Unertl info request

[Farmall-130]

I have a Unertl scope: 24 3/4? long, 3/4? tube, 1 1/2? objective. It?s mounted on a H&R Model 12 rifle. Scope s/n 35789, #14 stamped on tube (assume 14 power). When was it made? Are there any manuals available? Did Unertl have a ?name? for this style scope? I would post a pic but haven?t figured that out yet.

Pictures would help determine which Unertl scope you have.

is the 14 stamped on the tube or on the ring towards the rear?

and yes, that is likely the power,

good match on the H&R Mod 12m

and overall great scopes,


there is limited info on the models etc on the web,

This guy has a good website with some info on types etc, as well as some for sale,

edited to add, sometimes you can find literature on ebay for sale,

lyman, yes the 14 is stamped on the ring, not the actual tube. Rifle/scope shoots very well, my ?one hole gun?. I?ve checked several websites for info. But I wanted to know the year of manufacture in order to obtain the correct manual.

I hope I’ve attached a pic of the scope correctly.

yep, pic came thru fine,

you have a 1-1/2" calibrated head target scope,

as far as serial numbers,


supposedly there is a yahoo group that has serial numbers in a database, but I do not belong and don't trust yahoo,

this post has a scope a couple thousand from yours, so probably a year off? (as in yours may be 1955)

lyman, thanks for the reply. You?ve put me on the right path. The hunt for a scope manual begins.

good luck

unertl's, Lyman's etc are addictive, just like the .22 rifles they go on
