i can not recall where i read it or who said it, but i distinctly remember talk of a company putting together a good reliable replica of the unertl 8 power
I would like to find out, i would buy one if price was reasonable, and i would think that a quality scope could be had for 300.00 to 500.00, i know pretty high on the big end but i also know what a fiasco the gibbs scopes have turned out to be and they were and are not cheap, On my target at the Eastern games XXX XXXXX had a gibbs reproduction A4
and it was off paper at 300 yards and no matter what the man did, it would not change, he could do nothing, he finished the match with a borrowed riffle,
day before the match there was a "class/lecture/orientation" whatever you wanted to call it, I attended it, and it was basically a "Buy Gibbs" talk and he discussed the problems with scopes and said he would offer a return/upgrade for so many dollars
then they said that the scope was not intended for anything over 100 yards..
Sorry, but i researched all sales literature and sales ads and could find nothing that said the "scope good for 100 yards only"
wasn't the gibbs repro a china made scope???
Yes i would pay for a reliable scope, in a heartbeat, I have a '41 USMC but sure aint gonna take it out and shoot it, hell my grandkids could go to college for what it is worth
comments???
