I lucked up and picked it up used from one of the forum members for about $60 if I remember correctly..But yea the breech cost more than the rifle new 😅GMAC has a CNC-made barrel band but it's for their multi-shot breech and for the 13xx.Would a 13xx barrel band work on the 362 if the breech was still standard?Moreover, is the 362 barrel band part of that "extended" faux forearm?That was my thinking on it.. 13xx should be the one I need.. I just have find one that has the same barrel height as this one and ill be golden.Looks like to use it I would have to do some more plastic trimming in order to make room for it

I have 2 of them on Daisy 35s and I'd love to set the focus closer.Go Here on You Tube I have done it on other scopes and from the looks of things it will work on this scope. My CVLife 3x9 AO scope is OK, but it is very heavy --- Cutting the weight way down will make the gun easier to carry, the brightness will increase also because of less glass to look through. --- For me 4X is really all I need on a pumper like this -- Right now I shoot the 3x9 at 5X and leave it there, many of my scopes are 4X.They are out of the 3/8" mounted scope combo BTW.wll

It is one of them scopes that if you wear glasses for seeing distance it is a little blurry, I have to look over my glasses to get a clear image of detailed fine print targets, but I can get the pellets in the same hole with it so it does work, and better than them scopes that Daisy sells for the 880 for about the same $. I have not attempted to adjust the objective yet on mine, it may help, also they look like they have ocular adjustment but can not get that to budge without a vice or the like and would most likely break things.
Just guessing but I think the Buck Rail scope is the an unbranded Cvlife or Sorovee scope. They run $29 on Amazon and eBay, they come with a crosshair or 'rangefinder' backup camera style reticle. I have one from 2020 that I got for an old .22 Lr and it works fine but I dont know if parallax is an issue at 10m or not.Does anybody know?
I have this compact CV life scope on my PR900: It just barely works at 30' and can be adjusted for pretty much anything above that. I had hoped to mount my night vision camera setup and use it for rat shooting, but I didn't realize the eye bell was a smaller diameter than a standard rifle scope. The included rings are also super tall, so I ordered a pair of low profile and a pair of medium-low profile rings from another amazon vendor. Also the included rings are for a pic rail, so another reason for the other rings which are dovetail. I also have the other more compact CV Life scope on my .45 Challenger and love it. The laser pointer intermittently works, but I didn't buy it for the laser. Not sure if it would work at 10m, but it might.

Got the $20 4X scope in !!! Took it out of its bubble wrap (No Box) and immediately set the eyepiece so the X hairs were clear. I then gave the front end of the bell a twist, it turned. Was lightly fastened with some type of black ? of some type, I easily broke that loose and then turned the inside threaded front section about 2+ turns counter clockwise and set the parallax to ~30 yards and then tightened the front bell ---- WA LA !!This scope seems pretty well made and is perfect for small air guns.... It is pretty darn sharp for what it is and how basic it is -- it's a very, very good scope for $ spent IMHO..I will put it on my C362 using the 3/8" mounts that are already on the gun. The Picatinny rings that came with it BTW are pretty cheap !This scope is a scope that I have been looking for, for a long time to put on short mid powered airguns. This 4X scope is WAY WAY lighter than the 3x9 CVLife scope that is on my C362 now.We will see how this 4X scope does when I'm out in the field this weekend !Pic of Buck Rail 4X Scope Below:wll
