I know many of you have or use vintage optics. Lets see some pics of them.

Hello Grumpy!

What a wonderful topic.  Thanks for posting.

Here is a pic of a rarity, check out the aluminum wheel just behind the eyepiece.  Walther LG 55 from 1963.

Greetings from Germany,

Robert

Hmmm, I guess this means I need to get the camera out. :D
I have three Beeman Blue Ribbon models, and an old rimfire rifle scope made in Japan, and sold/marketed by Kmart stores, probably all from the 70's. :)

I too still need to take some pics of mine. I have a vintage Weaver .22 rifle scope which I found at a gun show. It is a great little scope, I will try and get some pics up soon.

Not sure how old this scope is but it came off of a 1968/9 Browning BAR. It has a neat flip up post. Sorry for the bad cross-hair pics.  :P
