Description:
The sale of modern, crap scopes will go on forever but the supply of old, reliable ones must end . . . at least at prices you can afford.
Why are modern scopes 'crap', you ask?
Because almost all contain a space-occupying 'lesion' that can bounce around under recoil and needs a heavy field stop to mask flare, which reduces field of view but adds tunnel vision. The first photo shows what this thing can look like (plus a hint about why it broke down).
How can you recognise the old scopes that don't have this travesty called an erector tube?
Read a book that explains the matter and what to look for - before the best old scopes cease to be parted with, or go through the roof as collectibles:
'LIGHT AT THE START OF THE TUNNEL - Are rifle scopes off the rails?' (approx. A5, 152pp, incl. 28 colour pages) traces the descent of modern riflescopes from their golden age after WWII through the dubious 'advances' seen since.
The $20 price, plus $4.30 postage, includes 24 pages of additional information to be sent by email; other options with additions printed: $30-$45 posted.
