“The scope and rings arrived in style and I got them mounted and sighted-in on my '99. I could not be more pleased. Incredible service - the type seldom found these days. Thank you Vintage Gunscopes for carrying on a great American tradition.”
Read MoreAt Vintage Gun Scopes, we don’t sell used scopes. We meticulously recondition our scopes so they can once again be relied on as they were before 50 years of aging stiffened grease and fogged glass. Each scope is reconditioned to like-new working order, meeting or exceeding factory specifications. Our handy guide will help you understand the components in each level of reconditioning offered when you purchase from Vintage Gun Scopes.
