Rifle Scopes Can You I.D. These Rings?? **Update**

[3bnRanger]

I'm told they're Leupold Mark 4 rings but I don't think so. Badger Ordnance maybe?

Update:
I heard back from the seller of these rings and he explained he bought them from a local gunshop back in 2005. According to Scsheriff's post in this thread, these could possibly be the older style Mark 4 rings. I guess my question now would be if they are worth $80/shipped?

Look alot like my badger ordnace rings. But I could be wrong.

Do the rings have numbers on them? I believe all Badgers are serialized.

I don't think they are Leupold Mark 4 rings. The design of the ring cap looks different. The top of the Leupold has a circular design to it, the ones you posted do not. Look at these pictures:

Also, Badger rings have Torx (T-15 - IIRC) ring cap screws, yours *look* like Allen head screws?

One other thing. On the Badgers I've had, the cross bolt doesn't protrude much past the face of the nut. Yours seem to stick out a good bit more.

Not sure about the other brands... but there are index grooves on one side of my TPS rings where the top and bottom meet... might be worth a look... no obvious external branding either

I had a set of older mark 4's before the new design came out and they looked EXACTLY like that.

How long ago was the redesign?

Your pic looks like a match!

T.p.s say that on the bottom half of the ring.

They look like Badger rings due to the cut above center design.
