Johnathan. You might want to remove your post and run the entire process by a mod before proceeding.

Rule #3

If an item is posted for sale outside the Post Exchange, the post will immediately be removed and the user will be banned for 30 days with no notice, as the forum rules are considered the initial warning.
 
So, this has probably been answered somewhere in the thread and or forum. But i had a topscrew mount now corrected to bottom screw. How does scope leveling and scope ring torquing work? Any suggestions? I literally got it back an hour before i had to leave on a trip.

If you’re talking about a Transitional build, with Redfield SA700 base and Med. under screw rings, here’s the thread you need in Vintage Sniper:

Redfield scope rings and base, tacked?​

Talked to their production manager like 2 years ago and he said no way they would do a run again. One guys opinion though and given the less than widespread use of their optics this might be a ploy to get people talking uso again.

If they do do this run and it's not an April 1st joke (i don't think they are popular enough to screw with people like that. For their sake I hope they aren't) i wonder if we can convince them to refurbish ones we already have. I got an old return I'd like run through them with seals replaced and a fresh charge of possible.

Ironsight did a rebuild on my usmc 10x

15 days early doesn't sound plausible for a joke. Day before April 1st or on April 1st....yeah I'm a stupid asshole....you got me. If sales guys are fucking with customers 15 days early. Boss might be like get back to work boys.

Plus there's been a scope sign up list thread for a while now.

Yeah, I doubt it’s a joke. The interest thread on here is different though, it wasn’t through USO. Now they could have gauged interest off of the thread for sure.
 
Yes the April fools joke was brought up as well!
This is 100% real!
I just got a call out of the blue from USO, because I called several years ago and my name was put on a list of interested people.
They are making 100 units available on a first come first serve basis.
They will be made domestically.
Plan on shipping in November.

Perhaps all those repro McMillan M40A1 smear stocks from 2024 drove up demand/inquires for another run of this classic scope?
I think it's great that they are making a batch, and we might have McMillan Fiberglass Stocks to thank for this limited run of scopes.
