Optics Vintage Finn Sniper S&B scope for Mosin variant for sale...

[pmclaine]

Ive been told this is a Vintage Finn Mosin variant sniper.

Tag from the collectors estate states it was given to Latvia via Finland when the curtain fell. I dont know what the "250" references but if it is what he paid, that is significantly less than what I paid and certainly I hope his estate received more than $250.

Its a very solid Schmidt and Bender. Kind of reminds me of the MC1 Kollmorgens and would stand in as a good clone for one of those.

Optics are clear. Has a "German Point" style reticle. Elevation turret appears to be a BDC style.

$1000.00

Glass shows some storage fogging....

a little distilled water and a cotton swab showed it will remove.....

Ocular adjustment works free and smooth....

Note - Green leather case is not part of this sale. That scope has sold.

Wish I knew more about them.

My local shop put these on the "rack" and I felt they needed to be saved. "These" as there was a Wetzlar, marked SA, in a green leather case also.

If Im out of line on pricing let me know.

I think the Army versions had a bigger ocular than the Border Guard units.

Similar rifle set ups.
