Went to the Honey Hole.....

[pmclaine]

Lots of nice guns but what caught my eye today were scopes.

Someone must have passed that had a Finn/Baltic sniper fetish.....Anyone know what these are?

First... Nice leather case...

Soumi Armi?

Second looks like a PEM type scope for a Moisin - Valmet. In card board box in tube mailer from Finnland.

Straight tube scope with elevation only approx 5-6 inches in length - reminds me of Russian PEM sniper scope.

Sucky pictures so hard to get good pics in the shop.

Third a Schmidt and Bender from a border guard unit...seems like its priced high. Nice clicks on turetts appear to be BDC style. All scopes are post type reticle......

Pretty sure the wetzlar is a German made scope but could be wrong

So side company to S&B? Seen a few different kinds of mounts as I look around. Interesting and neat for sure. The million dollar question is did you buy any or all?

Isn’t @sirhrmechanic the historian here. He has posted some pics with old German scopes recently

Not my genre but happy to help anyone building some Finn sniper.

Honestly not my cup of tea either. Carbines and small pistols always kept me tied up. I do like to look at the rifles and scopes are always neat regardless of what they were made for.

That S&B is a real nice scope.

Not really a post reticle person but its nice steel, turrets are clicky solid, guessing the BDC turret is for some caliber I will never own.

Did it have any type of mount with it?

No mounts.

Not expert as @buffalowinter on these guys.

Neat scopes. That S&B is amazing!

Cheers,

Those scopes are for the Finnish TKIV 85 and M28-76. Extremely rare in the US

@pmclaine this honey hole of yours I think I may want to take a detour to my next trip up there; can they sell to anyone or only residents of MA?
