What is it Worth? Older Leupold Mark 4 10x

[diggler1833]

NOT SELLING, JUST CURIOUS ABOUT WHAT THEY RUN THESE DAYS.

I have a ca. 2000 Leupold Mark 4, 10x with M3 dial (168gr only), that came with an old first gen FN SPR that I bought about a decade ago. The glass is as good as Leupold made back then, no scratches or issues. Honestly, the scope is in 95%+ condition. The only real drawback is that the elevation dial is mushy AF...but it is repeatable...I've killed 9 deer through this scope and each time the dial matched a dead animal.

I know that these have become a tad more desirable to collectors. I have a better one on my M24 (and maybe I should have posted this in the "vintage" sub-forum). I'm at a personal crossroads of either using this on an M14 build several years down the road, or moving it. The biggest downside is that if I decide that I need one again I don't want to be out $$$.

I can't find squat on the internet right now - other than a single Gunjoker listing for $2,100 (and I'm thinking that guy is smoking something).

Anybody have a clue on what the going rate is for these now?

All over the place. I sold a painted one (I painted it) for 750 and bought one locally for 500 with a sun shade/good tight turetts. It might sell better/more if it’s sent back to Leupold/reworked and has a clean bill of health.

One sold on here with M1 turrets for 900.

Yeah, I'd considered sending it in to Leupold to get some of the mush out. I didn't do it though, because I didn't want to mess with my primary deer rifle for several years because it just worked.

While it is off the rifle, now would be the perfect time. It probably won't go back on that one either.

Your input is appreciated.
