I've had this for at least 40years. I think I bought it second hand.
Was on my 30.30 and brno m2. Now on my grandsons brno m2.
Still a dam good clear scope.
Anyone know a bit of history about them?
Just being curious.

Zenison = Venison on the table.
But seriously,,,,,, after WW 2 and the Japanese started copying & building stuff that was exported to many countries,,,, it was mostly crap.

Most stuff out of Japan these days is good quality stuff.
