Schmidt Bender 10x42 Klassik scope bargain

Post by buster » 10 Nov 2013, 11:26 am

Took a bit of a chance at a garage sale two week ago where the owners were clearing out a bunch of stuff left over from the last people from the looks of it.

In the piles I found Schmidt Bender 10x42 Klassik scope. Couldn't test it to make sure it held zero and hadn't been dropped or anything obviously but they were only asking for $300 so took the chance and scooped it up. Looks as new so was feeling confident.

Picked up some rings and took it to the range today, blood perfect.

Pretty stoked about getting a Schmidt Bender for $300 :D

Mate $300 for a Schmidt & Bender is a steal.

Plenty of Pro's using Schmidt & Bender.

If the scope's in good working order you got the deal of the year.
See you on the firing line.

Thing is I already had two fine scopes.

Good excuse to buy a new rifle :lol:
