hey fellas, just wanted to relate a amusing story that happened yesterday . i've put some gear for sale on ssaa gun sales site , one of which is a leupold vx3 2.5-8x36 scope . i bought it new in box from my local gun shop . i've owned quite a few loopys from new so i know what i'm looking at . two fellas made enquiry's, and seemed like they were very interested, so i asked the third person to contact me to hold off as there were two before him. anyway , haven't heard any more from the first two , so i sent the third fella pics as he requested . well blow me down this fellas sent me a nasty message accusing me of being a scammer trying to sell chinese junk
. normally i wouldn't pay too much attention to this sort of thing , but as i'm off work with a injury , i'm bored and i just had to reply to this sort of accusation. told me the screw in eyegaurd was actually part of a three peice occular bell , so it's a bogus loopy .i pointed out that it's a screw on accesory , apparently loopys don't come with a rubber eye gaurd on the occular bell. it's fake
sent him a pic of the screw in eye gaurd removed and the serial number and "made in the usa" off the bottom of the scope . apparently i threaded the occular bell or the pics was a clever fake
reminds me off all the "experts" that used to come out of the woodwork when i'd sell car parts in the "trading post' years ago . some folks just know everything ....
