We have a 3-9 x 40 FFP IR left over from our brief excursion into LWS. I put it on a 308 for a laugh..........it worked fine and didn't fall to bits.
IMHO they're as good as any other Chinese made scope. 30mm tube, side mounted IR, coil spring etc. Very nicely made.

In fact, if he's got one in 6-24 or 8-32 x whatever, with a cross hair reticule in the second focal plane, and target turrets, I'd be interested.................

Old -yes. Top class scope with impeccable optics - yes. Not a high price on secondhand scopes like these. Won't ship - ask them and they usually agree!

In our opinion, if you need a scope to see a rhino you are either:

A. Not close enough

or

B. Very short sighted

One word - S H I T E

Young lad was swayed by the hype spouted by a dealer nearby and mounted one on his 22-250. It couldn't keep zero and the optics in taxing light was awful.

Mines held up for over 2000 rounds of .44 so far :good:

My other Gallery Rifle scope is a very nice Philippines Simmons Whitetail Classic 1.5-5x20, superb image quality :grin:
