Riflecraft are importing the Malcolm copy of the Unertl - nice item, saw one at Newark

I lucked out & picked up a genuine Unertl 20x a few years back...not on a gat just yet, but have plans for it...

Saw one of the Tasco scopes 10 years or so back at the then Leeds Armoury Arms Fair - it even had a box!

Hi Dave.....thanks for that....I had a look at the Malcolm scopes for my 45/100 Rolling Block....they are good scopes and not too expensive.

I would really like to get the Parker-Hale as it would be "in period" for my .303" match rifle....plus the rifle has the Parker Hale pads already installed....I will keep looking but if I cannot find one I will probaly go for the Malcolm because it does at least look a little like the period ones...

Hope you find one , have you looked at ebay , search under Parker Hale , Vintage rifle scope , used rifle scope and old rifle scope .
This is my BSA MkII lightweight [ same rifle ] with a PH and the second one is unmarked but Identical to a Fecker . Last one I saw a few months ago was over £250 .
