    Where would you think is a good place to list it?

    If it were a modern optic I would try to sell it on the equipment exchange here.

    However I am not sure how much traction this would get there.

    I mean, where do people who typically buy these type of AR acccessories look?

    thanks,

    damn didnt know they were worth that much, saw a guy and his son using these on they're ARs at a shooting match last summer... were these scopes considered to be any good?

    I believe the value has less to do with quality than it does in the fact they are as old as I am and say "Colt" on the tube, condition, box, etc.

    Is that right, though, with the lens unscrewed that far? Having that much thread exposed would make me worry.
    I do not ride to work in a helicopter or pretend to have insider information from my fifth cousin's friend about Delta Force, although I once served with a SEAL unit at Fort Monroe. It was a wedding party and I was 10. And no, I have not stopped talking about it.

    That is what threw me off at first.

    It is the way according to the manual and it is the only way I can get it to have a clear picture.

    I have the same scope and I'm wondering...

    When you focused it, what range did you do it at?
    I was looking at the house down the street from me (c. 100yrds or more) and mine isn't unscrewed half that much.
    Were you at a closer range?

    1. It was only about 25 yards away.

    2, It depends on your individual eyesight.
