I just picked up a vintage (yet in excellent condition) 1" gloss tube scope w/ External Adjustments on the REAR ring; with the front ring fixed. It is marked "Weaver Adjustable" on the rear mount, 2.5-8X in power.
Questions - Anyone ever see one or have a manual for it? I did email Weaver already, but their page of 'legacy' products did not go back that far for this scope. Based on my experience with Unertl scopes, also of ext adjustments, I'm thinking that the front tube ring should be loosened before making adjustments to the rear, for windage of elevation. Wouldn't you agree?
The reticle is wicked funky! I will be putting this on a vintage wood-stocked 22LR, and was thinking of sighting in the top line for 25 or 50 yards, then seeing where the other lines impact. Just for fun ...
FYI, the glass and reticle are extremely clear, this is just the Seller's ad photo ...
