    The old 70s issue gold crowns were made in Japan. Think they were steel and meant to be relatively robust cost effective scopes but the glass not up to the level of the better ones.

    They ain't all dodgy. I believe gundoc was one of their go-tos back in the day and a friend at the gun club has done some work for them and I would get him to do work for me. But I am picking up...

    That looks stunning. Always thought they would be quite a cool rifle but that is just wicked. Love the 6 leaf express sight

    Gee that's a bugger. Especially for some of the older good scopes. Pita to send them back to factory but from what I hear the likes of Kahles etc. do a very good job

    Just to piss you off I think the 1.5-5 on the 416 is a matte jobbie. Good little scopes. I reckon a firefox ( never used one but a fan of the concept like my oeg) would work well with my left master...

    Richard Wilhelm was a primo scope fixer back in the day. Might be worth a ring/visit.

    There is a p14 bsa sporter in 45/70 in retardme at the moment. 100 year old rifle with a 150 year old cartridge but it isnt a sharps. That would be quite a cool one

    Mate and his fellow shooters used to do that to their 22s shooting bunnies off the landrover bonnet many years ago. Lost mag was a real buzzkill
