Description:
UPDATE, 8,23,/2024:  Sale Pending to Kelly. 
 A gentleman called today and asked about the clarity of the scope.  I told him it was perfectly clear.  While the picture of the scope shows the 3 post reticle, it doesn't make it seem that clear in the picture.  But, I guarantee that it is.  My friend's camera has 3 lenses, and when you take pictures, the lenses automatically want to shift back and forth.  

For those that might be interested, I will try taking a pictue with a "Lower Quality" camera phone and posting it.  It may actually present a much better image than the one with the expensive camera phone.

For sale is a Zeiss Zielklen Scope.  It is in very good condition, considering the age.  The serial number is # 27327.  It was made in the late 1920's, according to the serial number.  Please note . . The camera images distort some of the flaws when pictures are taken up close.

There is some fading on the blue which I have pictured.  The focus adjustment is a little stiff, but works as it should.  No dents.  The scope has a German "3 Post" reticle, and the class is clear (which is typical of these great scopes).  The clarity is about the same as a newer scope.  The three posts are perfectly aligned.

With old metal items like this, you can get some "Flitz" polish, which is an anti-corrosion protector, and just keep rubbing the tube.  It "softens" the marks and speckles.  Dry it off, and then, rub oil on a silicone rag over the tube.  Repear.

Incidentally, I have used Birchwood Casey "Super Blue" and oil before to blend in and make metal look a lot better.  I did not touch this scope, however, as some people want things completely orignal.  If you want to know how I did this, just get in touch with me.

Shipping and insurance are additional.

Call or email if you have any questions.

Thank you.
