 What is one of these worth anyways and can you still get end caps for them? Found one for 75 bucks that is in very good to excellent condition, no marks nicks or dings. It will go on my 6520. I do have to say that they "seem" to be built very well and actually are a bit heavier then I thought it would be. Are these all steel? No box or anything goes with it, save for the mount. Scope is actually made by ASIA Optical, any good? Seems to be pretty decent on light transmission.  And is there any way to date these? It is marked on the bottom AO 06 08       Made in Japan. Thank you.

It has the Colt [r] trademark on the top. I liked it as the adjudtment for eyesight is very good and I do not need glasses with it. Top turret is set 1-2  3   4   5, I would assume of course that it it a bullet drop adjustment?

I seen one once go on ebay for $400+.   It was NIB with the papers and leather lens covers.  The scope by itself is worth $200 or so, but the box, useless leather lens cover and papers worth the extra $150 or so......................................................................I'm thinking - NOT.

I've seen a few here go for anywhere between $150 and $250, most in the lower part of the range sell almost immediately.

I sold a well used one with excellent optics for $165 once.  The outside was pretty worn, but the glass was clear and scratch free.  I have another for SPF in excellent condition for $240, with the proper sized Butler Creek Lens covers.
