I am going to post a WTB on a used TA01 ACOG Beater scope.  I know that at somepoint if I do this, especially on an older scope, that I will have to have the tritium lamp refilled and that is no big deal.

My question is however, is there any difference between a TA01 made 10 years ago and a brand new one now.  I understand the recticle to be the same as well as the mount.  But what about the quality and durability.  I didn't know if Trijicon had any bugs that they had to iron out back then.

I plan on spray painting this thing, so I am looking to save some money so I don't have to spray a brand new one and lose my ass if I ever want to sell it.
