Having seen this from other collector forums plus having learnt that it does happen that a gun can be reunited with its matching numbers mount/scope I thought it would be a good idea if we would also have a thread for it. The idea is to post some basic information (or more, if you want to) on your gun that had lost its original scope. Especially essential is that the information you provide minimum contains:
- What gun you have (e.g. K98k, K.43, ...)
- What serial your gun is (if with Suffix, then post it with Suffix)
- What type of mount you are looking for (Long Side Rail, Turret Mount, ZF4 mount, ..)
It is mandatory to post the serial number in written text and not via a picture!
There is a very simple reason for this: if you write your serial number Google search will be able to find it, what will not happen with only pictures showing serials. Especially when scopes turn up in online auctions anyone could open Google, search for the rifle serial and if it is on this list in here, it will show up as result. I'm sure another member here will make the person searching for it aware (best would be via PM, by the way, to not go past the forum rules).
While not necessary I'll try to re-post all information in the starting thread, as long as I can edit it, so that its easy for private individuals to see all searches without having to search through all posts. Mods are also encouraged to edit my post, I don't know if it happens that I become too lazy or if something else happens with me.
