I posted this on the airguns forum also

I have a Swift 2-7x32 scope marked AIR GUN WA. It has no model number or country of manufacture marked on it. Its front bell AO m 7 yards to infinity. Fast focus. Semi target turrets and hex screw re-settable to zero.
What's strange is the quality. It has excellent glass. Sharp bright colorful and very clear. It almost looks wet. All the adjustments feel like they are the best the could be. It just doesn't seem to be a "Swift"

Does this little gem ring a bell with anyone?

Thanks in advance
Kragman

A little more info - it came in a non-descript black box simply marked 2-7x32 air gun scope. Again, no model, etc. and included a roughly 2" long sunshade.

I bought from a LGS that had bought 8 or 10 new old stock Swift scopes somewhere.
I'm wondering if it could have been a manufacturing sample that never became a catalog item for Swift.
Or maybe, once upon a time, they only made 1 air gun scope and didn't feel the need to give it any other identification.

Thoughts anyone?

Thanks,
Kragman
