This CABELA'S ALASKAN GUIDE 2.5x32 scope was a gift from a friend.
It came with an AR15 carry handle mount and Weaver rings, all hooked up, ready to go.
It appears to be a 1-pc. tube with a nitrogen purge valve cover on the saddle section. The ocular section doesn't have a lock ring. The windage/elevation turrets have the finger adjustable feature.
I can't seem to find any info on the web about this particular model.
If anyone has information or links, please post about it.

I'd like to know a few things:
1. Who is the likely manufacturer of the scope?
2. Anyone have one? like or dislike it?
3. Any other info you have is welcome.

Thanks for the assist.

Have you tried a phone call to them?

It's probably a Pacific rim made scope that will work fine against scopes in the same price range. it's an $80 scope so it's no VX 3.

Thanks, I saw that page already.
I spoke with the Gentleman that gave it to me.
He says it was $119.00 on sale, and over $200.00+ retail.
The scope is not the Pine Ridge $80.00 version, that's for sure.

When I mentioned it might be a KONUS, he says that may be correct.
I'll check out the KONUS site to see if there's anything similar.
I do have a TASCO TITAN 1.25-4 30mm scope that is a 1-pc. tube/ Nitrogen-filled unit that works well on my AR10.

It was that or $1,000.00+ for a Euro-scope...I bought other stuff with the leftover funds. grin

Truly shocked to have found this information.
I hope it might help someone else wondering about what the heck this scope is!
