RGK, your rifle is absolutely beautiful with the gloss Leupold! I personally believe gloss scopes make for a more beautiful rifle especially on older rifles that use a deeper bluing. I have a CZ 452-2E Custom Tribal at 98% with no scratches or dings in a box with all paperwork. Bought it several years ago from a fellow who stated he was afraid to hunt with it because he didn't want to damage it. Ive yet to mount a leupold 3x9x33 efr on it but its coming soon as soon as I make out my next order list for some rings. I use the Burris Signature Rimfires with nylon inserts so I don't leave marks on my scope. My 452-2E has nice grained walnut. As to the gentleman who started this post I must say mine is not for sale to profit a couple hundred dollars. Once its gone it's gone. 4 or 5 tanks of diesel in my old truck and the profit is gone too!
