I picked an old Kaps at a gun show once... maybe $100... and maybe 40 years old.

I must say... it is damn impressive glass... close to the class of a Kahles... almost.

26mm tube was a PITA however... I remember reaming the rings was irritating, but the only option I had (spec rings were 99.9% impossible to find).

It sits on a CZ-550 medium in 9,3x62 Mauser... and makes for a good combination.


Rifle came to me as a parts gun... stock (Hogback) was a disaster on "bedding" (unset JB weld or puddy?). Hogback is a TERRIBLE FIT for me... made some mods... final finish is textured silicon (odd yes... but very grippy)... I may restock later... or not.

If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.
