If u already have it then it's probably marginally worth fixing. The optics are ok but nothing like what you get from a new leupold. I got an old k4 fixed with iron sight and it took a year, the optics are fine til it gets low light then you start getting a little handicapped. But I hunt hogs in texas at night but for deer 30 minutes after sunset it's mostly ok, just not as bright as newer scopes. Mostly I stick with the leupold so or zeiss unless I have a rifle that somehow seems to fit with a vintage weaver.
