Whew, glad it made it here ok. Going to the range today tried calling to see if you'd want to shoot the new girl, maybe you'll see this and reply!

Well, like Rory said, summer vacation is over. So, today I've got to get all the stuff done around the house. So, I can start Fall vacation tomorrow at Barley& Hops. See you there.

I would hunt and shoot the heck out of that thing. The period correct optic system is very cool. All Ks are beautiful.

Looking at the picture above, where I'm holding the scope in my hand, by my little finger, I could see some writing. I took another pic, then blew it up. It's definitely a +7. This thing is Not 7 power. I looked at some boards by my wood pile, and they look smaller through the scope than they do with the naked eye. I tried to get a pic through the scope but couldn't get it lined up . It looks much better through the scope than the pic shows. But, the glass is dirty on the inside.

The scope/mount and brand are very cool!

Thanks, I think it's a Novske, but I can't find any marks. When John found it several years ago, there was quite a bit about Noske on line. Now all you can find is Noveske stuff for AR's.

Gee, I forgot all about those initials being yours...you were meant to have it. I just got back from backpacking, was worrying over it arriving. Glad you got it and like it. I did some research and was convinced that the scope was a Novske, but... Were you able to take it down?

No, the spring on the latch beat me. The arthritis in my thumbs is bad enough I couldn't pull down on the latch, and out on the forearm at the same time. I did take the scope off, and the mount looks like it will return to zero time after time. My initials are actually JMB, but, close enough. I'm going to letter this one, wish JTC was still doing the letters. I've got something heading for your PO Box. Not sure if I'll get it off this week, likely will be next week. Thanks again.

Oh, I think you said the initials were the original owners? Did you know that for a fact? Just the way they are joined they look like a cattle brand.

I don't know. The shop had no info, unfortunately. I can see that it looks like a brand, just sorta figured itd be the owners initials. I got the forearm off fine, couldn't get the barrel off, didn't want to try any harder. Rifle would really be something (as far as collecting) minus the mount and initials, eh? The glass is interesting, I wasnt sure whether to say wavy or dirty or...
Now back to finding that reasonable 358 brush gun...
