Gentlemen,
A friend of mine recently acquired an unusual (to me) Weaver scope. The front ring is pretty much standard, but the rear ring features elevation and windage knobs and is more or less integral with the scope itself. The scope tube itself features no internal adjustments. I believe he said it bore a "V8" in addition to the usual "Weaver... El Paso.." markings. In many respects, the concept is similar to the old Bausch & Lomb Balvar(?) scopes. I was completely unaware that Weaver ever marketed such an item.
Does anyone here have any info regarding approximate dates of manufacture of this type Weaver or links to a site that might provide additional info?
Thanks in advance.
