topscots1 Posted July 21, 2020 Report Share Posted July 21, 2020 The turrets look like Mark 4. Leupold has a website where you can check the serial number. the mark 4 is one of the most copied/faked scopes in the world. have your mate check the serial number. They are decent scopes.

Scf31 Posted July 25, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2020 Well leupold have got back to us about the age of the scope and they say its not a copy and that it was made in 2003 I didn't think it was this old the condition its in is great, my mate is now on about selling it but unsure what to ask for it as there is nothing with it ie box/manual etc, anyone any idea what this is worth, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave thorniley Posted July 25, 2020 Report Share Posted July 25, 2020 from the pics you have of the scope if it was mint i would say £750 tops £800 a used but good condition with no marks on lenses £650 tops dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scf31 Posted July 26, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2020 Ah was sorta thinking in round the £500 mark, I must put in the for sale section or try ebay maybe, he won't use it he has his mind made up on a vortex scope, thanks for getting back to me dave 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Cat Posted August 10, 2020 Report Share Posted August 10, 2020 I've no wish to hijack your thread but I'm in a very similar position having a Leupold scope that I'd like to change for (maybe) a Vortex. I'm keen to see how this works out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
