Sparkypete Posted April 20, 2021 Report Share Posted April 20, 2021 Hi guys Im new to the site. I was wondering how much a Schmidt & Bender PM6x42 would sell for. It’s off an L96 and in original green. It has some superficial damage, mainly a few scratches. Please see picture cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy W Posted April 20, 2021 Report Share Posted April 20, 2021 Depends on the reticle They have been on the market over the last few years from £500 - £800 Unless someone needs one to go on an L96/L96 replica or an L42 with the special bracket they are just a 6x42 scope. What reticle does it have? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkypete Posted April 20, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2021 Hi Roy it is similar to the German #1 reticle but it doesn’t have the horizontal bars, just the vertical post and fine cross hairs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy W Posted April 21, 2021 Report Share Posted April 21, 2021 If it is this one, then it is UK Military If it is a cross hair, in which the lower vertical leg is thicker than the other three then it is one of the Irish Army scopes that were traded in, the rifles went to the US (Gunsite) and the scopes were sold off in the UK.

Roy W Posted April 21, 2021 Report Share Posted April 21, 2021 Yep, that's an Irish Rifle reticle. AI bought back Irish L96's in p[art exchange for AW's. 35 I believe, the details are in Steve Houghton's new book, and sold them off to the US. The scopes were sold off separately and many are still in the UK, including yours. So it's a genuine AI scope, but not from a British L96. Not as desirable. £500-700 if you can find the right buyer I would say Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
