Dellboy Posted August 19, 2022 Report Share Posted August 19, 2022 In my spare time i have decided to turn a tx1200 into a model 82 so any advice on a period looking modern scope ? original fit was Kahles ZF 95 i think and i need blocks and rings so i guess Norman Clark ?

TC Posted August 20, 2022 Report Share Posted August 20, 2022 Norman certainly had bases (steel for the m82) and rings in fact pretty much everything you’d need - bottom metal etc I bought an original M82 but did not have the diopter sight and they were able to make one up for me. ZF69 6x42 was I believe the common original scope but I’ve seen them with pecars too. I managed to find a ZF69 from an eBay seller in Germany but I’ve got a S&B PM1 on there at the moment. Have fun 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ds1 Posted August 20, 2022 Report Share Posted August 20, 2022 Many years ago Helston Gunsmiths had job lots ex police m82’s and m87’s in. The m87’s came with Pecar 4-10 scopes. The PH actions were actually made in Spain I believe. Helston may still be worth a call? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSG Posted August 20, 2022 Report Share Posted August 20, 2022 Interesting project. I used Enforcers and some lighter PH rifles in .222. Both had Pecar scopes on which were a pain in the backside to keep zeroed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reecy Posted August 20, 2022 Report Share Posted August 20, 2022 Piece of trivia The Parker Hale action and bolts that were sourced from Spain were known as the Santa Barbara actions atb Reecy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M41B Posted August 29, 2022 Report Share Posted August 29, 2022 I’ve got a set of the 26mm Parker Hale rings if you are interested, still in the box (not the original box I’m afraid) and appear unused Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dellboy Posted October 27, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2022 Norman Clark came up trumps what brilliant guys to deal with got everything to do the job except the scope rings and a bipod (forgot to ask re bipod) The Trafalger meet turned up a Pecar 6x45 with rings (although i might look for something higher mag ) So a Bipod in on the needed list ..
