Hensoldt Wetzlar scope with SS markings

[norway]

I have no idea what a scope like that is worth, I got the original casing with "serial" number etc.

If anyone can point me to the right direction where i can sell it or get a quote I would be greatful.

Steyr of Austria had the contract for the Waffen SS, when it came to 98K rifles. These were BNZ 43 and BNZ 44 orBNZ4. Usually 1 or 2 SS Runes and a code at receiver and barrel, left side. Or a Death's head stamp, or both. I once read the contract was approximately 100,000 rifle, many had no SS markings, just blocks of serial codes.
As for scopes I have seen matching numbers to a rifle once that was alledgedly an SS sniper rifle, but no SS marks that were made on optic prior to May 45. None that I have seen, and I have seen a lot of sniper rifles.
German Shultzstaffel gear was usually what most of the Wehrmacht used, but there were exceptions. Of all the vets I known, none were SS, so none have passed onto me direct info., all us collectors would like to know.
