    PPCo lenses

    I'm sure that I mentioned this earlier but can't find where........ But last calls for 1.37" diameter ocular lens, new made, to exact flint/crown glass spec, matched pairs for PPCo sniper telescope

    6 off £103 each (3 pairs) Total £618.00 = £206
    or
    16 off £72 each (8 pairs) £1,152.00 = £145

    Both plus post of course. Already have 2 pairs confirmed. If you want a set, speak now or forever hold your peace!

    Noted that one fellow, down here in Australia,is selling a "new" condition Pattern 18 scope body that has never had internals fitted.

    Understanding that there may be some sizing issues, due to it being of Australianicon manufacture, the scope body may interest someone who is also interested in your lenses.

    Attachment 34961
    Calibre/Item: Scope
    Make: Australian Optical Co
    Model: Pattern 1918
    Condition: Excellent
    Price: $1500
    Advertised: 30/05/2012
    Comment: Near new condition original Australian WW II Sniper scope for Lithgow SMLE
    For those interested the listing can be found under scopes at Used GunsScopes

    Not this time Paul as the lenses I am about to embark on are from the PPCo scope and not the Patt 18 variant. But if they fit.......
