The scope is "I really don't know what". It is not a "known repro" by the configuration of the turret block. It is too rough for the know repro's and it is a different shape as well. The turret block is proud between the the plate and the mount. Compare it to a regular scope in a mount. I am wondering if it MIGHT be one of the Italianscopes made after the war. It sure is not a British
No.32 and is not a known repro. At least with the offset turrets it is not marked Mk. III then we'd know we have a ringer.
I do have some pictures of an Italian made No. 32 scope somewhere here so if I can find it I'll post it and then we can continue with this.
The lock rings do appear to be steel as there is not any brass showing on the worn areas, so my hypothesis on that aspect is blown.
