Regarding the story of the scope, it's always wise to remember this. Buy the rifle (or in this case, the scope) and not the story. I always had my doubts about the supposed green colour having seen about a zillion of the scopes!
Thank you Peter for the heads up about the threads. I had a hunch that the scope was the normal brown for the pictures. I purchased it before the seller told me where he got it from. It is a nice scope and I think I can bring it back to look original.

Thanks!
