That looks like an M84 scope. Those were probably available in the supply system, but they were only 2.5X. Not bad for the type of terrain in that pic, though. I really have no idea about the mounts; Redfield, Williams...or whatever they could get.

the early variant of the Leatherwood ART??

Can't be a MARINE, not enough equipment for the body stature.

The URL of the pic leads to a 101 Airborne LRRP/Ranger site. The photographer was Army.

Just reading old posts. I have a Vietnam bringback Win 70. It was shipped to the US Navy in 1965, has an M84 scope and was captured back from the NVA by the 101st in 1969...
