Colt scope for SP1

**SFG(A)** · 07-14-2009 12:47 PM

Does anyone have the instruction booklet for a Colt scope (3X) that was made in Japan icon

. It has a single screw that is mounted through the carrying handle of older Colt AR's like the SP1? I was curious about the procedure for zeroing it. Thanks in advance.

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles.

Make sure the scope is securely mounted on the rifle. Place the rifle in a secure mount, remove the bolt, look at a target bulls-eye (thru the bore) at 100 yds. Set the bullet drop compensator (the large top knob) at 1 to 2 Adjust the windage/elevation screws to the center of the bulls-eye. Or...use a bore sight. This should get the rounds on the paper. At 100 yds one click is 1MOA(minute of angle). That is....one click will move the point of impact 1 inch. Fire 3 rounds and adjust accordingly.Repeat as necessary. I really like this little scope FWIW.

I don't have the manual for the 3X but, I could probably scan the manual from my 4X and email it to you?

That manual came in real handy! I've had a 4x scope for my M4 clone for a while and have been searching for the manual for a while...
