M84 scope?

**rice 123** · 03-22-2010 07:55 AM

I am looking at a M84 scope the data plate has no serial number and the plate is a blue color not black. Is this a legit USGI? or arepro? or a put together from parts?

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.

Don't know, but repros have been on the market for about six months. Made in Taiwan, I think?

New M84 scopes have been on Wayne Machine Inc's (Taiwan) product list for over five years.

Its a Repro. All USGI M-84's have a black nameplate with a serial number... Look here, looks like it has no serial number and a blued type of plate. Call them and ask...

Yes, but repro data plates are available. Scope could be legit with a repro data plate.

Stu, If you look at the M-84 he is looking at on EBay, the seller is VERY careful to only advertise the carry case as USGI...

Well, just to add some information ------ about 15 years ago Sarco bought a bunch of demilled M84's & parts, including ID plates with & without a SN. They contracted with a scope tech to break them down & assemble complete scopes. So, technically, these can be called "USGI", but are really "parts" scopes.

Probably not the scope you are describing, but...
