    MVA A or B series vintage scopes ?

    Does anyone on the forum have experience with the MVA A or B series vintage scopes?

    I already have a hi-lux 3x Malcolm and want to try and decide if its worth spending almost twice as much on the MVAs

    Or if i stick with the hi-lux and buy twice as many vintage scopes.

    The 3x Malcolm i have is a great functional scope. But the finishing is pretty average. But i guess thats all you can expect for $315 US

    I have several projects slowly coming together that will be needing vintage glass on board and need to olan ahead with permits and gun runners required !

    What are the details of the smoke stick? Is that a LH lock or is the image reversed.
