    who services old redfelid scopes

    I picked up a sweet mint (looking) old redfeild fixed 24x target scope at a fundraseing auction on new years eve its mint in the outside and adjustments etc work well as far as I can tell but it has a little moisture inside just dots of it on the lens would still be useable as is but I know these old red fields are a bit sort after so my plan is to get it fixed up is there any one that dose this?

    I payed next to nothing for it (the rings on it were worth more than I payed) so if its a dud its not a major

    this shouldn't need new parts just a clean up and refill with nitrogen

    yeah I think I got a bit of a good deal the scope in its original box with a set of millet match 22 rings and a set of alen keys also found some spare nipples for my musket in the box aswell and paid the grand sum of $45

    Andrew said if it is what I think it is he will be able to fix it all up for around $80

    so for around $160 I scored a mint little scope plus extras
    pretty happy with that
