Old Weaver KV scope
« on: February 12, 2009, 06:11:46 AM »
I removed an old (appx 55 yr old) Weaver scope from a 270 deer rifle to replace it with a 3x9.  It is stamped KV and Top-1" on it.  The rings on both end appear to be a bit worn and appear to be brass.  Question-- Does this scope have any monetary value?

In real good shape it should go for $ 75 to $ 80, or at least that`s what I would price it for. I have move several old Weaver scopes that I have gotten in trades and my price is based on what I have been able to move them for in a short while.

I have aa question.  When changing power, which way do you twist the power ring to increase the power.  I once had a Weaver that was backward from my other scopes.

Can't help you on that one.  My old KV is fixed and the only adjustment is focus which is a chore at best.
