    Pistol / rifle scopes ?????

    Sorry if this sounds stupid but can anyone advise me on a scope that could be used on a pistol and rifle ? Mainly for plinking but good enough for the more ' serious ' work !

    Any ideas ? cheers

    You could try one of the small mag scopes. Simmons used to do a
    1.5 x 5 x 20.
    This would fit both rifle and pistol.
    You will obviously have to keep the physical size down.

    I know people say a pistol scope is overkill but for occasional use , I think it's fine ..
    I agree on the size as I could end up with a scope bigger than the pistol !!!!

    Thinking again about this Dave.
    I think you may have a problem with eye relief.

    You'll need about 3" on a rifle but about 18" on a pistol.

    I was about to say that too Rayton.
    It's either a pistol scope or you use a small rifle scope and adjust yr shooting style (arms bent). Why not use a red-dot or laser?
