    Too many scopes!!

    Too many scopes for guns......
    I have too many scopes for my guns, I have (being unused) a Meopta 4x32, vortex Diamondback 3-9, vortex viper 4-12 and a docter zf 6x42 sat in the garage. Now I love these scopes but I don't have any guns to put them on. So what do you do?! I don't want to sell the Meopta or the viper for definite. I could sell the docter but the diamond back is my "spare" scope I think.
    So what do I do?? I don't really want to buy another 2 guns just for the viper & the Meopta do I?!
    Anyone else have this issue?

    You are obviously undergunned mate, go out and buy a rifle right now, don't stop and ask the missus just pick up your wallet and keys and buy an air rifle. You know it makes sense

    Ok.... Fine. I'll buy another gun. So what should I buy that the 4-12 would suit & what should I buy that the 4x32 would suit?

    I've decided against the kral... I sourced a new shroud for the huntsman & it's shooting Bob on again now. I do have eyes for another PCP but only lusting as you do. I want to try an hw100 & a wildcat but for no practical use other than I like them!! Springers however have no practical use so I could just have a few of them. They are cheaper too!
    The Meopta would go nice on a 99s or 30s ��
    Maybe a 97 for the 4-12 aaaaaaggggghhh!!! I don't have money for guns!! I'm saving for a motorcycle! bloody toys!!

    Spare scopes are seldom worth anything very much to sell, maybe £50?
    but would cost £200+ to replace with similar quality (if it was cheap rubbish you wouldn't have kept it) so just keep it/them tucked away "just in case"
