Hi folks. Can i get a valuation please.
Optima Gamekeeper 1.5-4 × 16
I touched up the bright bits with a Sharpe which really shows up on camera but is almost imperceptible in daylight.
There is a small amount if backlash on the zoom ring and the ring denoting focus range needs a wee spot of glue as the original stuff had gummed up.
It Has seen some use, but works well and is nice and clear. There is recoil damage to the built in mount, but this can be easily dressed with some files.
Eye relief is 2"-3". The scope is 6" long and about 1" diameter. It weighs 230g

It was an high ticket priced scope in its day. They were a bit rich for most and specialised when a Moonlighter cost less and had more magnification.
For collectors then condition is everything. Your example is heavily used.
Mint £150 wouldn't be robbing anyone. Yours £40 to £60 if all working correctly, as it might suit a well used and tuned HW35 or early HW80. Plenty of those about requiring a period scope to get the whole experience.

Yep, I believe these were popular on Jackals and Firepowers
