I have a 2 power plastic scope - the adjustments take some getting used to as the sight's image is incapable of being moved, resulting is the crosshairs sitting anywhere but centrally. I guess it is easy to say open sights are more practical but these British made scopes were the first to have been specifically made for air rifles and would have been a unique option in 1959.

I have also tried the plastic Mk 11 on a Merlin and that has the clarity of a fogged up milk bottle! In fairness the 'scope I tried is well used and I also have a boxed one to experiment with 'properly'.

So far, my best results have been with an externally adjustable Milbro/Diana scope on a contemporary Milbro.

Kind regards,
