Very much of their time.
I had one mounted on my HW35 in the very early 80's....it didn't stay on the long though.
I replaced it with the ''Original'' 4 x 40 jap scope (I believe it was a generic Jap scope badged to suit many suppliers) that I originally fitted in 1978.

BTW - I've still got that scope - crystal clear...
