The customer sent this scope in for servicing, a reticle change (from the original fine crosswires to a German post) and refinishing of the pitted objective and ocular tubes.
The scope as it arrived. The focus ring was also binding, which is unsurprising, since the screw that fastens the focus ring to its cam lug was obviously tampered with (this not a "lock" screw, there is no need to loosen it to turn the ring).
The extent of the pitting is evident upon initial polishing.
Disassembled, cleaned, reticle changed and tubes ready for bluing...
Reassembled, lubed and ready to mount...
