While you guys are getting all misty about Nostalgic ARs with the handles I have what makes them look and shoot better. I have an original 3x20 Colt Scope that is in excellent condition, I was going to list in the For sale section but I wanted to offer it here first pm or email me, I see them on the broker for $400 I'll be willing to let it go ftf for $350 anyone interested?

I have one of the 3x20 Colt handle mount scopes. Got it here actually.

They pop up on ebay alot too.

It does look cool, and BDC feature does work pretty good if you are using mil spec ammo. The problem I had was, it mounts so high that I can't get any kind of cheek weld, it does mount so you can still use the iron sights if you want.

JohnFH,
that is where the mil spec cheek riser comes into play 8)

We didn't have a riser on the A1 :wink:

And then you can't see the irons, which I would rather have on that platform, but that's me

I like irons. Virtually goof-proof.

But, I'm talking about REAL battle rifles... you know, bolt action, clip fed & in real rifle calibers. :wink:
