I went to an auction last Sat. I bought a super nice, like custom, Mauser to gift a relative for 170 bucks. It is a 30 06.
Bought me a Rem 700 Matt black in 22 250 with a new 250 dollar scope on it.
They pulled a Redfield 3x9 Wide field out of a box, I had not looked at it. Got it for 12.50. The parallel will not adjust. Stays perfectly clear at 3 to 5 feet. Will not clear up at distance. The power ring is on 3 and will not move.
I called Iron sight and the base repair, new O rings, cleaning and gas charge is 95 bucks. We'll worth fixing.
I recently bought a new Redfield revenge, it is a good mid cost scope. This Wide field is only the 2nd Redfield I've ever owned.
It has a tall top turret but no cover, there are 3 indendions for one to snap on.
Is any one a Redfield collector or have older catalogs?
I could not find any info on line except the wideview, TV, scope came out in 1970 or 71.
Any one have an extra top turret cover or know who has old scope parts?
We've been busy for the last year, building fence and buying cattle. We finally are getting our house built,v they are setting up the basement forms right now.
We have to make a 5 acre lot to wean calves and hold some just weaned Gelphfie heifers.
When the house is done we will get internet. Doing it on a cell phone screen is a pain. Have not forgotten and miss you folks, look forward to more time after we get internet.
