So after a long search I landed brand new a kasnar sniper 3-9x40 ao scope.made in Japan in the 80's, I had always heard they were good scopes, and after mounting it, all I can say is WOW! This scope is every bit as clear as my leupold! It focuses down to 5 yards or so, has a nifty mil dot like reticle with lines instead of dots, and the build quality seems very nice! Again I am just blown away with the clarity of the lenses. If anyone had a chance to pick one up ever....DO IT!!
