Scope belonged to my father who passed away and I have no idea what the value of it is.  It looks to be in great to excellent condition.

Anybody have an idea on it?

NICE scope!!!

New, don't quote me but, I'm thinking it was in the $700-1000 New!


Search on the web and try gunbroker and other auction sites.  probably somewhere $350 to 500 depending on condition...  But I'd check that carefully before selling...


There are a few Kahles devotees here.  One or more should validate or correct me....

It appears you have an older steel tubed kahles...  That being said my pricing might be on the high side.... but ya never know.  Kahles have always been GOOD scopes.  But Kahles has always had distributor/Customer Service issues until fairly recently when they stopped outsourcing service.

Thanks guys, I didin't wanna try to sell it on here cause I thought that'd be poor etiquette.  Just hoping you guys could help me determine what it might be worth.

Folks ain't got a sense of humor no more. They don't laugh they just get sore.

Need to follow the rules. Just hard to determine which set of rules to follow
Now the rules have changed again.

Don't sell it. It's a classic.
