Elcan C79 Optics

[Halong]

Looking for a new Elcan C79 scope, does any one know if it is still in production and where I can find one ?

I found a brand new Elcan C79 scope with the updated mount for $500, is it a good deal?

Yep that's a good deal.

Thanks!

Check the mount.
Look for a spring between the two halves of the mount.
The old style mounts are **** and won't hold zero.
If you would like more information on the mount, search for my first post on this site.

Im guessing updated would mean newest mount.

Yes the mount has a spring attached, much better than the one I was using in the CF.
