Silver scope in black rifle?

Looks a touch funny. Not that it won't work fine.
All those whom say it doesn't matter? Well lets throw a tri-rail on the old 30-30 in a '94...get us a red dot, flashlight and a lazer going too.
We all have a line that we balk at...everyone's is different is all.

Do what ever you want, who cares what others think.

I have a Leopold 15-24 X 50mm silver scope on a black Mossberg 270. Looks awesome to me.

15-24x50 on a .270?!?! How long does it take you to find the target?

I don't like silver scopes, I put black scopes on my blued and stainless rifles.

15-24x50 for when your standing in region 3 but the deer are in region 5

Thats what the see-thru rings are for

I like the carpet to match the drapes on mine, nothing nicer than a blued or matte black optic on a blued or black action.

Dislike those things. Feel like a Tom turkey with my head all craned up tryna see through them.
Got a K98 with a Mauser ( repro) SSR...it is bad enough.
And I've run matte scopes on blued rifles. Ruger No.1 comes to mind. Got to do what you have to.
But the 2 tone look...seems very 70's kitsch...like a nice leisure suit.
Not my thing.
Those that say it doesn't matter... I don't believe you. You just haven't found the 'Line' yet. A hot pink Bubba'd Lee Enfield with a Red dot ought to end that streak, LoL
And nope...don't have one. Mostly color blind here anyhow.

It looks dorky, but if it's what you have and it works, do it.

When I see a rig such as this, my first thought is, "LOL, your wife won't let you buy a scope."
