So, here I am at TSE this afternoon fondeling their demo R22 and hoping the waiting list is shorter than I know it is, and I got to wondering: What scope will I put on it? What are the rest of you guys putting on yours when you get them? What scope is possibly ###y enough to go on this $600 .22 rimfire godess of gopher doom?
 
hmm... don't know about optics, but I'm definately puttin Armedsasks' "tac light" on it. :|

Looks nice! Thanks for the link.:D But the price seems unusually low for a scope that has the features and quality that they claim on their website. Do you have any experience with Mueller scopes?

I found this pic on Rhineland's site. The gopher wouldn't know what hit 'em.... Too bad I'll never be able to buy one in Canada. :cry:

But anyway.... had no one thought about scopes for their R22s yet?

I have borrowed a few rifles at the local range that have them, and talked to quite a few owners of these scopes who say good things about them. Buying one for myself is on my Firearmgoodies wish list.

Mind you I'm really holding out for a 'mil dot scope' for the shooting sports I'm into:

Keep in mind the prices on the page are USA prices. Compare with other USA scope companies an you will notice what I mean.

Hey methinks Armedsask needs to add one of these to his little rifle in the pic:

Then he could do away with the bulky light. :wink:
Isn't that wicked sick? :mrgreen: hehehe. :lol:

Buy what... the silencer? It's a fake, notice the large exit hole. Lots to be had here in Canada. I got MFI to import a few about a year back, they were pricey, but looked sweeeeeeet.

... I never even noticed the oversized bore on that can. Thanks for pointing that out. I guess I need to look closer at pics before i post them. :?

You're right, they do look cool even if they don't do anything. Nothing I'd be willing to pay good money for though.
 
Looking at the Mueller Scopes selling on E-bay, they look to me like rebadged Tasco's.

Not 100% sure but if you look at some of them side by side they look pretty similar.
 
Wasn't there a link or another post somewhere that said standard rings would not work? I too was looking at the Marstar 3-9x40, and it currently comes with rings. Would they fit or would we have to get a riser as well? What about the basic Reddots or the holosights that Marstar have on their website? Would they fit? I haven't heard much good about the Marstar Holo sight...any comments?
