PST gen2. Better reticle and 5X magnification. I’ve looked thru both and the Nikon is nice but I prefer the vortex. The Nikon is rediculously huge too.
They made a limited run of them in black, look hard maybe you can find one used.

I’ll keep an eye out for it. An old favorite of mine too. Saw it in the theater as a kid and probably a million times since. Never heard of this scene you mention.
