Rifle Scopes Cant figure this one out

[Outsydlooknin75]

SO I have an older Redfield Wideview fixed 4power scope. And I was thinking about putting it on my AR, but here is the thing that I cant seem to figure out.

I have researched the wideviews themselves and from everything that I have read is they were shipped with a duplex reticle. This one doesnt have a duplex reticle, it looks more like a post and a fine cross hair with the post sticking thru the crosshair. I dont have any info on this scope as it was one that my dad had laying around and I inherited it.

Any way of finding out any more info on it. I know that Redfield is long out of business and there may be problems with the scope I dont know of since I havent ever used it but I was curious if anyone knew any more about it other than its a Wideview fixed 4 power.

Does it have the TV screen, or is it a standard round scope?? I have the same post reticle RedField in a 2X7 power variable. RedField made the scope both ways. The older fixed power RedField's were pretty tough critters. Top of the line in the day. Tom.

Its the TV screen wideview with the square lenses.

I just hadnt seen anything about the post and cross hair reticle ... all the research I had done on the wideviews were all duplex reticles.
