The far left row are the Accu-Ranges. Gen 1’s and 2’s. Even a few 4-12X and a 2-7. Far right are the Weaver T’s. I got sucked in and became obsessed with owning all the variations. I bought whole rifles just to get the scope sometimes.
Im sorting out builds now and will keep a spare example of the prime units. M40, A1 Transitional, and the mythical T10 variant. I’ll also put a few on some 40X repeaters I’ve accumulated. The rest will get sold off to recoup money and fund builds.

This isn’t a flex. More of an embarrassed warning. If you do your research first and stick to a plan, you’ll get there a lot cheaper than buying willy-nilly. Patience will get you there. There’s enough money here to buy a CMP Unertl, but instead I pissed it away $150-$400 at a whack. There was the thrill of the hunt, though. And the rush of catching a gem under the radar. Every collector has a different perspective, I guess.
