Old German Scope on Craigslist

Just doing some poking on Craigslist to see what detritus might be lurking about. And came across this.


No idea what it is, period or if it is worth a fraction of this.

But if someone knows what it is, maybe they need it?

Cheers,

Explain to me why the government does not prohibit publishing an announcement about the purchase and sale of weapons and accessories for him on the craiglist.

I generally oppose the open use of weapons.

First part, because it is legal to advertise firearms online and sell them with in the definitions of Federal, State and local laws. Craigslist says you can sell a small portion of accessories. No firearms, firearm parts, ammo, reloading components, or magazines. Scopes, slings, cases, and some other accessories seem to be okay.

Second part, you may be on the wrong forum, but I enjoy good conversation.
 
"I generally oppose the open use of weapons." ??? Gunsnjeeps is probably correct about the wrong forum. I don't think that opinion is widely shared here.
 
I think one of us scared joannecameron away.
I don't think "She" was going to stick around anyway. She no longer has a membership here on the Hide apparently. FWIW, I can understand people who don't like guns and prefer to stick their heads in the sand as to how to protect themselves. It's when they pull their heads out of the sand long enough to pass laws that limit me, and many like me, from protecting myself that I get annoyed.

In any case, the original ad is gone. Shame, that is a piece of history.
