I was wondering if anyone has a recommendation for a suitably priced scope that's set up similarly to a PMII. This would be for an Airforce Condor for backyard use...maybe a "trainer" for the kids before they try the real deal.

You know what axe since i reread the post i see where you are coming from...some how i got clone for a pm2 out of his post...
To the op sorry my old eyes misread your post....
As far as what you are asking i really havent seen anything...Unfourtuetly there is one that looks kinda like what you are looking for but it is a brand we do not say,that is pretty much total trash.....
Most of you know the brand (we do not say)i am talking about...

Besides the PM2 and March scopes, there is only one FFP scope that I know of which focuses down to 10Y. That would be the Bushnell 3-12x44 tactical. You can buy them used for around $600. Edit. The Falcon Menace 5-25 might be worth considering but it only focuses to 12-13 yards.
The others can laugh all they want but I attribute training with precision air rifles in my back yard as one of the reasons why I won the AZPRC championship and 4 state Field Target titles!
Steve im with you. These high end air rifles are great for backyard pests and are tack drivers at the the typical backyard distances.
I guess we are looking for moderately priced glass that has the same general knob layout and perhaps a similar reticle as a PMII, so that for the kids there could be some degree of familiarity going back and forth between the two. Will check out the bushnell and falcon
Well, if you can't find a clone, you could always go with the real deal. If the kids don't like it, S&Bs hold their resale value pretty well. Kind of an expensive experiment though.
