Ooops, missed that he already had a read gun. The fixed Zeiss 6*42 scope are great, but I would take a look at the Swarovski z3 3-9*36, small, light weight, 1" tube and great optics. And I saw it for sale on a US website for 450-500 dollars. That`s half the price of what we have to pay up here. Zeiss also has a 3-9*36 but I think it has went out of production, so then you will have to find a used one.
