8x42 POSP scope on a PSL!

Well, got my new POSP today from Kalinka. Very impressed with that company yet again. The scope is about 2 inches longer than the PSO scope that comes on the PSL. And is a lot bigger overall. Worth what i paid for it, pics to come soon!

I can't wait for the pics and I hope this resolves your scope issues with the PSL.

And with the awesome looking, but totally ineffective angled rubber eyepiece

Its pretty good, but the PSL's stock doesn't help at all. The eyepiece is a POS and i can do better without it. having a little trouble getting used to sighting in this type of scope, but ill get it eventually. The higher magnification is a major plus at the range, 100 yards, no problem! cant wait to see what it can really do. and the flip up lens cover is another plus.

Me rikey!!!

It dwarfs the original 4X scope! I'd never used an eyepiece before shooting my PSL and I didn't like it either. The thing seems to constrict your field of view and after a couple shots I have to readjust it.

shipping was 15.90. but i ordered a flip up cover (which it came with, so now i have 2), the spare bulb pack, and a sunshade(that i can use and doesnt match the scopes finish.

and now they have a 10x POSP, but thats a little much seeing as how much the 8x is.

if you order one, it will be well worth it, i ordered on a thursday, and got it monday. and the bulb pack is really nice, the white is awesome compared to the red.

It is huge, adds a little more weight to the rifle. and its black, so it looks alot better.
