Just had a friend show me an old Redfield spotting scope. It was a 15-45 power and looked to have about a 55mm objective. It came a stand that has two legs that fold out and act like a tripod. The scope and stand came in a hard case and everything(scope, stand and case) was red. The condition was very good to excellent.

Any one remember these? How was the quality? Any idea of the value?


Thanks in advance,
Dana

Thanks wapaloose. I held the scope up to my eye and it looked pretty clear, but didn't spend any time with it. It may be mine next payday...

I remember them pretty well, the older Redfield stuff was good, if it's a US made scope and the price isn't too high I would not hesitate to buy it if I needed it. The last one I saw on fleaBay went for around $150.00 IIRC.
