I picked up this Tasco Euro-Class 3-9x44 scope with a rifle I bought, and I don’t have a use for it. It’s a well-made Japanese scope from Asia Optical, likely from 1997? It’s in very good condition with clear optics and smooth adjustments. Looking for help to value it and open to offers. Let me know if you’re interested or have any insight.

Thanks guys!

Is it actually marked "Made in Japan" (or with a "3" inside an oval)? These are actually pretty well made scopes with quality Japanese glass from Hakko/Asia Optical. I would be as happy with it as a Vortex. Later production shifted to Taiwan and they do not have nearly as good a reputation. If Japanese and in nearly new shape, they will go for as much as $250 - maybe a tad more at a gunshow. You will see them offered online for as much as $350 or so, but I wonder how many of those actually sell. If Taiwanese, good luck.

Be careful of this Wolfen guy. 2 messages. Both trying to sell something. He PM'ed me trying to sell something and he PM'ed my friend on here trying to sell something. Fishy.

Hi Dr. Ray, I will be in Cooktown from Oct 16 to Oct 23 fishing Lizard Island Black Marlin Tournament.

I have several "slack" days after fishing before I head for stay in Sydney and Fiji.

Do you have any recommendations for 1 or 2 day hunt near Cooktown?

I've hunted both DG and PG in 4 different countries in Africa.
Thank you,
Bob

Good morning. I see that you had a Sauer 202 for sale for $3,000. Did you sell it at that price?
I have one for sale as well. I listed it (on here ) at $3,000 as well. Is the price high, low or right where it should be?

Thanks. Alex. [redacted] in case you want to call me to discuss further. I appreciate your time help and support.
