You never know whos got what. 3-12x56 meopta scope with the mcwhorter mv reticule or anything similar. need it for my new 308.price of scopes over here are outrageous and from what i have seen recently going price wise,i am better off buying in the uK Edited November 20, 2019 by Ted Newgent Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Meece 1,957 Posted November 20, 2019 Report Share Posted November 20, 2019 Hmmm. I've just had a trawl online and I can't even find anyone over here offering that model for sale over here. All that comes up are .com sites from America. Something that might come into play is that if you bought one from here or elsewhere is that, are you going to get hit with import duty ? I bought a mec reloader from the state's and I got hit hard with over a hundred pounds import tax and a £9 admin fèe to send a letter to inform me that there was a tax to pay !!! Before it would be sent on to me,,,.. The total barstards. You might be lucky andget a black Friday deal on it over there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Meece 1,957 Posted November 20, 2019 Report Share Posted November 20, 2019 The US has gotten really silly in that hardly anything can be exported. Even down to a trigger guard. Do they not know that scopes ect can be bought from virtually any country on the planet. Still its their sales that they are harming. Good ole mum & dad. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
