What is it?

Not quite sure where to post this but I'll try it here. Anyone have any any idea what is the name of this scope. This is the only brand marking on the scope. Customer claims it is a SWFA scope but I'm having serious doubts.
Thanks for your input

Pictures. Hope it helps

looks exactly like the scope a guy tried to peddle on me as a MK4 leupold he got brand new for $150. had the exact serial number as a bunch of others around the net.

Good catch! You’re right it’s definitely a leupold mk4. You’ve should have taken it! Would have been the deal of the century! :D:D
 
The logo on the focus turrent looks to be a rifle crosshair with a lightning bolt behind it. It appears to me that there isn't a lot of pride in this scope as they have avoided putting their name on it. Doesn't even say where it was made. I tried sighting in his rifle with this scope and had a fairly miserable time of it.

I would save myself some time and trouble if I were you and tell your customer you don't want to deal that quality of scope. Now that I look at it closer,it doesn't say Osprey. Esp.with the different logo. Bet it was made by our great trade partners in the Far East. You already did more than I would have. LOL
 
Probably comes from the same factory as Barska. Ok, I found another nameless scope that look like it on eBay. The knobs look the same, but marking slightly different. It sells for $81 new with mounts.

If you put it on a rifle that you smithed and the owner can't shoot .5MOA with it all day long (if he does his part) it will come back to you as a "gun problem".

Save yourself the grief, follow Nancy R's advice, just say no.
