Used Kowa Spotting scope Yes/No

[Sray53TXTN]

I was just about to pull the trigger on a replacement spotting scope (Vortex Nomad angled $339), my straight Bushnell $40 scope suddenly went blurry and started to rattle, figured it was time to step up.
Suddenly I saw an ad from local shooter selling a Kowa TSN-821M2, 27x eye piece, with Freeland heavy duty tri-pod stand/swivel head, and Cordura cover.
It has some brass dings cause he was a southpaw highpower shooter, not too bad though.
Glass is perfect.



Worth $495?

YES!!!!!!! That is a screamer deal.
Good luck,

+1.

At that price you could still have Kowa look it over should you find your new item has an issue that affects performance.

Purchased it and it is SO much better than what I was previously using. Glass was a little dusty and it had not thoroughly cleaned in a while, however, all glass and functions seem great. Will have it at the range this coming weekend when I'm chronoing some loads at 200 yards.
(284)7mm holes should be easy to see.
Looks I got a good deal on this one - guess it must have been my turn. ;D

rinoray-

You got an awesome deal at the price. I love my Kowa as I use it for HP XTC and F-class matches. Its
worked in hot weather, and cold & damp conditions

You can get different eyepiece lenses if you want to go up in magnification.

Enjoy it.

You got a heck of a deal. I paid hundreds more. Best sighting scope I have ever owned.
