Hi all,
Yes Raimey the turret is as in your pictures, only the Skoparette has an enlarged objective body. Kuduae, took your advice, turned the dial 1/4 turn right and much to my surprise it came the full 7.5 in. to the point of aim!
Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

I was trying to see if I had a Skiparette but I found a Skopare/Skopar F, which didn't have any notches atop but I have a Skopar somewhere with notches and a single mount Oigee with 2 marks that make a V. I have a Ajack that has numbers atop of it but I'm not sure if the marks are original or not.

Kind Regards,

Raimey

Who would you gentlemen recommend for the restoration of one of these fine scopes?

A more accurate translation would be "A longitudinal cutaway view of an optical telescopic sight" and "The path taken by the rays of light in an optical telescopic sight".
Danke!!

1908 Skopare Advert


Typical reticle variations image from circa 1907.

I guess I've seen more early scopes with example #4 than the rest. Nr. 2 is a variation that is given as a choice for dynamic targets.


Most interesting is the evolution of adaptation of a magnification device on a sporting weapon. Entrance, exit pupils, inverted images, etc. all come into play as well as eye relief which fell in the 4 - 8cm range with the 6 - 8cm subset being the optimal. In rummaging thru some scopes, the Boys Ellenburg took keen interest and it was difficult to get the youngest of 5 years to understand the full field of view concept thru eye relief. He wants to reverse the optics, so he may be a potential long distance shooter. But now they want to attach magnification to all longarms.

Kind Regards,

Raimey

Need a magnifier to be sure, auld deutsch script style, but looks like it means-- Long sections of lenses contained in one cover (tube?)--


No. It's "longitudinal cross-section of a refracting rifle scope."

Dave - a very minor point but there is no such thing as a "longitudinal cross section"

A cross section is a section taken at right angles to the long axis.

A section taken thru the long axis is a "longitudinal" section or in German, "Längsschnitt"

You're correct.

I take it that you figured out that the set screw is to hold the setting of the elevation... supposed to loosen it before turning, and then reset it. Good luck with it. I had a Voightlander fixed power with single post reticle in claw mounts once. It functioned OK, but the tube was the metric equivalent of 7/8 inch, so was not as bright as I desired at the time. Deutsch Optik at one time did refurbishing on older german scopes. Steve
