    Quality scope work, can be expensive. Check the fair market value of your scope. To see what they actually are selling for on fleabay.

    If the quote you get for fixing/cleaning? it. Is out of line, reconsider.

    if it does not have any historic value to you, just buy another one. i see then in good condition from 40.00-60.00 at gun shows. i bought a older K-8 with plain crosshair in very good condition for 60.00 for a older rem 722 in .222. mr myopic.

    I have 3 K4s that I use on a regular basis, when they fail I'll replace them with Vortex

    Just saying, it will cost you more than it's worth. I concur with above.

    Dan submitted the following: ?I stick to replacing crosshair wires on ONLY Unertl & Lyman & * external adjustment scopes and the Weaver 330 and M73B1 sniper scopes as well. No cleaning or other repairs. Turnaround time is immediate, as I usually get the scopes fixed and back in the next day?s mail. No 6 or 8 month wait...Price for crosshair wire replacement is $85 and I?ll pay return shipping. For Do It Yourselfer?s, I also sell the best crosshair wire money can buy for about 20 years now. Its annealed Tungsten, is very strong & shows up Jet Black when installed. I have two diameters to choose from. Medium (.0015?) and Fine (.0005?). Price is $15 per 10 foot length of either wire. I'll pay return shipping to anywhere in the lower 48. USA sales ONLY, please. US Postal Money Orders ONLY, please.
    Please communicate by email.?

    Please read the Posting Guidelines found in the link under the GB logo on every page. Offers to buy or sell are not allowed on the forums.

    BT99,

    The idea of selling the scope for parts is a good one and worth considering. It is not allowed here on the forums but it can be arranged through the Auction side.

    Best.
