I have a scope that I got 40 years ago +or - a year or 2. I got it at western auto, it's a armsport 3-9 with tv screen , I paid 89.95 back then, this scope been on a lots of guns over the years and hold zero great and is super clean. I would love to no who made it for western auto. Can anyone help , it was made in japan

My guess it is an old Tasco that was made in Japan. got any photos

Didn't redfield also make a Tv reticle?

I have a Redfield Illuminator, circa 1983, that has the TV reticle. I like it other than the fussy eye relief.

Back then it was a high dollar scope$ 89.95 for a 3-9 power I do not then it a tasco anyone no any way to look up who made it love to no , thanks guys

I think the scopes were called Realist from some research I have done. Several of them are the plum brown color.They were imported from '65-'74, my 1974 Shooters Bible has Leupold 3x9 scope was $104 Realist 3x9 scope was $103, not just another cheap Japanese scope.

Another brand they had was Revelation.Hope this helps.

Mine is blue, did redfield, Burris , or what co. Made it ??? Help please . Has western auto gone out of busnice in all 50 states

photo would help

They ain't what they used to be.

Doesn't numerich(sp) have a section of their catalog that cross references store brand guns and scopes with their respective major gun manufacturer? I have an old Sears Ted williams pump 20 gauge, first gun I ever bought. Bought it from my cousin for 30.00. It was brand new and Sears carried them. I replaced a part on it a few years ago and used my numerich catalog( which I lent out 2 years ago and have not seen it since) to figure out Winchester made the gun and Winchester still made the part. CHeck Nuemrich out. I think you can google it and I believe they have an onlibe catalog.

Darrel, I just googled armsport scopes and this is one thing I found. Someone selling their scope. Heres the add.

This rare scope was made in Japan and was purchased used over 38 years ago. The scope has been stored inside the house in a old scope box. I will ship this item within the U.S. for only 13.99! I have rings and mounts available for an additional 35.00 if anyone is interested. The scope is in great condition. Note: I have the original paperwork and this item was sold in 1993 for an U.S. $ 200.61!! WHAT IS IT WORTH TODAY?
