    I picked up this scope awhile back but I've been having some difficulty finding out exactly what I've got on my hands and the value do i was hoping someone who is an expert with Russian style optics can educate me on what exactly I managed to get here. Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Well I can't figure out how to post a pic on here so if someone wants to educate me or if there's any experts out there willing to help feel free to pm me. Otherwise this can be closed since it seems I can't figure out how to get those pics up

    Close, but not for a Mosin. Russian LOMO (Leningrad Optical Mechanical Plant) scope for an AK.

    The guy I picked it up from said it was a PU scope for an AK with 3.5x mag. I've tried to do research on it to see what I could find out about it but haven't found much on this in particular. The gentleman informed me it was a Belomo scope so perhaps that's why my searches came up empty.

    Helotes!

    They are very similar in appearance and the reticle is the same. In fact, this may simply be a modern "hunting" version of the old PU scope...

    Here are some pics from a guy on the AK Files who got one a few years back...

    Looks very similar with the markings in those pictures. Any idea why mine doesn't show where it was manufactured?

    Just FYI,

    The upside down U in front of the "O" is basically the Russian version of P.
    The O is pretty much just O.
    That designation stands for "hunting aiming device"

    These apparently are mounted on mosins over in Russia.
