Older redfield scope question
Have an older Redfield scope. It appears to have a small spot of dust/grime on the inside of eyepiece lense. Dot is about size of a small BB, but you can see it when looking through the scope. One of those things you could live with, but it would be nice to remove. Can I take the eyepiece off by loosening the locking ring and unthreading the eyepiece to expose the back of the lense for a light cleaning without causing any future fogging issues? I am wondering if the older USA Redfield scopes are nitrogen filled and if so do they have a seal between the scope body and eyepiece? Thanks for any information!

I just bought a Denver manufacture USA Redield 6 X It appears clear looking through it. When I turn it toward me and look into the objective lens I see like a bit of cloudiness on the inside of the lens. Will this be a problem as it appears clear otherwise ? Thanks for any advice. 0 -
Common type of reticule used in Europe, not particularly popular on this side of the pond. Although years ago I use to see then sold as fixed 6 power, "German hunting scopes", or some such name? 0 -
Redfield called them "PCH", or post and cross hair. I just bought one LNIB, and it should be here this week. BT 0 -
I also have several by Leupold and Redfield. Almost all manufacturers made them in one form or another. It was a very popular scope in low light situations or against brush or in trees and the post is quick to find. They were made in most all powers.
