Kollmorgen Cub II scope
I am looking at purchasing this scope, but know nothing about it. Is it a centerfire rifle scope, 22, what?? Not in pristine condition, but usable, what is the ballpark value? Thanks. Emery

Kollmorgan built 4 scopes betweem 1956 and 1959 under their own name, before being purchased by Weaver. O would need more information (magnification would work) to tell you more, but the value range for the least to most valuable is $60-$185.

Kollmorgan also produced the Stith scopes. Top of the line optics in their day.

The Kollmorgan Cubs were generally 2.75 power and were known for their durability above all. They supposedly were favored by Alaskan guides in their day because of their low magnification and quick acquisition; couple this with the durability factor and you can understand why they likely gained favor with those guys who needed a strong scope that would be used over short ranges. they seem to be going for about $125 these days in excellent shape on E-bay and here.

mazo kid, Kollmorgen scopes had 26mm tubes. 26mm rings are available but will probably cost more than 1" rings. 0
