TACFUN 3-9x42 Long Eye Relief Scope w/Ring for Mosin Nagant M44 M91/30 M38 1891/30 Mauser 98 K-98 K98

Great L.E.R. for the Mosin Nagant. Came with low rings that keep it close to the barrel top. This makes it easier to sight due to the downdraft angle of the rifle butt on my rifle. Medium rings were also included.

Over all I am satisfied; however, it took me a box of ammunition to figure out that the windage was actually the elevation and vis-versa. The nobs are interchangeable. At the factory they were put on backwards. Once I figured it out, I quickly adjusted. 2.5 boxes of ammunition later I was hitting 8” gongs consistently at 120 yards. The 9x zoom it nice. Quality seems good. I can hit a deer with it at 120 yards a few times a year. That is all I needed.

This scope was great until the turrets stripped the second time I used it. Now they don't lock down so the scope stays zeroed.

I custom built an 1893 Spanish Mauser. The 8mm round is no joke. The recoil has broke my bipod, chipped my stock and loosened my scope mount. The scope itself remains undamaged. Not a great field of view, but it's a long eye relief. And if you have a rifle like mine, you DO NOT want your eye anywhere near the scope ;) Not a super tight group yet, but not the scope's fault. The recoil jammed the sear, and my trigger pressure went from 6 pounds to 20 :( It is good knowing that with all the teething problems on this project, the scope hasn't been one of them. So yes, it can handle what your Mosin will dish out.

As noted by another reviewer, at the lowest setting - which is supposed to be 3x magnification - objects appear smaller than in real life. Setting 4 approximates 1x, leaving 5-9 for magnification. That said, I'm keeping it. The long eye relief is sublime and a 1-6x42 scope is actually better suited to my particular application; plinking with an air rifle @ 25yrds or less. Forewarned is forearmed. Do not be surprised if you don't get what you bargained for.

Mounted on my .308 bolt rifle and with the exceptional eye relief was able to mount in front of the bolt so I didn't need tall mounts. The glass is very clear and I was able to obtain my target instantly. Love this thing. Had it zero in with only 4 rounds and shot a 1 inch group at 100 yards.

Advertised as 3-9x. At the 3x setting, this scope offers no magnification (1x). Scope FOV is larger than TACFUN 2-7X32.

noticed another reviewer was having trouble with this a few days ago as I did when I recieved this item so I figured I'd see if I could help. the set screws just need to be loosend then the nobs pulled out. then adjusted as necessary. hope this helps. this scope worked great for me. best of luck.
