Hi All,
Am doing a research project on German Optical Equipment, and can't seem to find an answer to what must be a patently simple question!
Here goes: On certain optics such as.......
RichtKries 31
RK12
Rudblickfernrohr
and various other "tripodded" (or "on carriage") opticals what does the red paint denote? does it means it is magnetic or something?
Take a look at the message that has been posted recently to see what I mean.

I am currently reseaching only certain types of optics and so far I have consulted both Dr. Seegers "Grey" and "Blue" books as well as Dr. Rohans "Red" book. If anyone knows of any other good resources for optical equipment I'd be grateful to hear.
Although I am not concentrating on hand held binoculars or sniper scopes.
Everyting else if fair game though (Entfernungsmessers, 10 x 80's, 12 x 60's, RK's, Rudblinkfernrohrs, Fu30's, Panzer Beobachtungs scopes, MG Scopes, sextants and theodolights)
be grateful for any assistance.
best regards
