its a scope and not a "Dienstglas"

I believe it is a fake marking. I also think that the lack of coating from the machined area is obvious.

thats not the question.

SS Dienstglas sniper scopes are marked like the one i asked for.

but the bones and the head is a bit different for me. the picture shows an original one and not the one from no.1

here the one i asked for, you see the different??

From my understanding of these....take it for what it is worth...

1. The actual scope types or different in that the one posted has a longer sun shade or objective? lense fitting
2. The serial number range is a good deal off.....real ones as I know them are in the last 30,000 and maybe very low 40,000 range
3. The sides where the markings are look to have been planed down and re-marked (both sides)
4. The SS marking and the serial number look to me to have been re-applied...different from originals
5. back to number 1 above, I think that the scope is actually a renumbered and re-marked post war 1950s or 60s period...the focus seems too me to be of that style.

dienstglas stands for service glass, which this is.
