If it needs crosshairs, or lens re-lamination, I can do it....Anything else, I stay away from, as I know my limitations..These 330's & M73B1's look like they are .10 cent scopes, but they have MANY internal paper washers that act as spacers, in conjunction with steel tube/spacers & internal lenses.....Half the time, these paper spacer washers disintegrate at the slightest touch...(Ask me how I know...)...Then you have a problem, and need a donor scope....My advice to you is DON'T TAKE IT APART...(if you remotely don't have to)....I do the work and ship it back immediately, and won't have you wait 6 months like the big guys....email me for additional info & a price quote at:

I also sell crosshair wire...2 different diameters...fine (.0005") and medium (.0015").....$15 per 10 foot length .....

Thanks

I can vouch for Dan. He did my scope and about 4 others here in my area and we have all been very pleased. No attitude and no 9 month wait.
