Unfortunately, in my opinion, the mount, bands and screws are reproduction.

The scope is original.

thank you ! other opinions are always welcome !!

Scope looks legit.

Mount/Bands seems like one of the nicer and more recent re-productions out the Ukraine and then the set has been aged. IMHO

This is interesting see late war .. for ac 359 . Is the same

Late round

Here’s my late 359 acceptance marked mount/rig to compare.

Unfortunately, your photos are truly terrible. But, stick with Brian's assessment. Look elsewhere for an original. there is a scope and mount on gun broker right now for sale that's real. 2300 usd and you might be able to negotiate on that price.

They seem to be selling in the 2k range right now with out any accessories. IE lens covers, sunshades ect.

The other two later mounts pictured are IMHO are original. The difference is in the 'rough' finish. Most reproductions mounts lack this and were milled to a fine finish. There was a Czech run of reproduction mounts that had a finish similar to originals but kindly had the wrong waffen ampt to avoid forgery. The latest Ukraine mount tries to replicate the 'rough' finish and has the 359 waffen ampt but to someone who has seen enough original mounts, it is close but not there. The bolt head that secures the bands on the initial mount in question are also clearly 'off'.

Many mounts have been restored and have replacement bands etc., but I would beware of the initial mount posted and as stated Brian knows his mounts and is a member to be trusted.

Thanks a lot for you help
