I always thought I would never sell this perfect little telescope, but I have since acquired its bigger brother & so I cannot justify keeping them both. It is one of the early FC-series Tak fluorite refractors & is in perfect condition. These are hard to find on the used market, and for good reason.
It comes with: OTA, dust cover, 1.25" visual back & clamshell. It also comes with a custom adapter so it can take 2" eyepieces, together with a shortened diagonal as required by the adapter. The inability to take 2" eyepieces was the only limitation of the original design.

I am looking for around $1K for scope, adapter & diagonal.
