Orion F6 100mm shorty achro

This is a terrific grab-n-go scope which I have pimped up by replacing the focuser with a JMI. It comes with a 6 x 30 Tak finder and a craftsman-built carry-case that is a work of art. It is an achromat not an APO - but is a beauty all the same. It would do very well with widefield narrow-band imaging.

I've used it a a guidescope on a big rig but have switched to OAG lately and can't see myself giving this scope any work to do. So out it goes.

I'll put in a 2"-1 1/4" adapter. It comes with a Vixen bar and finder-type rings.

Price for the lot is A$600 plus freight/post/insurance.

Pics added.
