Old Binocs.

My father gave me his old binocs some time back, my mother said that the mag is about 4x. They are old and wonkey but sure do the job ok for what the are. Any one else have the same as these or know anything about them.??

Wow nice binocs guys! All I have are Japanese leather covered ones that don't go back that far or have that much of history to them..

Maybe i should stick them on ebay if they sell that money could go towards a new scope.
Paul: I like those brass ones, do you use them at all?

I have used them a couple of times. I'm amazed they managed to see anything out of them. I guess we're spoilt with todays tascos
