My father, who was a shooter all his life, passed away not long ago. As I have cleaned up and gone through the boxes of reloading gear, gadgets etc, I have come up with about a dozen of his old Weaver target and hunting scopes that he had put away at one point or another. Most of them are fixed power but there a couple of variables, most are about as old as I am I suppose. I have always pretty much been a Leupold man but have had some steel tube Weavers like these and they performed very satisfactorily.
All of Dad's scopes are all blue steel with 1 inch tubes except for one of them. About half of them are foggy and need to be serviced or tossed. I would like to put them on some of my rifles and would like to be able to use them again.

Where can I send these scopes and be assured that I will get timely repair service so that I can get these scopes back into service within a reasonable time period ? Thanks.
