Silver scopes

When did the better scope manufacturers (think Leupold or Zeiss) quit making a silver finish option? I built a stainless competition 10/22 and was looking for a nice scope for it to match. (Around 14x). And I really can’t find a higher end scope in silver finish. I have a few stainless rifles that have silver scopes that match and they look good. (Obviously my opinion). This is not a hunting rifle so I don’t care about reflection or lack there of. Just aesthetics.

Weaver still offers silver colored scopes, I have 2 36x target scopes, and they offer a 24x. Not sure about 14x like you are looking for.
