The C-90 is a good scope if you can stand the diameter. It has a good image but it is bulky and hard to get behind. It works good for astronomy. I have one love it for what it does especially for the price. Send a PM  if you need more information on that scope.
Folks ain't got a sense of humor no more. They don't laugh they just get sore.

Need to follow the rules. Just hard to determine which set of rules to follow
Now the rules have changed again.

thank you for the  fast replay,
what do you  mean when you say "if you can stand the diameter."?

thank you about the fast replay..

You have seen the C90?? Because I saw that the internet praising him ...

By the way, Josh Exmoor how the quality of Konus 7120?? He gives a good image and sharp distance of a mile and a bit more?
