I agree with the converted 50 Cal scopes being the least desirable, but if you zero at 300 yards the 30 and 50 cal scopes are pretty similar from 100-500 yards. Most serial numbers I’ve seen that have a consecutive numbering also start at 01, so I think there’s a good chance this is #1. Things are sometimes done for other reasons though. I’ve read that the 30 scopes started at 1001, and it makes sense to start at xx01 so you could have an accurate count. 50Cal scopes would be the most scarce of all USMC Unertls. While the least desirable in my mind, the converted. 50Cal were done by USO at the request of the Marine Corps. ![]() ![]() It's never been rebuilt/modified, so US Optics (then or now) wouldn't know anything about it. I've read differing things about whether they started at 5000 or 5001. 50Cal scope would probably be the first one.
