I saved Unertl’s only post on the matter and the rest of the posts were nonesense. I have long forgot where I got it from but a clever googler I’m sure could turn it up. I saved his comments as they were a peak into the history of a legendary firearms industry company. As usual with most gun forums, few of the poster new much about much and were posting all kinds of BS about Unertl and US Optics ( which did some shady stuff after Unertl went into limbo and got sued for their troubles irrespective of what you may hear otherwise) until most unexpectedly John R Unertl himself popped up to set the record straight.
Last night I got thinking about Unertl again after a friend asked me something about those old beauties and remembered some years ago there was a forum discussion some where or other about what happened.
As you may have noticed my love o vintage target/varmint weapons and optics have been on my brain recently.
