	6x condor with external adjustment. all unertl without numbers were hunting scopes. also tube scopes had no serial number. vulture scopes also hunting scopes 8x and 10x 8 had internal adjustments calibrated head. 10 had external adjustments and calibrated head. your scope should have an overall length around 13 1/2" thanks tom

	I didn't know the Condor's were available with external mounts. Why is it not marked "Condor"? The "Vulture" came both ways, internal and external.

	My Remington marked scope was a 20x. It had a little over an inch eye relief.

	Pulled out Stroebels book. Good general reference not absolute. Covered so much no way he could throughly research everything. Falcon 2.75x Hawk 4x Condor 6x Vulture 8x & 10x detailed with no mention in the specs internal or external . He has one paragraph that says “the Vulture Varmit/Target scope could be had with or without internal adjustments. No mention of the others. If we step back from specifics and reflect Unertl was a small company and likely able to do anything with parts on hand. Not difficult to build a External adjustment Vulture in 6x, does that make it a Condor with external adjustment or a Vulture with reduced power. No matter it is what it is and probably a special order like the EBay seller says. Opinion that’s changeable if hard facts come to light Boats

In both 60s & 80s catalogs, that's the only model listed as AC/DC. Minor adjustment to reduce the power to 6X--doubt that a customer who requested it would have been asked to pay more than a trivial service charge, or none at all.
