Hello everyone! I’m trying to identify a sight my father gave me. Dad served overseas during WWII, which is where I think he got it. He doesn’t remember anything about the scope (what it went to, where he found it, etc.), but says he believes it came from a German WWII field weapon.

I can’t find any markings of any kind (raised letters, painted, printed, written, embossed) on the scope, and I have made no attempts to take it apart or clean it in any way. Here are some photos, including one through the eye cup.

A friend pointed out that my scope’s reticle resembles the MG42 Z40 reticle (below):

Any ideas?

Let me know if any additional (or larger) photos are needed or wanted for the identification.

Thank you for reading and for any help. Also, apologies if I’ve posted this in the wrong place.
