Scrome, the original maker of the J8 scope used by the French Army on the FR-F2 sniper rifle, is making a commercial run of J8 scopes for collectors who have the recently-released surplus FR-F2 rifles. They are made in France in the same shop, by the same people and to the same specifications as the Army scopes – including the correct range finding reticle. They don’t know how many to make, so they are asking for a preorder list. If you are interested in getting one, email them at Lte@scrome.fr to get on the list.
Production is expected to take place this fall, and they will ship directly from Scrome. You can see all the detail in Scrome’s post:

At Forgotten Weapons I think the most interesting guns out there are the most obscure ones. I try to search out experimental and prototype weapons and show you how they work, in addition to more conventional guns that you may not have heard of before. You’re much more likely to find a video on the Cei Rigotti or Webley-Fosbery here than an AR or Glock. So, do you want to learn about something new today? Then stick around!
