Provenance: The Lyman Alaskan is rated as one of the finest scopes ever made in America. It was manufactured from 1939 to 1957 and hit the market just as telescopic sights became popular for the everyday shooter. Its superior durability earned its way onto the U.S. Army's sniper rifles in WWII and Korea, designated the M81 and M82. Military issue examples are denoted by a 'B' prefix to the serial number. Today, the Alaskan is still used and relied on by many hunters and sportsmen
