Advertisement Posted May 10, 2010 Posted May 10, 2010 Hi msk2193, Take a look here M9 with long lenses. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
jaapv Posted May 11, 2010 Share #2 Posted May 11, 2010 You're a rich man. The RIFLE stock is one of the rarest and most sought after accessories around. Should a complete set with the lengthened pentaprism come to the market I would expect a price of at least 75.000 USD. The last one that came to auction made 55.000 USD at Tamarkin in 2007. Only a few were made in 1938 and 1939 for use with the PLOOT reflex housing. That means it is for screw-mount cameras only. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Artichoke Posted May 14, 2010 Share #4 Posted May 14, 2010 some Telyt lenses come with a rifle stock my 560 f5.6 has one I got mine as a bargain buy from KEH a few years ago for well under $1K I used it with the M8 where its alleged edge softness was not a problem I haven't used it with my M9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

earleygallery Posted May 14, 2010 Share #6 Posted May 14, 2010 Would cause an 'interesting' reaction out on the streets! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wattsy Posted May 14, 2010 Share #7 Posted May 14, 2010 Advertisement (gone after registration) Would cause an 'interesting' reaction out on the streets! Yes, can you imagine the reaction if you used it to try and take some snaps of the Queen during trooping the colour or Obama on a walkabout. Alternatively, try explaining to the friendly Mr Plod doing a section 44 search that you are not Edward Fox from The Day of the Jackal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanJW Posted May 15, 2010 Share #8 Posted May 15, 2010 Wouldn't an SLR be a simpler solution? For the 75,000 you could have a Canon1ds and a really long lens and an S2 and some lenses and a nice car too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
