I keep seeing on various sites about German sniper rifles mentions about Zf39 and Zf 42 (5x scope) being used with the KAR98K rifle in the sniper role. However, when i try to find details about them (including pictures), it is impossible. All i get is Dyalitan, Zf41,Zf4, Kahles, etc. On another specialised forum, no one even heard of a Zf 42. Can someone clear these out? (btw , i tried even on auction sites, but no effect)
Thank you,
Radu.
The 'phantom' scopes: Zf42 and Zf39. Any info?

Hello to all ; about the previous photo...................
it is actually a Hensoldt-Wetzlar DIALYTAN 4x. But someone pointed out to me that the weapon has a folding monopod..........was this type of support, artisanal adaptation, common? Cheers. Raúl M .The soldier in the foreground carries a rifle with a telescopic sight (ZF39 Scope?)
