    The russian SNO T sextant has a sliding attachment, yes. I've fit the
    Tamaya scope on mine perfectly. So does the chinese Astra (Celestaire).

    Fred,
    
    I'd hoped that a Russian scope might fit the Tamaya, & was asking if
    anyone
    knew. I'm guessing the Tamaya was based on a German model, and someone
    said the
    Russian sextants were made in East Germany. The sliding-fit attachment
    on the
    Tamaya provides an excellent in-or-out adjustment for fine tuning the
    comparative brightness of the reflected and direct images. Figured it
    might be pretty
    standard.
    
    Anyway, I'd like to have collimating wires in a scope for the longer
    distances. But 12X? Holy mackerel! Can you control that thing on a
    handheld sextant?
