Scope for .22 I of rifle

I am being offered a Bushnell 2-6x32aoe scope for what seems to an exorbitant rate of rs17000/00. The Bushnell site does not mention it. The aoe version seems to be for Airsoft guns only. Am I right?

Has anyone imported such a scope directly?

Thanks in advance.

Generally, Adjustable Objectives are found on .22 LR scopes. Adjustable Objectives help with parallax errors that people would experience while shooting at close ranges. Your average hunting scope is only parallax free at ranges over 100 yards. An AO scope is good to have if you are going to install it on a .22.
Nowadays, Adjustable Objectives are also found on pistol scopes and other rifle scopes.
If the Bushnell site doesn't show it, it could be an older scope. Bushnell's older Japanese made scopes were actually pretty good.
As far as I know Bushnell never made any scopes exclusively for Airsoft.

They did make a handgun scope in 2X6X32. It doesn't have an adjustable objective.

Scopes made in Europe, or for the European market, usually have readily adjustable oculars. Adjustable objectives will be found on some high-powered scopes intended for long range target shooting. But a scope for airsoft guns, whatever for? If any one makes such a thing, it is going to be a cheap plastic piece of cr-p.

Here is the link to identify a fake bushnell scope. I have seen these fake ones in India. http://club.dx.com/forums/forums.dx/threadid.709093
