There are two versions of the Colt 4x20 scope, this is the earlier version with the engraved 'Colt' logo made by Tasco, as opposed to the later painted logo made by Hakko.

The 3 x 20 has a similar marking history, with the engraved logo on the early USA made 'Realist' version and the same engraved logo on the later 'Japan'  Tasco made 3 x 20.

The box is marked 'Made in Japan' and the barrel of the scope is marked 'Japan'.

This scope is the earlier version made by (Tasco) .
