i am looking for some advice on a budget scope i already own a cheap picollo scope which i find perfectly usable for my birding but recently i was attacked whilst on my way to work, this has knocked my confidence somewhat and i no longer feel comfortable being out and about on my own as much, and i feel less comfortable carrying around the scope on a tripod in full view so i am looking to replace the picollo with something more compact i can fit in a bag when im walking about. i dont know too much about scopes and i dont really take birding too seriously its just a hobby so im not after supreme optical performance just a usable scope for a keen amateur like myself.
the only compact models i can find in my price range are makes like nipon on ebay which ive never heard about, i would buy 2nd hand and can only afford around £100
thanks in advance for any help.
