Where do you find long scopes in 0.50?

Where do you find long range scopes since the 0.50 update? I have searched and searched and haven't found any...  where do you guys suggest to find one?

Haven't found one either

We really need a question and answers sub forum.

So many of these threads where someone asks where x item is after each patch.

They're rare, but can be found in a variety of spawns. Picked one up last night in a set of the grouped garages that can be found in every major settlement, that's my suggestion.

I found one in the upstairs room in the pub.

I have a pso-1 and long range scope(one on the Mosin) in my backpack..

Didnt take long to find the first one for the Mosin.Picked a town and looked in every house /building on one side of the street,and then worked my way back up the other side of the street.

I've actually found another. If you're playing on the public hive, I'll trade ya five tins of beans for it.

I've found a lot more than in residential areas than I'm used to. Places like garages are a hot-spot as far as I've been able to discern so far =) Good luck.

I wanna know where the damn PSO-1 scope went.  Its my main defense against snipers...

Ill post you pictures, of which buildings spawn long scopes. Have found plenty after the patch:

 

http://dayz.gamepedia.com/File:PoliceStation_2a.jpg  -> search every room of the police station.

 

http://dayz.gamepedia.com/File:School_1a.jpg            -> ontop of the school usually. You have to press tab and walk around but usually you see the scope on top.

 

http://dayz.gamepedia.com/File:StorageUnit_3a.jpg    -> simple garages also spawn longrange scopes, if not there is usually a pu-scope.

 

http://orcz.com/DayZ_Standalone:_Corner_Pub          -> go to a persistent server and you'll find a scope 100%. Usually there's also mosin ammo and a compensator in there.

 

http://orcz.com/DayZ_Standalone:_House_-_Peach    -> you find them stacked in the shelfs

 

and basically every unlooted ATC-Tower has a high chance of whether spawning a: Compensator/Longrange scope/PU-Scope/PSO-1 Scope/weapon flashlight.

 

I hope I could help you :)
