Optic retailers
« on: October 16, 2013, 07:21:16 AM »
What retail stores on the west side carry higher end optics?  I'm shopping and would like to do some side by side comparisons.  I'm looking for spotters and binos.  I'm looking hard at Swaros.

The Audubon Society store has a bunch to compare.  If you are a hunter you may want to do some attitude adjustment before visiting.

I have never used them but you may want to rent the optics your looking at instead of just playing with them at a store.
optics4rent.com

Pretty cheap when you consider you get to use them in the field and find out if you really want them.
People get offended at nothing at all. So, speak your mind and be unapologetic.
