I dropped a lot of money back in the day for a tri-power Trijicon on my AR duty rifle. 7 years later, I had issues with it's illumination. I contacted Trijicon and told them the issue I was having. "We don't support that model anymore" the nice lady said. I told them, "Ok, I get the warranty is over so I'm willing to pay for it". "No you don't understand, we don't support that model. However, go to our website and check out the newer models that replaced it". "Will I get a credit or price break?" "No, but our newer models are much smaller and worth looking over". "Do they have a lifetime warranty?" "No, nobody really has that anymore". "Well Leupold still does, so why should I buy a second optic from you if I have to replace it in another 5 or 7 years?" She hung up on me.
I still have that first delta point pro on my duty weapon. It serves flawlessly and since it's a weapon mounted optic, it has the life time warranty. Pay once, cry once.
