opinions on Minox
« on: October 26, 2011, 05:28:05 PM »
I'm not a hardcore rifle guy, but I like quality stuff.  I'm looking at scopes  3+/- to 14 +/- power in the $400-$500 range.   I've seen lots of threads on high end glass, but not much in this range.   Opinions?????? :dunno:

Many people have been very happy with the scopes. I havent gotten into one yet since they are distributed in USA. I do however have their binos and they are fantastic.

Minox switched to a full blown cover all warranty too.

It sounds like it's time to get a new gun.
