scope information

I found a page that was interesting and thought some of the guys on here might like to take a look

It deals with most scope companys , brief history and performance of the thier scopes and place of manufacture and who owns them now.

for instance:

“”Some folks like to make hay of the fact that Leupold imports its lenses from Japan. It is important to realize that the level of quality of a lens and its coating, no not matter where it is from, is specified by the customer, and priced by the manufacturer accordingly. In other words, a lens used by Leupold ordered from the same plant that also makes an entire Weaver scope, is not necessarily the same quality lens.””

I Didnt know that!
