    Even genuine Tasco scopes are made in China aren't they?

    I got a 2-6 x 32 for £29 all in, it's great.

    i've had my socpe for a month now and everything is fine For the money you can't go wrong imho...... 36.00 all in for a 6-24x50aoe ir was a bargin!

    the optics are nice and clear, i have milldots and a little system at the bottom, for (i think) guageing the size of your quarry, which also helps the range finding?? the zoom and range finder work smoothly... I cant ask for much more from a cheap scope

    Again ya get what ya pay for!

    Tasco have never had there own factory or made anything,It is a brand name!
    In the early days there stuff was decent and made by optical light warehouse or HAKO in Japan.
    It has changed owners numerous times in the past few years.
    The Yanks now call the brand Trashco because quite frankley thats what it is.

    All low brand Bushnell and tasco are the same item cheap S***.

    I had a 2.75x40 Japan made tasco in the early 80's excellent quality as as are the World Class and similar ilk.

    Check out Chuck Hawkes web site, he will tell you all about it!!!!!
