Hi Pepperdog
This is the first I've heard about problems with the coating on the Viper's, so if you or anyone else has a problem with the coating or anything else on their scope, please let us know so that we can put it right.
If we are not informed that there is a problem in the first place, then how can we put it right?.
So please, if you have a problem, don't just sit on it, give me a call
Sammie
