    I "discovered" Discovery scopes a few years ago after some fairly disappointing experiences with the quality of Hawkes.

    The glass is good, the images are sharp, and they are reliable.

    My favourite is/was their flagship model 5-30×56 FFP with HD lenses. These scopes are simply superb... BUT Discovery changed the design of this model in May 2021, and the new ones are horrid.
    It seems they took a close look at everything which was good about this scope, and went on a quest to make it bad.

    If anyone knows where an old one can be found, please let me know.
