I've been using a dirt cheap, Chinese manufactured scope for the last four years or so. I brought it as a 'stop gap' whilst I saved up for something decent, like I said four years!

The point is it holds its zero and whilst the glass is obviously allegedly not the 'best' in the world, it does it's job and is perfectly adequate for MY needs and requirements.

Fact that is doesn't carry a sexy, expensive known name may bother some but I'm not fussed. Need to remember that a lot of scopes are manufactured or, at least, contain Chinese components.

Make your own conclusions. ��
