I have a an old pair of their DCF binos 8x42 and I have beaten the tar out of them and they have never failed me in 11 years. Don't know about the scopes.

I have a NIB 4-16 X 50 30MM if you could use it--
No BS low down
I find it just a bit below the Millet 4-16 X 56 30MM-- better than a Muller or BSA
And it will not touch a Nikon 6-18 or a Nitrex 6-20 with a 1" tube.
I is not in the Leupold zipcode
The scope is not clear all the way to the edge.
If you were using it on a 22 or such I would say yes other wise stay away.
If you want one bad I will take $125 for my 4-16 shipped and you can give her a try
If it jams force it! If it breaks it needed replacing anyway.

Thats a Pentax 1 1/2x4 power handgun scope mounted on my FA`s 475 Its an old scope and ran out of adjustment when sighting in the 400gr XTP bullets and I had to use 6 inches of Kentucky windage when shooting that load through the FA`s. However, it`s of good quality and a shame that its not being made anymore.....

James that one would be like the Lightseeker quality--their upper line of scopes is pretty nice

The wind was coming in from behind me in that picture and it surely was a cold day....

I did that once too, I took my aisian buff and monster hog the first week of Jan, and it was 10deg but with wind chill it was below zero. The first time I ever had my mustache freeze solid from my breath when hunting.
