The Redfield Battlezone, everywhere you look on the website, you see made in the USA advertised on almost all of Redfields site, except any page referencing the battlezone. I was noticing this when a friend and old sniper told me that a local gunshop had one of them under glass. I promptly went to do the touchy feely, with it and was impressed by the clarity, fit and feel, of the scope, you have to understand that I am used to the old military issued, and Leupold, which was purchased for a one of a kind rifle by my old admiral, the scope was looking very good , almost to good for the price. That's when I saw red (pun intended) in small red letters on the side under the elevation turret, Made in Philipines. Still liked look and feel and if it is warranted by Leupold I don't think you can go wrong and you can get it for under $200, I know, not made in USA or any of the great European factories, just remember this is a global economy now.
I love the smell of gunpowder in the morning, it smells like liberty is coming.
