Re: Price match guarantees on scopes. Work out the best deal you can with your vendor of choice. By doing what you have done you may have hurt the vendor that offered you the great price in the first place. Rather than kill the golden goose, buy from the people that offer you the best...

Re: MAP Pricing Structure Without small businesses (and I mean small business, not what the government terms as small businesses) and manufacturing this country is doomed to be a welfare nation, a third world step child.

Re: MAP Pricing Structure Yep this is why mom and pop stores are dinosaurs today. You can get cheap but service and knowledge are not available. Wal-Mart business model. I guess people will do anything to save a dollar and turn our country into China Mart. Its no wonder we don't...

Re: Got my Viper PST 4-16x50 today!! I think that it boils down to economics for manufacturers. They sell far more SFP scopes than they do FFP scopes. If and when the ratio is closer, I would imagine that pricing will be reflected.

Re: Vortex Viper (NOT PST) questions??? I own three Vipers. All function admirably, have never failed to return to zero, accurately track with much spinning of turrets and they feel fine. It is not a tactical scope, so don't expect $2K+ feel and you will be quite happy with the scope...

Re: Vortex Razor is there a price differance between I had not heard of any price difference! You need to contact Vortex about that one. Was this retailer one of the online dealers that are Hide sponsors by chance?

Re: Scope Lens Cleaning Sorry but they clearly state that acetone should be used for lens cleaning of their scopes and they have a video showing the process that they recommend. I guess finger nails are not their bag Here is the video US Optics Scope Lens Cleaning video
