    Rifle Scopes zeiss

    Re: zeiss Have you called Zeiss? You should not be having a problem like that with a $3000 scope. You should be all over customer service if you are having problems like that. One of the things that Zeiss charges a premium for is the glass and optical design. That particular scope is...

    Scars fad or not?

    Re: Scars fad or not? I have to jump in to say that my SCAR-17s is a very nice piece of equipment that I thought long and hard about buying. The bottom line for me was that it is a very well built and well designed rifle. It supplements my AR for a longer-reach system. Accuracy wise, it...
