It appears that with Vortex and Nightforce you can buy a used scope and the manufacture will still support with a warranty. Certainly Vortex makes this clear on their web site and it appears Nightforce will handle the same way. My question is in regards to Bushnell. I noticed on their web site they state for life of the ORIGINAL owner. How does it work in the "real world" with Bushnell if you have a used scope. Will they fix it at no charge, or are you out of luck?
