How durable?

Re: opinion on COUNTER SNIPER optics

Evidently they are moving their manufacturing facility to a town within 30 miles of me.I started hearing the name come up in some of my circles. from the sounds of it they were probably forced out of the last town buy the laghter of a bunch of gun junkies. lol! At any rate even though I was thrown to the wolves here,at least you guys saved me the shame of being seen on teir front porch trying to see what the hype was about. HA HA HA !


THANKS guys: Love the forum, and the abuse kinda makes me feel all warm and fuzzy! Talk to you tomorrow.

They are in Springfield now. I am pretty sure it is just an address though and they do not have a "manufacturing facility" but rather a back room where they come up with the bullshit advertising.

For the WIN!!

That is freakin funny.
 
Re: opinion on COUNTER SNIPER optics

I'm somewhat embarrassed to say I know someone who owns both <span style="text-decoration: underline">Ultimate Sniper</span> and a CSO scope. When he showed the scope to me, he was sure to tell me it was a "military contract overrun" and that he got a really good deal ($450, OUCH!!).

I didn't have the heart to tell him that "military overrun" actually means some Chinese factory built a bunch of overpriced Barskas, CSO tried to sell them to a Transylvanian militia, and the militia wouldn't piss on them if they were on fire. So now he owns what he thinks is a surplus item from the Marine Scout Sniper armory.

To be totally fair, the glass looked pretty good through the bay window, no joke! I wasn't about to twist a turret and break the thing, though. So I said, "wow the glass is surprisingly clear! So, wanna get a sandwich or something?"

Re: opinion on COUNTER SNIPER optics

^ That bites! I guess it's just one more reason to stay out of Springfield. Traffic sucks, prices are high, and now CS! bah!
 
Re: opinion on COUNTER SNIPER optics

Would anyone like to explain to me why counter sniper optics are so bad? only reason i can see is the terribly confusing reticle system they have going on.

Thanks
 
Re: opinion on COUNTER SNIPER optics

Read the review, it failed the box test miserably. Failed the drop test too.
 
Re: opinion on COUNTER SNIPER optics

Ok cheers will do.

Edit:

Wow i read the review, thats pretty dismal, sounds like a company who are so far up their own ass they cant see any longer.

Sounds like an airsofters scope to me, if you really want to spend thousands of dollars on it.

shame

They wanted to be closer to their main customer base, now the ninjas don't even have to leave the mall.
 
Re: opinion on COUNTER SNIPER optics

They are so ashamed of there piece of shit scopes(hell i dont even want to call them that)aluminum tubes with broken off pop bottles stuck in each end.....there thats better....The only thing it says on the door to the place is D.O.holdings and a phone number under the name and in very small letters under that it says proud supplier of c.s. optics....
 
Re: opinion on COUNTER SNIPER optics

I found out a little more today.
It is part of Dark Opps.
Saw the building,it's off of Sunset west of Kansas Expressway about a half mile on the right.
Not much of a sign or advertisement,but from the sound of things thats pobably for the best.lol!
Didn't have my phone or camera with me or I would have gotten u a pic. lol!

absolutely...actually it would be very pleasant if there was some way when a new member went to type the question and it did a analysis looking for the words (Counter Sniper, Barska, NC Star, Osprey and the likes) it wouldnt let them submit the post, and a screen would pop up saying said scope is a POS

Re: opinion on COUNTER SNIPER optics

I have a feeling many of you are holding a prejudice against these fine scopes. I too wondered about the Counter Sniper and decided to give it a real workout. First, I mounted it on a Savage 340 chambered in 30 WCF. (With other optics, this rifle will routinely shoot 1 shot 1 hole groups when fed proper ammo.) Shooting the "Box" Drill (empty refrigator cardboard box) at 100 yards, I can stay within the range. Tough? Well, it easily withstands the recoil of the 30 WCF round. Glass? I can easily see the moon on clear nights. Repeatability? I have checked this feature several times and the elevation turret knob has always been found on the top.
Don't scoff at what you've not actually tried yourself.
Semper Fi!

hey buddy, i see that you are in NC, i would love to come out and see the miraculous Counter Sniper do exactly what you just said it would do, better yet i would like to shoot it and confirm for myself, and if you misread my post, let me make it clear for you. I have one and know exactly what i was talking about. I can see the moon on a clear night with a glass coke bottle, does that mean i can mount it on my rifle, oh please tell me this is true. I will save so much money

Ive looked through these hunks of shit enough to know how horrible they are. They are the equivilant of looking through a magnified fucking condom. They are some of the worst fucking things Ive ever seen.

You need to remove that Semper Fi from your post, lest the rest of the Marines walking this planet get lumped in with you and be looked down upon by the rest of the elementary school grads of the world.
