Re: Schmidt and Bender 3x20

Don't believe there any where close to being released

Re: Schmidt and Bender 3x20

I was told that S&B is presently working on filling the order for the German military. The FBI have not even received theirs yet as far as I know. Then there's us....
More like April/May... maybe.
 
Re: Schmidt and Bender 3x20

They told me maybe April of 12 and that was 3 months ago. I went ahead and got another 5-25. I'd rather be out shooting instead of worrying about getting the latest and greatest.

I move fast, distill to the bare facts, and I abbreviate (3x20). My Dad, who is a very successful civil engineer, must know all details. Since the 3x20 only comes in one flavor as far as I know, I distill.

My Alpha scope rings are still waiting.

It's just like computer "vaporware." Throw out a product for the buzz factor.

Gasser,

You're missing the point. 3x20 indicates a fixed 3x magnification with a 20mm exit objective. I don't think that exists for S&B

3-20 indicates variable magnification range with 3x as the lowest and 20x as the highest, and the scope you're discussing.
