I am looking to buy a fixed 12 power scope and was wondering which one of the 2 listed was a better scope or I am open to suggestions of the similar priced scopes. Also does anyone know when the Swfa scopes will be available?
 
Re: Wotac or Swfa

SWFA for sure! Wotac is getting shitty CS reviews right now! And latest I have heard is the end of July on the new mil-mil scopes.
 
Re: Wotac or Swfa

SWFA.

While one could argue 'NF vs USO' is like 'Ford vs Chevy' ... 'SWFA vs WOTAC' is like 'Anne Hathaway vs Kathy Bates'
 
Re: Wotac or Swfa

Absolutely SWFA, you can't beat their customer service. To top it off they make great scopes!
 
Re: Wotac or Swfa

Another +1 for SWFA, and their mil/mil scope should be in very soon...
 
Re: Wotac or Swfa

I've owned both and the SWFA is a far superior scope. The wotacs have some appealing features but the quality of the SWFA is awesome. I'd take another plain mildot mil/moa SWFA over the mil/mil wotac any day.
 
Re: Wotac or Swfa

I have owned the fixed 10x SWFA for about six years of hard use at the ranch and has never failed. Yes, i'm bias.

Re: Wotac or Swfa

I have never heard anything good about wotac. Ever. I, on the other hand have heard lots of good reviews about SS's. So thats why I'm buying the combo deal, good luck.
 
Re: Wotac or Swfa

SWFA for sure, wotac is a shit product and shit company run by a thief. Never ever buy a wotac product.
 
Re: Wotac or Swfa

After the responses the decision was an easy one. Now the wait for the mil/mil scopes to be released 1s going to be hell.

Re: Wotac or Swfa

Man that sucks. I think I would be calling him and telling him that if I didn't have my scope back within a week that I would be filing a complaint with the BBB and putting a write up on every forum of the costumer service that I received.
Does he have a store front were a forum buddy could stop by a pick it up in person. People usually will change their attitude if you are staring them in the face.
 
Re: Wotac or Swfa

Nope, on the store front and Beepy I'm soory to hear that but you won't get blood out of a turnip, it's a lost cause. I'm just glad I got my money back (2) years ago when he was still in business.
