japlover: The Leupold & Stevens Company is now run by the FIFTH (thats FIVE for you dullards!) generation family of owners! Sheesh - speaking of stupidity. Long live Leupold & Stevens Corporation - a fine AMERICAN (not jap!) company. Hold into the wind VarmintGuy
Sorry about getting my family generations wrong. Maybe these kids will be the ones who file Chapter 11.
I'll take a Japanese made optic any day of the week over a USA optic, such as March.
