now not wanting to start an internet war here but, i sure thought a few years ago both 4200 and 3200 both were advertised as being tested to 10,000 rounds ect... so i looked it up on buchnell,s website and you are correct about what you said 10,000 and the 1,000 rounds what they say now. how ever they state 1yr. no question ask warranty so is that saying they might or might not fix or repalce it after a year? asking cause i, been thinking of trying a 6500 now that they a gotten cheaper than they first were
