Slow turnaround but they do excellent work. They've done 2 Denver Redfields for me.
Last one(this year) was a 5 month turnarouind.

Ironsight did one for me...It took me over 4 months I believe it was, would have to look it up and see to be sure. They repair the older Redfield scopes. I sent them a 3x9 Illuminator Redfield and it came back just like new....believe it was $100.

Last one was 3 months, they have one now, their work seems excellent and the price is cheap, IMHO....
Several Weaver K2.5s, a K-10, change a reticle from fine wire to a plex no charge.
I can't complain about them....

ABO USA has always been able to repair my Weavers and Redfield scopes. It is in Florida ---"google it" I am sure they work on other brands.

Count me as a fan of Ironsight, Inc. I had them replace a broken reticle in a Japanese Weaver V16, took about 4 months. Call Rachael and make it happen.

plab Larry MAYHEM??.............LOL NO. It was a former Weaver Employee. I believe his name was Frank Ruiz? Anyway the OLD address before they went out of business and Iron Site bought their tooling was- 1121 Larry Mahan Drive, Ste B El Paso, TX 79925 Larry Mahan was a famous Rodeo Cowboy from the 1970s- (no relation to Mr. "Mayhem")

Parson’s did a fantastic job, in a fantastic way, for me & my Dad. They might be strictly limited to Lyman products, however.

I dropped off two scopes at Ironsight in Tulsa back on November 11th. I received them back last week. Have not tried either yet but they are nice folks and reasonable prices and I believe they do quality work.
