Just got my new VX3 1.5-5x20. My power adjustment selector is upside down. 1.5 is actually 5 power, and vice versa. WTF!!!

Well.

That's peculiar.


What are you going to do?

That's the New York version, where everything is backwards, not upside down....

Are those DedNutz scope rings/mount?
Posted By: Steelhead Re: Leupold issue. - 08/28/15
I think the rings might be upside down, it's an optical illusion (notice the double entendre?)
Posted By: troutfisher13111 Re: Leupold issue. - 08/28/15
I am going to leave it as is for now. Getting ready to sight it in to take on a bear hunt. Might not ever do anything as long as nothing else is affected.

I may need to stand on my head to shoot it crazy

Its like that postage stamp where part of it was printed upside down, it'll be worth millions!

Are you sure it's not a knockoff? Lots of those on Ebay I hear.

That's a hoot for sure.

It seems to be legit. I bought it from opticsplanet.

I have no comment, just shaking my head.

So you actually got it mounted on the rifle before you noticed? Jesus. mtmuley
Posted By: 1Nut Re: Leupold issue. - 08/28/15
Just turn it around. eek

Not good, but see no reason why it won't get you through your hunt.
Posted By: BobinNH Re: Leupold issue. - 08/28/15
First thing that would pop into my head is..."What else did they screw up?" eek

Send it back.

No, I am leaving for a bear hunt and really want to use this rifle, so I decided to mount it anyways. It was a last minute replacement for another scope.

I can't tell if that is sarcasm but it seems like an absurd comment given the situation unless it is sarcasm which would mike it funny.

That's probably a 2-week turn around for Leupold. They would be very interested in this.
Posted By: Hammerdown Re: Leupold issue. - 08/29/15
Poor quality.

Someone prolly thought that was funny when they made it.


Jokers
Posted By: GeorgiaBoy Re: Leupold issue. - 08/29/15
I'd be willing to say that they will not think it was funny when it comes back! If a joke was the intent in the first place?
Posted By: DakotaDeer Re: Leupold issue. - 08/29/15
You're going on a special bear hunt, and you just put an untested scope on your rifle just before you're ready to leave???

Hope you've got a backup rig ready to roll.
Posted By: navlav8r Re: Leupold issue. - 08/29/15
You put it on backwards smile

Dude, where's the DiamondCoat go?
Uhhh, I don't know, I'm busy working on the Quantum thingy.
Hey, help me out, which end is the objective?
It's opposite the Twilight Extender...
Cool. Dude, where's the DiamondCoat go?
Uhhh, you just asked me that!
Oh, yahh, hahaha, that's funny. Like, is it breaktime yet? whistle
