I think the real question is: Will they stay on top of things quality-wise, or trust to the tender mercies of their suppliers? Some contract manufacturers are committed to putting out a quality product and having a long-term relationship with a customer, and others will start cutting corners at the first opportunity. I suspect a lot of importers flit from flower to flower looking for the best deal as well, and that might have something to do with the attitude of the offshore suppliers.

Only Vortex stuff I have is a red dot and a 10x42 bino I got for Christmas. Both are Chinese and have worked just fine so far.

What fresh Hell is this?
