That's all you can ask.

I don't expect military-grade performance out of hunting gear, I don't use them like a fighting rifle, but do like things to hold up. I have had similar events like you've mentioned, accidents but not deliberate abuse. So far, what I have does hold up.

This particular scope has kind of caught my attention, and what you say may cause me to buy one.


I said that just so you'd know you would be partially responsible....(grin)
