I have a NOS Minox ZA 3-9x40 that held up fine for 6 shots on a 257 Roberts before it went haywire. Also worth noting that the minox CS is through the BLASER folks now as that’s who handles there distributorship. I sent the scope in a month ago for what I was told would be a 2-3 week wait. 2 and a half weeks after mailing the scope I hadn’t even received communication that it had been received. USPS tracking showed they had had the scope for 2 weeks. I followed up with an email. I received a response a couple days later that my scope had been received and would be shipped to Germany for repairs later that week.
Between a universally reported lack of durability that matches my experience, the fact that it’s Doug’s deal anymore , and now CS that’s fair to middling at best there’s no reason to buy a minox scope. APO HG Bino’s are killing it still lots of trips and years and hours staring through them later.
