No one advertised their scopes as " broken" when they sold them to me.

So I wonder how many of us even know our Leupolds are " broken".


I’d think twice about sending an older one in, might come back worse with one of the new errectors in it. I’ve had the best luck with gloss+friction. The one matte friction I bought in the 2000’s was a now infamous random number generator.
