From what I've seen, for a:
* Japanese-built
* 2-10 (or similar) variable
* 40mm or 50mm objective
* Non-Christmas Tree (BDC or #4ish) reticle]
* 1" tube
* < 24 oz

How about the Steiner GS3 2-10x42 - 4A #5009? We have it on sale for only $599.99. German optics assembled in CO


Doug: Steiner designed in Germany, made in China, and partially assembled in CO ?

I suspect that is how they are built.


My understanding is German optics and assembled in Colorado. The only time China is involved is if Chinese food is ordered in for lunch in Colorado


Jeez that was funny!
