Just picked up 2 of the 3-9s for $109 each. Pretty darned hard to beat them at that price
I just ordered two myself when I saw the price,are they still made in the Philipines? Just as good as they were a decade ago?
A decade ago they were made in the Philippines.
Don't remember the exact year the production went there, but it was before 2012. Do know that instead of just having a factory over there make an approximation, Burris provided the tooling and instructed the workers on how to use it. (Have written about this many times before.)
Have found the Philippine FFIIs just as good as the American-made version. In fact, the only 3-9x40 FFII I've had to get repaired was my last U.S.A. scope--which had been on a BUNCH of rifles over the years. This was a couple years ago, and Burris got it back to me within two weeks, and it's been working fine ever since.
