Japanese-made scopes can be very good.

I just thought the statement this guy made was, well, ironic.

The only scopes I have any real reservation with are the Chinese-made ones. Back before I could afford scopes like NightForce, I found that the Philippine-made models were very serviceable, Japanese-made were out of my putting 3 kids through school budget. At least they contributed to the deaths of a lot of deer. Savage 110s and Tasco scopes!
