Yes the lineup has been replaced by the conquest HD
Has Meopta purchased rights to make it under the Zeiss name?
Meopta is the OEM who has been making it from day one for Zeiss
Id Meopta is making it, will it continue to be available? Or is this temporary?
AS long as it sells Meopta will make it

How does this benefit Meopta, or Zeiss?
It benefits Meopta, zeiss is out of the picture

Thanks. So Meopta does have the trademark rights to the Zeiss/Conquest name for this scope.

And, for as long as it sells, the Conquest will be presumably sold at roughly the $300 price tag. The question has been asked about warranty. Apparently Zeiss isn't backing these scopes, so Meopta would?

I think the Conquest I bought last February from EuroOptics is a closeout. Wouldn't mind having another.

Meopta Meopro 3-9x40 is Meoptas version and it does not sell for 300 dollars. the 300 $ conquests could be a final run for Zeiss, they might have a bunch of tubes and assemblies still in stock.

And, for as long as it sells, the Conquest will be presumably sold at roughly the $300 price tag. The question has been asked about warranty. Apparently Zeiss isn't backing these scopes, so Meopta would?

Have you checked with Zeiss to see if they warranty their own product?

Why would meopta warranty another manufacturers scope?
That would be like sending a Bushnell scope directly to Light Optical Works.

I think the Conquest I bought last February from EuroOptics is a closeout. Wouldn't mind having another.

Meopta is located in LI NY as is the location of the purported Zeiss assembly plant.
