I am actually flattered that you think I’m posting here with some sort affiliation with Leopold.
You think I could call them up and ask if I could be their knight in shining armor against the cesspool that is 24HCF?
It seems you figured out how to use the quote function...

I said this on one of the many posts above : I don't think Leupold cares about the concerns of 24 Hr Campfire members. I'm not sure why.
I would have used the presentation as a PR opportunity. Alternatively, folks, myself included, wouldn’t have participated in Leupold's livestream, if they didn’t care. While each has their own reasons, I’d argue the vast majority arrived with hope for Leupold’s future. Whether that hope was driven by nostalgia, or lingering pride in what was an American icon, or just the simple utility of need, the welcome they received seems to have been construed as either graceless, patronizing, disingenuous or some combination of the three.

When you showed up. Fact is.... Leupold knows their tracking sucks... they don’t give a schitt.... because most of the general public can’t tell the difference. Frud’s picture above is worth 1000 words... period. Then, to top that off.... the day after the head of Leupolds Service Dept. got on here and Snow-Jobbed everyone about “1-week turn around times”.... Fruddy was told 4 weeks! You can’t make that kind of Bush-League schitt up.... and anyone who thinks that isn’t straight-up telling us they don’t care.... is either a fuggin moron.... or Redgwell’s twin brother.

JG was the next to the last (Jud  ) Leupold holdout. He gave them more than a fair chance. True. He held on for a damn long time. Like the rest of us that demand more from our equipment, he was wise to drop them like a hot potato. Of course thats what a smart person does, though, when you get burned one too many times.
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

I’m one of the least brand biased guys around. I am too. I was a Swaro slut until I got tired of their stuff breaking and me having to pay for it and being blamed for the breaking... Never own another Swaro. The CS guy was not happy when I told him I'd be selling all my Swaro stuff and switching brands, especially after he checked my sales history...

I seemed that way. You can certainly sense the anger here. I hope that they can put the wheels back on, but if their bean counters say all is well, nothing will change.

Only change was scopes. The Leupold right the NXS left. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.postimg.cc/bvMH7JPq/2-DE8-C7-FC-485-C-4434-AF48-3-EC9-B012-EA3-E.jpg) Both shot at 100 guess I can focus a Nightforce! Left was five shots right was 6 as I was going nuts over the way the rifle was shooting ie another busted Leupold [quote=fredIII]Only change was scopes. The Leupold right the NXS left. Man in my earlier years of shooting so many rifles were left st “oh well it’s minute of deer” with Leupys on them...”Yeah I flinched on those two” ... “something probably isn’t right” ... “wind caught that one”... I’m owed a few boxes of ammo, minimum.

I'm sensing some anger. I would write a pointed letter to whoever you feel is responsible for all this. I’m sensing some idiocy... Facts is Facts: Leupold straight-up LIED... to all our faces... and got caught the next f’n day. What else did they lie about? If I’m wrong.... please regale me....

Facts is Facts: Leupold straight-up LIED... to all our faces... and got caught the next f’n day. What else did they lie about? If I’m wrong.... please regale me... I'm still sensing some anger. And Leupold's behaviour is my fault because...  You need to focus your anger where it belongs. There's a few of you in that boat. But I've got thick skin, so fire away.
