Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Optics Leupold Livestream Details

Why would they waste their time reading a thread if they don't care what's being said?

Look at you being all cordial and friendly like....Who took over BH’s online persona and replaced it with a mini skirt wearing hottie? 😂😎

Say that twice with a horseshoe mustache.

And they're all meeting up at Area 51 where they took Roy Clark's body.

Wherever they are, you can bet beefy erectors are shamelessly being white knuckled.

This will be the 1st fall since the late 1980's that I won't be carrying a rifle with a Leupold atop it. Mounted and zero'd 2 Nightforce NXS 2.5-10's and a similar powered Leica yesterday. 60+ Leupold scopes will sit idle this fall.

You are coming up with some good stuff. I take back 2 older outdated GFYs.

I don't know if they are reading this thread. But I'm not sure they don't care either.

It is possible they came here thinking they could feed us a bunch of bs as damage control. That clearly didn't go well. So perhaps they are starting to get a clue. The fact that they showed up, even if only to try to feed us bs, might indicate things are not going as well as they let on. I suspect they know they have issues. No matter what numbers they try to feed us, they know the real numbers. I also suspect they know how to fix the problems. The question is can they (continuing to build scopes in the US) put out a good product at a competitive price, and will the bean counters let them try?

Companies do sometimes turn around. I don't know how many times Colt quality has gone up and down.

I’m not sure they do know they have problems. I called Leupold 3 times and talked to 3 different people and got 3 different answers for the same question.

Leupold....

So did anyone here expect leupold to admit their scopes suck?

They were between a rock & a hard spot no doubt.... seems a smarter strategy would have been to say no to Doug's request. Create a sock puppet start a thread ask question then listen.
Or they could have simply done a search of past threads.
They made a decision to tell us how great they are and how stupid we are....
With these decision making skills it helps you understand how they are in the spot they are in.

I'm not surprised, but that is the people that answer the phone. I'd bet good money there are some engineers and technicians we don't get to talk to that know pretty damn well what the issues are. Corporate stupid is not technically stupid.

Again, I didn't see the webinar, but it sounds like there was a young guy ("flat brim") and an older guy. I wouldn't be surprised if corporate had to OK the webinar and they gave those two some pretty pointed instructions. I recall someone saying the older guy seem disinterested? Perhaps he wasn't happy about having to try to jerk us around with a bunch of bs?

I'm not defending Leupold at all. Just saying bad decisions at the front office can completely screw up what some very capable technical people are allowed to do.

My question was "what is the torque spec for the rings" I was given 3 different answers. Surely that qestion does not require an engineer to answer.

Oregon Farmer tight. That's 17% tighter than Florida farmer tight.

That’s funny...

Someone could label you as a troll for it, if he was a sensitive type. 😎

Well, maybe it does, but only once! You'd think they'd have that one memorized. Maybe they all do, just not all the same answer!

Leupold is starting to look like a circus clown act...... and they think we are the dummies... ha

Haha!
