We never had them. They never sold scopes in any store. Unless you knew someone with one. You had to buy one first. Their product line is extremely confusing and not easily understood what scopes have what features and reticles. Lastly cost =d insane.

S&B has decided to give sole USA distribution to EuroOptics and expect all USA authorized dealers to buy from Euro. We, and most other S&B dealers, have decided to cut ties with S&B and let them see how badly they have shot themselves in the foot with this decision to give 1 retailer control of their brand and a monopoly.
S&B is keeping their tech guys in VA. Hopefully they will see how important it is for them to continue to directly support their products.

It has impressed the hell out of me with it's repeatability and reliability. Almost everything I own is Nightforce now as a reference so I know what durable is. I bought this on a sale a few years ago at a great price and decided to give it a try. Glad I did. Sorry to hear they are doing what they are doing, I don't think it helps.

They made a mistake cutting out Camera Land and Doug.
Doug’s customer service is second to none, as many, many here will attest.
Also, an in-place distribution network is nothing to sneeze at.
But what do I know ...

I love their scopes (have several, the last of which was a Summit purchased from Doug) but the company has a reputation of being difficult to deal with.
