Great deal on 10x scopes, but I don’t need any. I did buy two sets of their great rings.

If I recall correctly,Chris and someone else has. Had two pards end up with wonkie ones from The Sample List. I doubt I barely have a dozen of them in service,but have always pinned magnification at 4x to align erector with windshield and drive them as Illuminated Fixed Fhuqkers. Hint.

These were slated to a trio of stripped lowers,I have blowing in the wind and I ain't aspooked,as I've flogged on mine rather goodly. Hint..............

I've had two that had issues. First was bought off the sample list and would not focus. The replacement worked fine for all of a couple trips to the hills (used on an AR-15) and then the magnification ring seized up. Pulled it off and sent it back and the third has been peachy through a few hundred rounds. Only complaint was most of this went down during covid and sometimes it took a while to get a replacement. Not blaming SWFA for that, but it was still a mild nuisance.

Sometimes my luck amazes me.

Thanks for the heads up KK.

SS10x42 and low rings headed my way. Great scope for $200. I've other SS scopes, solid like a rock. The SS rings are good to go too.

Alright, just for sh*ts & giggles, I bought a SS 1-4x24.

Is this another one of those deals where I wait a year for the scope to ship? grin

I have one currently riding my scope-killer Mini-14. If it survives there, I’ll call it good. Nearing the 200-round mark.

Really like it otherwise, especially on sale.

A 10 & a 12x coming to Kentuck along with several ring sets & some lense covers.

Have read here that the 12x lacks compared to the 10, but at the money they're selling for this week I just had to see for myself.

I ordered a 10x yesterday at lunch and by 3PM it had been scanned by the local post office.

I’m really PO’d that I didn’t think to look at sample list at the ass crack of dawn Monday morning. Looked like 3+ 3-9x42’s went for under $500.

Acquaintance had a turret push in the tube when it fell over while leaning against something. From what I understand it wasn't a hard landing, just slipping over.

They don't have the "OK for 50 Caliber" note that most of the SWFA's do.

I ordered a 10x yesterday along with several pairs of rings and a few levels......tough to beat for the $.

I have a 12x42 and no complaints. Originally mounted on a 22rimjob I used for club NRL22 shoots, it's on a 223 bolt gun now, works as it should.

Those fixed 10's for $200 is the deal of the year. I already have 4 and 2 are backups but I might think I need more...
