No experience with US Optics scopes. They make a couple LPVO's that interest me. Anyone got any first hand experience with them?

I’ve tested a couple on the jig and they were good. A friend who was a loyal US Optics user in precision matches gave up on them after a couple of bad ones and customer service that failed miserably

I had one about 10-12yrs ago. Power range was was something like 3.8-17 or some sort of flavor around that range. Thing was the biggest POS i owned.
Debris in the reticle and the illumination knob would turn on/off under recoil.
Ended up getting the illumination knob fix and sold it. Only USO I'd buy right now would be a MST-100.

China except for the Foundation series. TS stands for take that sucker. Now - does it matter? LOL Never handled one. Even sleazier than GPO? Uber?

Which LPVO? The TS series are Chinese manufactured, and as much as I like US Optics, I am not paying a premium for something made in China.
I have five different US Optics scopes, one of the older 3.2-17x SN3's, an older ST10 fixed 10x, and three of the newer FDN series in a fixed 10x, a 3.2-17x and 5-25x (all with the EREK knob).

The old optics from US OPTICS are excellent. Unfortunately, they now sell cheap China-mart junk at the lower-end. Be careful, and you get what you pay for.

I WAS looking at the TS 1-6. Guess I’ll take a hard pass on those. Thanks guys.
