I have never heard of a scope company pulling out of a spiral, but have seen several who didn’t. Glad I don’t own any.

I have one of their 10x scopes w/ side parallax adjustment and it's a nice scope. Hopefully they can find a way out, but things don't look good for SWFA at this point.

It never has been a very well run business.

I have never heard of a scope company pulling out of a spiral, but have seen several who didn’t. Glad I don’t own any. I’m not worried at all about any I own now, but might want one or two more. Maybe the new models took the production time reserved for the Sainted 6x42s, hence none available. If the dearth continues I might snag a 10x JIC.
What fresh Hell is this?

Nothing specific. "They're coming, don't know when." Updated fixed power scopes will likely start coming in toward mid/late summer. I did a Livestream on that last night. https://youtube.com/live/bx6wLjCV28A?feature=shareILya

I don't understand "Tuesday/late Summer." Updated fixed power scopes will likely start coming in Tuesday mid/late summer.

Thanks for providing your video, don’t have time to sit and watch it at the moment. Are you able to break out the key info from it? Thanks

Thanks Updating fixed power scopes will start getting in toward late summer. 6x, 10x, 12x, and 16x. Not sure about 20x. I think 10x and 12x will be the first. 6x will be with Mil quad and MOA quad reticles. Higher power ones will also get Mrad and MOA tree reticles. There are new turrets that can be covered or open. Elevation turret has a zero stop. The guts of the scopes remain more or less the same, so we can expect them to be durable like the originals. Even the covered turrets are pretty tall. Still, I like to cover the windage turret and I am very happy to see the zero stop and the tree reticle in higher powered models. ILya

Ilya, do you know if the 3 to 9 will be available with capped windage and exposed elevation? Or is it all or none?
