When I was disassembling a pistol I did loose a part. Next time if I lose a part I bet I'll find it.
Don't roll those bloodshot eyes at me.

Wah-ka-zash-shee. If you go to the countries where the 1st and 4th are made, they aren't going to have a clue what you're saying and thus why I asked the OP where he was going with this. They are pronounced "LI-Kah" and "Svor-off-skee

I've had countless people tell me it is supposed to be Lou-pold but it seems 90% of the people in my area say Lee-uh-pold. I have one of those LICAs on my digital camera.....

The local gun shop in my town was telling me about "Swavarski" lol. This was awhile back and I had to go home and google the name to make sure I hadn't been mispronouncing it the whole time.

Leupold is pronounced LOO-pold, at least by all the people in the Leupold family I've met.
