Does anyone have any info on these scopes? Anybody own one?
I have one of their Binos and they are well worth the money. Hope this helps
The majority are made in China, the top of the line models are made in Japan
I had the Passion 6x 2.5-15 and was truly impressed with the glass. For the $$, there was nothing I had seen that matched it in terms of resolution, contrast, edge-to-edge sharpness, etc. The glass itself was amazing in low light. The build quality was top-flight as well. However, the illumination on its lowest setting was overpowering -- to the point of being useless once you got to 20 or so minutes after sundown. GPO had no solution to the issue, so I had to send it back. I just can't understand building a high-quality scope intended for low-light applications and then hamstringing it with a cheap and useless illumination system, but GPO isn't the only one to do such. Building a scope with a 56mm objective and featuring high-noon-only illumination just makes me scratch my head and wonder why...

At what price range are the "top of the line" models, or better yet what are their top of the line models called? All I see are the Passion models? Also, how good are these scopes??

Zeiss does the same thing.
The products are designed and quality controlled in Germany but made in various places in the Pacific Rim

Not really....
Reminds me of “Chicago Tool”.... made in China. I think there’s Pittsburg Tool now, also made in China. I remember when I was a kid, I remember a company that sold a lot of brass-plated stuff. Picture frames and stuff. The name of the company was “Solid Brass”
Not following this line of thought?

Here's a complete review:
review GPO 2.5-15x56
I have had the 4-12×42(phillipines) 4-12x50 iluminated reticle (japan)and now have the 6-24x50 (japan).
I liked them all. Good products. No twisting turrets though. Glass is pretty good.
I also have the gpo passion hd 8x42 and they r fantastic.
