PS! Kahles is actually (I believe) the oldest optics company in europe. They were aquired by Swarovski. But Swaro is the premier of the company. The highest end coatings and most of the research goes to Swaro. Kind of like Cadillac and Chevy. Kahles represents excellent optics in a price range that seems to be about 30-40% less than Swaro. But I have never read about or heard anyone putting them in the same class as the Big 3 or Nikon. In fact, I found the Meopta Meostars better than the kahles binocs. Have not tried the Kahles scopes yet
