that's good to know.. My Sightron Instruction Manual states;
Sightron Inc., will repair this product or replace the product at Sightron's sole option,
free of charge (except for a $7.50 handling fee) for life, from the date of original purchase,
in the event of a defect in material or workmanship. This warranty is extended only
to the original purchaser. A purchase reciept or other proof of date
or original purchase will be required before warranty performance is rendered.
a great selling point for the scope!!
