As previously posted,leupold scopes boast about being made in America,yet they use asian lenses.Perhaps not made in China,but certainly not made in America.
That figures...No wonder Nikon premium brand optics appear to be much brighter than the Gold Rings....
But being assembled in America does mean something..Leupold durability/custumer Serviceis first rate..
Until they solve that hurdle,Guess my next purchase is Zeiss as long as they can talk english..
