minox zv3
 

im looking real hard at this as you said,does it have just regular hunting turrets or can they be twisted,so far its about the best buy ive seen

JD,

My feeling is that it is an "off brand", but I hear that their optics are actually pretty good !

I still want a lifetime warranty once I've made my choice - that's just reasonable IMO.

Minox is a pretty well known name outside of the USA, they just don't have the marketing budget.

The ZV3 is covered by the same lifetime warranty as the ZA5 HD and the German-made ZE scopes.

And yes, the turrets are your standard hunting turrets. They are low profile and capped.
