Swift model 658 matte 2x7
« on: September 02, 2006, 09:32:54 AM »
Just bought a Swift scope for 75 bucks for my k31. I have heard good and bad. Has any one experienced any failures from these reasonably priced optics.

Cheesrhead, I have several of the 2-7 premier swift scopes. I have experienced no problems with mine. Byron

Thanks Pastorp

What kind of rifles/calibers  in your collection are currently wearing the swift scopes.

I've got a bunch of Swift Premier scopes including the 2-7x40 658M mounted on my .35 Rem Handi, great scopes for the money with a lifetime replacement warranty regardless of who the owner is.  I also have a standard Swift which isn't as good, serviceable, but isn't clear edge to edge like the Premiers.
