there junk buy made in the usa that is what was said.don't buy import .
That has
not been said, at least by me. I did say that there is "nothing wrong with buy USA," but that's a far cry from dismissing everything else as junk / garbage / whatever. If you are referring to BPI, a 100% Spanish owned company or Traditions guns-- their triggers, warranty, and barrel quality have been universally sub-standard compared to Knight / Thompson, etc., etc. BPI / Traditions sells boxes, and do no testing on American soil. Their poor owner's manuals, adequate bluing, etc., all speak to the lack of attention. That said, it is anybody's choice to make.
With scopes, it is largely an import market-- almost exclusively so, in one form or another. Zeiss Conquests are assembled in the USA (Rochester, NY), Bushnell is an American company (World-Wide Sports Optics), and Leupold neither makes or grinds glass-- they just assemble tubes from sourced components from a variety of sources. The line between a Zeiss Conquest / Bushnell / Leupold from a company ownership and manufacturing point of view is far more subtle.
So, I don't know who you mean by "
they," but-- as this thread is concerning the Bushnell Elite 3200, it is as good a scope as can be had (IMO) for the money, and you are buying from an American company on top of that.
