[QUOTE="SidecarFlip, post: 900879, member: 39764"] I would hope not. Candidly, I own a Japanese made Burris (with LOE Glass) and it's a long eye relief pistol scope mounted on a really heavy recoiling 44 magnum Smith and it performs flawlessly and has for years. Clear and without abberations and it was cheap too. Not to hijack the thread but I'm very impressed with the Weaver Kaspa Series (stupid name). Every review I read says good things about them and they are Weaver cheap. They may not be perfect at shooting the box but the side parallelax is real cose to spot on and they are repeatable and I would imagine of Chinese orign and I would surmise that these Burris scopes are as well. That also applies to the cheaper Vortex line (Chinese). Nothing in the Vortex line is made here anyway. The best you'll get is the Razor/Viper PST and it's assembled in the Phillipenes from components sourced from who knows where. Speaking from what I can ascertain only, IMO, the only domestic assembled optics are the higher end Leupold and Strevens VX3's and above and the Trigicon. Trigicon is just north of me off Wixom road and Leupolds are assembled and have intrinsic machining done in Beaverton. Oregon, both expensive and probably over rated as well. I have no idea where Huskemaw is sourced from but I suspect it's offshore as well, components wise. World Class manufacturing is interesting to say the least. It actually suprises me today when I buy something and it says (on it) Made in America. [/QUOTE]
