[QUOTE="Don A Parsons, post: 1237170, member: 97414"] Communication clarification of post above. My mistake in wording as I used the word cruel optics as a wize selection of word should of been archaic "in todays standers of scopes and optics we get to choose from now days. The sights of long ago were works of art and top notch of the day compared to buck horn sights, not down grading them either since they served their purpose in time. We here in Canada consider Bushnell optics cheap, this is comparing them to $1000 or $5000 dollar optics up here,,, Don't forget the exchange, duty, and shipping with gst tax on top of that. This would be $700 to $3800 in the USA. Not long ago folks would walk into a sporting goods store and walk out with a $2000 scope with no questions asked,,, today folks are scratching pennies over the $100 or $200 optics as that's alot of funds in todays work force. Different if todays pay structure was at par with products we buy... A $1000 dollar scope is pretty pricey, so now folks class the Bushnell scopes as frugal quality since they are costly up here too. Lots of folks have been picking up low end budget optics since they have other bills too pay and things on the go with funds with kids and all. Today's folks are wize senders as we/they need to be, so some folks will use words like cheep as those of us that are in budget too what we can afford class stuff as frugal quality, Ha. I'd like too buy a new collection of optics, but it ain't going to happen since I can manage with with I have. My 2 old user optics seen many a rifles over the 30 years when I had plenty of them, soon it will be 1 rifle for all my needs since the less is more program is under way in the house I build.
