[QUOTE="mildot1960, post: 1425217, member: 63671"] The Mk 4's are made in China and they are way better than most, just because they are made in China does not mean they are substandard, At the time of their release they cost around 6-700$ +, The Mk 4's made in China and have actually better glass and build quality than most brands and they are even than the made in Japan Tactical BX-2's, But the BX-4's are even better again (made In Japan), I don't buy in to the Anti China prejudice BS, because every country makes good and bad gear and Leupold kept their hands on the pulse when it came to the Mk 4's, They are very worthy of the Leupold Name, Even the Molle Case/Bag that come with the MK 4's is the best Optic case I have ever seen yet the later BX-2 bag is a pig and totally unbalanced and flips upside down all the time if you use the neck strap yet it says Made in the U.S.A. on the front. Leica Geovids are a prime example with "O"ring failures and fogging up not to mention getting them fixed under warranty is a real hasstle where some on here have been quoted over 800 bucks for Leica to repair them. And at $3000.00 a pop they should come with a Life time Warranty. Like the Leupold Mk 4's do. It does not matter where anything is made as long as it is done right and the best of gear is used then that is all that counts. Also the top 4 Camera Brands use Glass from Japan and S.E Asia and have done for decades. [/QUOTE]
