    Best retailer / source for Element Optics scope?

    Had a look at Element direct, though out of stock for the model I was after, Titan 5-25 in the cleaner MoA reticle.
    Was there an Element Optics agent on here?

    Not giving my money to GC - let's be clear.

    Cheers

    https://opticsnz.shop/ is really good to deal with. Super easy and does a lot in the shooting community.

    Pretty sure they’re the dealer for the country. Outdoor Outfitters, which is gun city essentially. Either way, they’re getting your money.

    Used to be imported by fella in Oxford just outside of chch
    But think he lost agency to gc after getting it started and doing
    The hard work getting the name out there

    Similar bit of kit to what arken optics are
    Could try Ken @ nightvision nz to see if he has something comparable
    And you know where your $$ going then

    Thank you all for the suggestions - and the fact the GC is the importer - it is what it is.
    I'll look at Kens website again, and Alans OpticsNZ too.

    Levi, from chch, bought the business from Wayne in Oxford.
    I've bought 2 element last week through him..
    Great to deal with..

    Levi is the importer too. Not only GC..
    Gc pretty much bullied Wayne out of business.
    Now Levi took over.
    Support the smaller guys !

    If you google Element NZ should take you straight to his website.. Element NZ

    Haha fair enough, I just bought my first MIL scope last week, mainly because I do a few of the SPARC competitions and I have no idea what people are talking about with their wind/ elevation holds. But it’s been a bit of a mind fuck so far trying to use it lol.
