    The Chinese are very good manufacturers ..... You only have to look at anything, actually everything manufactured in the world today and the chances are it was sourced from China or built on machines sourced from China.

    Truth be known .... those "chinks" as you say are probally making the Leupolds, assembling them, and shipping them for Leupold.

    Interesting too that Leupold doesn't own it's copyright in China..... someone else does.

    Cheers

    You are not to far from the truth there. Most customers would be surprised to know the Chinese content of American and Japanese made goods.

    When I put the factory VZ nose & bonnet on my 05 Monaro in 06, I was really impressed to see "made in China" on the factory hi intensity fog lights

    That front cost a fair bit & was "restricted parts" in those days...
