    A couple of Hawke-scopes are apparently made in Japan, and are 'ok'..Endurance is one, I think, maybe. (best check) Rest are Chinese. I dont know of any Chinese scope that has metal pivots (they all use O-rings ) and therefore POI can be a lucky-dip, combined with 'round' inner-tube,where elevation adjustment affects windage, and visa-versa, combined with crap-quality leaf-spring, whose job it is to return everything back to 'ground-zero, after the recoil and resultant shock-waves...and the 'Glass' in them, isnt glass, its flash plastic..surprising that any of them work really...and most Do..for a while..but you'll never no for sure...maybe the Tooth-Fairy telepathically makes me put money under my kids pillows......
