Does anyone have experience with the 5 inch ad 6 inch refractors sold by AstroZap? There's really no other info on their website than photos and basic specs. I assume they are Chinese made? However, they don't really look like Meade or Antares.

I have one of the 6" f/8, and this particular scope has the best optics (and coatings) of any of the previous three 6" achros I've owned.
