Hi All,
Has anyone heard anything about the next production run?
Lets see who's been waiting the longest.
I signed up at some point in 2001.

You will most likely receive your scope in 2005 or 2006. Hang-in there! :-)

One thing about the wait list is to remember to let them know when you move or get a new email address. I signed up in 1999 and both my physical and internet addresses have changed since then, and I only remembered to let them know a couple months ago. It's possible my turn came up and I missed it.

Hi All,
A year later and still waiting patiently. Still saving up too! Looks like the new 155 is a 160, will the new 130 be a 140? If anyone has any info please share it! Anyone receive a scope? Talk to us!

Best Regards,
Mike

Hmmm... Why even bother.

There are plenty of good scopes out there readily available and...

you'll have a chance to actually use them before your...
a) eyesight goes bad from old age
b) eligible for Social Security but it isn't around anymore so your broke and can't pay for it anyway
c) DEAD!

I'm sure they are very nice scopes but unless you know for sure that you have offspring interested in inheriting it...

Why bother?
