I just find it very easy to goad Nighfoce owners. They're like BMW owners
You sound like me and the brainwashed Glock owners.
Scopes? I have a few but dont use them much, I've had cheap Glass that out performed very posh expensive glass in every way you can think of, I think I have been lucky.
In my honest opinion it is true, some are good, some are pure junk, you get what you pay for, and most often the only difference is the price.

OK now I can understand a bit better. Which model? Surprises me tbh!
One thing I have learned is that I think pretty much all scope makers offer awful service in the UK because of.our importers. E.g. GMK and Leupold - 6 week + wait because they were waiting to send it off to leupold Germany to save postage (they admitted as much). How pathetic!

I have found it is always better to circumnavigate uk importers , the level of service in this country is beyond shocking in most cases !

Agreed! Only did it once :-) but it still means that scope service = crap because the foreign companies aren't easy to deal with either.

i've always found that the foreign companys are very good to deal with if you deal direct , they usually try and get you to go through there uk agent but if you insist they are usually cool.
