    I have a pair and so does Barefoot Mucko.

    I am told that there are other brands that are better but I can't see the difference. I am told that they appear green toward the outer edge of the glass but I don't see it. They measure the same distance as other so called better makes and models also you may be picking by now that I reckon they a just fucking fine for an average Joe like me.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    No. Haven't seen a message. Where, when, how did you send it?

    I looked through Rushys and a pair of Leicas side by side and couldn't notice any difference optically, however the Bushnell ranged a hell of a lot better and easier than the Leica.

    If it was me I wouldn't dream of paying more than the Bushnell.
