Thread: Leica ER5 where to buy

Looking at these scopes to replace my old Conquest.
Where is the go to place in NZ to buy?
Im happy to import and pay the GST but I would prefer to buy local.
Looking at the 1.5-8x32.

picked one up from Serious Shooters recently who seem to keep the pencil fairly sharp, different model though

Have you had a good look through an ER5 Timmay?

The only reason I ask is that I looked at buying one of these as I have some other Leica optics (Ultravid binos) which are fantastic, but I was very disappointed in how heavy the reticle was and ended up buying a Zeiss scope instead.

Thanks @LOC, I have asked them for a price. @Sauer, good heads up, it's very easy to find good reticle subtensions for Zeiss, Leupold, Minox etc etc but I cant for the life of me find that info for Leica? No one will have these scopes on the shelf so if it comes to the crunch I will just go with a Kahles 2-7x36 as it will be a similar price and quality (and easily found subtensions)

will flick you the contact of the importer to ask them, i had a couple of queries they contacted Leica on with quick replies

How'd you get on with that? Seems like the 1.5-8 is discontinued now (boo)

Really? Eurooptic.com told me discont.

I found one place that would actually have a conversation with me about getting one in / buying one and that was because they had 4 or 5 coming (specific model and ret) but where hopeless around ETA, Each time we spoke they wanted me to place an order but... due 2 weeks... Due in 4 now... Due in 3 months... I bought a swaro instead.

Optics Trade and others also showing discontinued
They only showing one ER5 option now - very odd.
