I'd say stick to the more better known brands, especially the ones with a NZ presence, unless you are looking for something in particular.
I'd happily by an Element or Arken scope in NZ, but would be a little more nervous with Riton, Swampfox, Blackhound etc, especially if you are importing one.

Country of origin isn't as important today and there are scome really good scopes coming out of the Philippines and China, and you can get a turd from Japan.

Alot of the atacrs are made in the states.
Yes LOW optics do make a lot of nf products but under stringent Qc which you pay for.
