    Check Cleavers Firearms website over here in Aus .
    I know a few guys who have bought Vortex scopes and Cleavers weren't that different from what you pay in the USA .
    I don't know how it works but I'd be happy to send a scope on to you and that would make it secondhand if that helps with duty etc .
    FALL IN LOVE WITH THE NUMBERS , NOT THE IDEA

    Havnt seen one for sale here yet. I paid $717NZ to get it to Oz. If it came to NZ direct slap another 15% on top. The shop that was going to get mine still hasnt heard when they will be in. I will have a look at what they sell them for once they get their shipment.

    Wohoo!!! Scope is at home waiting for me. $717 landed via Oz.

    Next question team, what tools do I need for 30mm Optilocks and where would one source them from?

    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
