Thread: Why I wouldn't buy Weaver or Nikon scopes...

Simple...They are both out of the scope business.

That means NO warranty, NO parts, and NO service centers.

Therefore if I was to buy a second-hand one it would be a gamble.
And with any gamble, you have to ask yourself: "Can I absorb the loss if my gamble doesn’t pay off?"

However, now that I have said all of the above...one's gamble is dependent on the entry price. For me, the lower the cost of the bet the more likely I am to throw the dice.

Therefore it would have to be one hell of a cheap deal for me to buy one of their scopes these days...no matter how good they once were (are).
