Skipping SHOT?

Hmmm maybe the rumors are correct...

I would think so.

I'm a little surprised because the rumors say that Nikon would only end the riflescopes and continue with the remainder of their sport optics; spotters, LRFs, binoculars, etc. Their booth last year was huge, replete with all that stuff.

This year, it sure looks like they are not at SHOT, with anything.

And it's a shame if its true. While not a Nikon user, it is always good to have more hunting / sport products out there.

I’m sad to see Weaver is doing the same as Nikon. I really liked their scopes made in Japan.

Yeah, I've started snagging some of their Rimfire made in Japan scopes. For the money they were great - about 85% of a Leupold at 50% of the price.

I ordered a Pro-Staff today for $74 delivered. Could be due to closing shop on scopes?

Thanks! I don't know what I'll put it on yet but that's just too cheap.
