Original owner, 49901 and 48865 (Arca Swiss Foot). Lenses are scratch free, H8735 serial on the ocular and H8804 serial on the objective.
Asking $2900 shipped in the lower 48. If you want to pay G&S then you pay fees.
LOL, dead wrong. You can absolutely pinch the tube on a scope, compressing the internals and reducing the scope's ability to return to zero/hold a group.
Nope, people keep them forever. Only reason I'm even considering selling these ELs is because I want to buy a set of NLs and the new EL Range and the wife would murder me otherwise.
I run a 1-8 and agree with you 100%. The advantage of a red dot is that it's significantly lighter, and it's a more forgiving presentation, but you can be extremely fast on a true 1x illuminated LPVO.
I've found that the fastest way to get a real response to a service inquiry is to send an email with:
-My Contact info (name, email, address, phone number)
-The model and serial number of the product
-A detailed description of the problem.

AR 1x RDS options are basically this:
1. Aimpoint T2
2. Aimpoint Comp M5
3. Trijicon MRO/Aimpoint Pro/EOTech*

The Aimpoint Comp M5 has a really refined dot, is a little bigger, and...
Where'd that come from?
Swaro still repairs stuff from the 1990s: https://repairservice.swarovskioptik.us/docs/default-source/default-document-library/sonawarranty.pdf?Status=Temp&sfvrsn=2
Looks like the warranty on accessories and electronics is 2-years, but glass is "limited lifetime"
The Z6 2.5-15x44 is offered in BRH (4.5 mils in the reticle), BT-Plex (4.6 mils in the turret, no marks for wind), and the BRH-i and BT-4Ai which are basically the same with an illuminated dot.
If "long distance" to you is ~700 yds, the scope will do fine for elevation, but only the BRH is...
First, a more powerful laser gives you more reliable readings under worse conditions. Heavy snow on the ground with bright sunlight creates light pollution which will affect returns. Snow/fog/rain can also hamper a reliable read at longer distance.
Beyond that, you're clearly only thinking of...
