nikon did me right

[Lloyd Smale]

bought a 3x9 buckmaster refirb earlier this year for my 6 mm rem classic. Was farting around with it a while back and dropped it and bent the tube. Boxed it up and sent it to Nikon without and pre authorization and wrote them a note saying that this was totally my fault for dropping it. Got a brand new 2.5x10 prostaff 5 in the mail yesterday. Compared it side by side with a buckmaster in the daytime and in low light and this prostaff is a much better scope optically then the bushmaster which were much better then the original prostaffs. Shows good on them to replace a damaged refirb with a brand new scope that's even higher quality. Granted they don't have a scope any cheaper then a prostaff but id guess they still have some old scopes laying around somewhere they could have sent.

Makes me want to break my Buckmaster. You definitely came out on top of that one.

i like nikon, the only made in china product i will actively seek out when i need that 'balance' of quality and cost.

You must live a charmed life. I had a defective Nikon Prostaff and sent to them for repair. They lost it and that was the end of the situation as far as they were concerned. I had a cs guy call me a couple times with questions about it, and it all just faded away eventually.
That was my last Nikon....ever....

Nikon has always done right by me. I have even bought defective used binos...and binos do not come with a transferable lifetime warranty like the rifle scopes...and they have fixed them at no charge.
