May be a dead horse, Im very new here so I beg forgiveness if it is....
Springfield Government model scopes.
Unless you bought it new AND were not a young dummy like myself, and actually registered the warranty OR Saved the sales receipt....
They WILL NOT honor the warranty....no way...no how..tell you to go pound sand...no negotiations.
Oh...and they are also damned junk to boot. Overpriced, disposable, crap.
Not designed to be repaired. Put together in a one and done fashion...
I have one that went bad..wont hold zero..wont hit a barn now.
Called Springfield...see above comments.
Wont fix, wont replace, wont give credit....spent hours today searching internet for someone...ANYONE for even a remote chance of fixing this POS...no dice.
Called Ironsights...they tried at one point to repair them..but turned out to be an exercise in futility.
They are built in such a way...you have to destroy parts to get them apart..they have the parts to replace them...which is the problem. None to be had.
Lousy design...poor quality...but the price at the time didnt reflect this.
Its funny...you can get a Tasco, or a Simmons repaired (if one wanted to pay 100 times what they are worth, but can be done) but you cant get these supposed lower top end (for their day) scopes repaired.
Just the heads up.
Shame too...the love the internal level, even if it does take up space inside the scope. The tradeoff is worth it.
