The British dailies are a never ending source of fun for me. I have never believed newspaper can actually spend so much time printing utter nonsense. | |||

I hope Nikon remains unavailable for comment. Whatever they might say it will piss off someone. _________________________________ AR, where the hopeless, hysterical hypochondriacs of history become the nattering nabobs of negativisim. | |||

Is that some ridiculous crap or what? About Nikon being unavailable for comment, sometimes it's just best to let idiots carry on without response. A lesson I'm learning here on AR again this past week!  | |||

Oddly enough, that scope is listed as "discontinued by manufacturer" on Midway's website as well as a few others. Nikon's website still shows a 1-4x20mm scope, but the Cape Buffalo has been removed from the turret and replaced with their usual Monarch Stag logo. It is also just called the Monarch 3 German #4. It references safaris in the advertisement, but not the actual scope. Wonder if some bad publicity is what changed it. ____________________________ If you died tomorrow, what would you have done today ... 2018 Zimbabwe - Tuskless w/ Nengasha Safaris 2011 Mozambique - Buffalo w/ Mashambanzou Safaris | |||

Oh my....this must be bad news for Carl Zeiss and Swaroski among others. (As I presume these greenies also use top line binoculars looking at the wildlife ?) What if they discove that they also make exellent rifle scopes as well  Arild Iversen. | |||

What if these fools also suddenly discover that a vast majority of the Nikon binos being used today are also being used to spot and hunt animals?!  Oh what humanity!!! | |||

Anyone here have one of these scopes they want to sell? I need one for my 9.3X74R Merkel double rifle. I bought one of the 30mm Weaver Illuminated scopes but that thing weighs a ton, and the Nikon weighs 16.9 OZ, better suited for use on a double rifle. I can still use the Weaver on my Ruger No1 45-70 for use in a blind over bait for black bear. In that case the extra weight is a plus with my hot handloads. ...................................................................  ....Mac >>>===(x)===> MacD37, ...and DUGABOY1 DRSS Charter member "If I die today, I've had a life well spent, for I've been to see the Elephant, and smelled the smoke of Africa!"~ME 1982 Hands of Old Elmer Keith | |||
