Saw it yesterday can't really find a good link. But looks like they are no longer going to make rifle scopes. Production will end Jan 2nd. So what is in t the supply chain is all that will be sold. That sucks. But might snag a deal on one soon.

Wonder how they will handle warranty, thought a bunch of their stuff had lifetime.

Wondering this myself. I have one of those Black 1000 scopes that's never even been mounted.

The nikon prostaff for the money was a decent scope. Don't think I own any scopes currently. Doubt I buy any with this news.

I've got a couple prostaffs on small caliber guns now and they been good for the money...theys better scopes out there to compete with the higher end Nikon which is why I think they getting out...just what I think...

The original monarch 3 were good scopes I still have a couple 4in of eye relief and a very forgiving eye box on the 2.5-10x40 models. The higher magnification models had bad tunnel vision. Those are the only ones I cared for. Should be some deals to be had before long. Interested to know how they’ll handle warranty claims

They are decent scopes IMO. The top end Japanese stuff was solid. Like others, I was never a huge fan for some reason.

I feel the same way about vortex.
