So, is Geissele producing the scope in house? We are told by an anonymous internal source that while they are designed by Geissele, the parts are sourced from and assembled by Light Optical Works in Japan. If you don't know about Light Optical, do some Googlin' and learn somethin'. If that is too much work, the cliff notes version is that Light Optical builds nearly every high-quality scope not produced in Europe.

I guess thats makes outsourcing to Light Optics Works as a good thing. It is way expensive than i would pay.

Been reading up on this scope and other LPVO's.

Seems one of the biggest complaints about the Geissele scope is its hefty 24oz weight.

At this point I think I'm leaning towards a CREDO.
