So I was at bass pro in LV and overheard a group of people talking about which scope to buy for their air rifle. Idk which scope they decided on but when they asked the worker behind the counter to look at it, the worker said he doesn't recommended any of the scopes in the display case to be put on an air rifle. The group of people looked confused, I was confused I even asked why not? He simply said that the recoil from an air gun will damage the scope(because it recoils differently from a real gun). I told him: That's crazy! and walked away.
Idk if the dude was racist or what, but he pretty much refused to sell the scope to them(group of asians) I mean he didn't say no, but you could tell he didn't want to sell them the scope.
Anyhow, is it true about the recoil damaging the scope? I think its BS.
