"... As the production period begins, Vortex® will leverage a talented collective of American aerospace machine shops and American lens manufacturers to supply components to be assembled entirely at Vortex® Headquarters in Barneveld, Wis. ..."What happened to buy American? I thought vortex was all made overseas?
I couldn't find anything on this but it can function as a standard 1-8 LPVO without batteries.Is it EMP proof?
Just curious if it has a ballistic computer could it be EMP resistant? That would suck if one EMP bomb wiped out the military sights on our guns.I couldn't find anything on this but it can function as a standard 1-8 LPVO without batteries.
The EMP risk assessment made by US a while back showed that things with something that would function like an antenna attached were the most vulnerable, like power transmission lines or an antenna. This makes the power grid and communication systems the most vulnerable. Most cars wouldn't even stop running, and those that did fired right back up.Just curious if it has a ballistic computer could it be EMP resistant?

A few of their high end offerings are made in the U.S. and have Japanese glass (Japan and Germany make the best optics glass).What happened to buy American? I thought vortex was all made overseas?
Austria would like a word with you.(Japan and Germany make the best optics glass).
I guess I don't even bother considering Swarovski or Kahles since I'd have to sell a few organs to acquire that glass!Austria would like a word with you.
But is Leica and Steiner any cheaper?I guess I don't even bother considering Swarovski since I'd have to sell a few organs to acquire that glass!
Steiner can be had for much less, specifically the P4Xi around $600. Meopta also uses Schott glass on many offerings and their optics are reasonably priced.But is Leica and Steiner any cheaper?
And Zeiss, forgot about them. I have the conquest scope that I picked up on clearance for like $400.Steiner can be had for much less, specifically the P4Xi around $600. Meopta also uses Schott glass on many offerings and their optics are reasonably priced.
