It all started when jasonk started calling Hensoldts "Hennies" and I shake my more-than-half German head each time I see someone else ruin a nice German name.

Trying to even the score, I propose that the following cutesy names be used instead of their originals:

<span style="font-weight: bold">Schmidt und Bender </span>- Schmitty (but not "Shitty", since there are a lot of shitty scopes around and there might be some confusion)

<span style="font-weight: bold">USO </span>- Ouzo (or maybe "Johnnie Three")

<span style="font-weight: bold">Leupold and Stevens </span>- Louie (or Loopy, if you have to)

<span style="font-weight: bold">Premier Reticles </span>- Preemie

<span style="font-weight: bold">NightForce</span> - NightyNight

<span style="font-weight: bold">Bushnell</span> - Bushy

<span style="font-weight: bold">Trijicon</span> - Treegee (not the former Aussie singing group with a similar name)

<span style="font-weight: bold">Super Sniper </span>- Da Snooper or Da Chris-to

<span style="font-weight: bold">Burris</span> - Burrboy

<span style="font-weight: bold">Nikon </span>- Nikki (when purchased in quantity, a group of Nikons will be referred to as a Nikkiloadeon)

Finally, I propose we refer to all Hensoldts henceforth as "Jasons", to be pronounced "Yah-sohn-z". Ja voll?
 
Re: Enough with the cute scope names already!!

Could we then, refer to the subset of all scopes, since scopes are monocular optics, as opposed to binocular, as, "One Eyed Jacksons"?

I've always preferred "Super Chicken", because of the logo.
