Sorry for supporting my facts with evidence. If you search for "Dark Ops holdings" or any part of that name, nothing comes up. Neither does anything surface for Counter Sniper. Well, you will get results for the search "counter sniper" but every result deals with a system from Shumar Industries.
The reason your scope was stuck on 4 power is because they all are pieces of garbage. I would assume that "very very few" come back to them. Who the hell would want to put themselves through the agony of crap optics twice? Oh yeah...
Ask him to tell you the government contract number. If they are out in the numbers he implies, there will be one. We don't just open purchase tons of scopes. Sure, SPECWAR/OPS gets what they want, but let's be honest they aren't using counter sniper. We have a couple members that can verify that here and now.
