"Not really IMO, it was the same then, a mental midget playing "I know you are but what am I." Thinking he is making cohernt points. What can you do, stupids gonna stupid.
Now that Sir Phillip has been given a permanent vacation...Only Valdabla fan boy.

"stupids gonna stupid" ?
Wow I don't even know what to say about that.
As far as Frank goes or anyone else for that matter I'm absolutely not afraid to have an intelligent discussion with them as long as he sticks to the subject and brings something to the table besides he said she said stuff .
Now I did say at the beginning of this thread that I actually talked to Val on the phone. And I did say that he seemed like a nice guy and was concerned about me getting the correct scope for what I was trying to accomplish. But that's all I ever said about Val. Everything else I said was about the scope I was interested in. Just read back on this post and you will find not many people actually answered any questions all they did was misdirect. There wasn't many valid counter arguments in this entire thread. In fact there was a couple of jackalopes on here trying to Pawn off a review on a completely different scope. This thread was never about a guy's character it was about an optic and that's all. You guys have a unnatural dislike for the guy that makes them. I personally don't really care who makes them. I don't care about the warranty they have. I don't care about the customer service. Because I never plan on buying one. I'm just saying the scope that I tried out performed exactly as it should have that's all.
Now if I was purchasing this scope I would care about all those things and they would be valid arguments against buying this optic.
Ok it's time for you guys chime in with informed and intelligent comments like "you'd like that girth," "Val boy," or the ever-popular "go suck Val's dick". So bring it on I don't care I'm on duty this weekend and all I have is time.
You actually counted how many post there were? Do you know how that sounds? Have you examined any of the post? How many of the gentleman on this post started a conversation by calling me names?594 posts on a complete waste of Time thread ? And, it started with you essentially wanting opinions on, or wanting to buy a scope ?
This is still going ? Have you made a decision ? Almost 600 posts and you’ve degenerated to the point where all you are doing is insulting people ? 600 posts ? What the hell is wrong with you ? Seriously.
First of all, you are so obstinate that you completey miss the point. Again.You actually counted how many post there were? Do you know how that sounds? Have you examined any of the post? How many of the gentleman on this post started a conversation by calling me names?
So again I'm going to ask one question it's a simple one.
What was your personal experience with a G2?

Yes, in that context, I agree with you.But in the same tone if there was a bunch of reviews on a product written by people that didn't even see the product I don't think I could take those too seriously. Could you?
This thread had so much misinformation I felt I should join and straiten a few things out. I would like to be up front here and say I have no affiliation with any of the companies. I have however for used IOR scopes over the years and whilst I do not own a Valdada G2 I have looked through them and had a quick play with them.
Probably the best place to start is with IOR. There appears to be some confusion as to who they are. IOR is a very well established Romanian optics manufacturer. They make everything from microscopes to industrial optic systems. One of the biggest confusion is the relationship between IOR and Valdada, so lets set this strait. Valdada is a completely separate company run by completely different people. Valdada just happen to import products made buy IOR to the US. I am a bit confused to see the hate for IOR scopes here as in Europe they are very highly regarded and are regularly used in high end competitive shooting. They are generally considered to be optically superb and very robust scopes. I kind of assumed that was the general view in the US as well from reading reviews like this
The Valdada G2 Recon has absolutely no connection with IOR or the similarly named Recon and Recon Mk2 aka Gen 2 scopes from IOR. The Valdada G2 Recon is actually made by Light Optics Works in Japan. They are a OEM manufacturers that makes most of the high end Japanese made scopes from many of the big brands like NightForce, Vortex and such like. Light Optics Works are world renowned for making extremely good scopes. They are renowned for both mechanical accuracy as well as durability. I would have no reason to believe the G2 Recon would be any more or less reliable and accurate than any other top end scope coming from Light Optics Works. Whilst the Japanese glass is extremely good it does tend to lag a little behind the very best from Europe. The Japanese glass tends to look a little washed out compared to the European glass. So what Valdada did was get Light Optic Works to put a substantial amount of high end German made Schott glass in the mid section of there scope that gives a noticeable improvement in image quality. It's certainty the best I have seen from a scope from Light Optics Works and is right up there mixing it with many of the very best European scopes. What Valdada also did was spec a large 40mm main tube that gives substantially greater adjustment and retains image clarity over a wider range of adjustment. So it's certainty understandable why it costs more than other scopes coming from Light Optic Works. As for if you think it's worth it or not that's a personal thing.
I would also like to address the image that ajv53XX of the IOR scope that tested 94% on a tracking test. The image is actually not a Recon at all but of a much older design scope that is older than this review it's actually part of there cheaper classic hunting range and not the tactical or target range, but even so they still normally get good reviews.
I loved the RENOWNED for their mechanical accuracy, if that is not a laugh-out-loud statement I don't what is ...
garbage
they are pieces of shit and nobody on here cares about your propaganda, removing your links to other websites
there are different spec's just because a scope comes from LOW doesn't make it up to par with the others
Are you sniffing the bottle? Man, look at them eyes!Here I am, the one time i considered looking at any IOR,

Sure I was thinking about shooting it, but hey, that is what we do, shoot shit, These are the perfect shooting scopes
It sure looks like the cap has been removed..........Are you sniffing the bottle? Man, look at them eyes!
