Hello all, this is my first post and I hope I'm in the correct section. My question to all is this: I'm looking to purchase the bushnell elite tactical 3.5-21x50 ( it was between that and the SS 5-20x50 HD) and I was wondering who to order it from. SWFA or Liberty Optics? SWFA does have a 110% price match so price is close to the same but I was just wondering who has better CS and who's just plain easier to deal with. This is going to be the most money I have ever spent on optics and I'm just a little worried. ( in case i have to send it back for repair or for some other reason) I am happy to read that Bushnell has a bulletproof warranty for the elite scopes so if am not happy with the scope for any reason within 1 year I can return it for a full refund. Any experiences with either or both companies would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
 
Re: Which vendor to choose?

Leupold has a lifetime warranty on their scopes. If you are truly worried about repairs down the road and service, you may want to re-think your manufacturer.

Most internet wholesalers/shops arent going to give you any extra warranty choices.
 
Re: Which vendor to choose?

Either one of those retailers is GTG in my opinion.

As for MFG of optic, I have only dealt with USO and Leupold's CS department. Both were top notch and made me very happy.

However, I own 3 "cheaper" Bushnell's and they have never had to go back for warranty.

What does all this tell you? Nothing, good luck man.
