[QUOTE="Dr. Tad Hussein Winslow, post: 730771, member: 7123"] Yep, but there's the wait, and there's the "not helping the local community" thing. I believe that's where you went 100% incorrect. They're losing a small mint just due to ignorance & inertia, and the first one to figure it out is gonna make some money on this. I promise you, those turn-ins aren't selling; they're gathering dust, but people ARE putting scopes on rifles, the [U]vast majority of which [/U](on new rifles) are using a P-rail type base. Many are going with the Angle-Locs, the bane of accurate shooting, and other cheapie brands, where many are like me, ordering off the internet. Still others are using Weavers and though accurate, are uglifying our hunting fields and gun ranges as we speak! You can't put an ugly old Weaver ring set on a drop dead beautiful T/C Icon. If it's not illegal, it should be. They really deserve Conetrol, but short of that, at least good Leupold, Warne, Burris Signature, Talley, etc. Their demise had nothing to do with that; the good rings sold very well, it appeared. No cause & effect there at all. [/QUOTE]
