Does anybody know anything about them or had any experience with them?
 
Seems like a decent price without being junk but I really can't tell.

The Intensity 2,8-10X44 looks quite similar to the SIMMONS Aetec Master 2,8-10X44. Same data, aspherical lenses.............

Both Intensity Optics and Nitrex Optics are run by the guys at ATK who used to be involved with Weaver and Simmons before those brands were sold to Meade.  I talked to them (mostly to Nitrex) over at SHOT and I thought they knew what they were doing.  Nitrex scopes are made by Light Optic Works in Japan.  Intensity Optics scopes ar emade either in Phillipines or in China, I can't quite remember.

I suspect that the 2.8-10x44 is just a remake of the old Aetec which was a very decent scope for the money (and better than Meade's version of the Aetec).
