Any info on Intensity Optics.Are they made in Asia and compare to the cheaper makes like Barska.One of the local yocals was bragging about his $90.00 6-20x44 was better than the Leupold VXIII.

This was ATK's line of scopes when they did not have Weaver. Not sure if they are going to keep Intensity or not. We are tying to find out and place an order. All of the Intensity products are old Simmons SKUs (44-Mag and Aetec). At one time ATK owned Simmons so they learned what was made where and used that knowledge to source their own brand.

I'd guess the guy was being less than completely honest with you. I think Leupold is overpriced for what you get, but not THAT overpriced. |

I just got one today,6.5x20.The optics seem very good for the price-which was 89.00 on closeout.It seems a lot like the mueller apv optic wise.I haven't gotten to shoot it,but the target turrets,ao,fast focus eyepiece are all very smooth.
