I was at the range on Sunday when one of the shooters asked me if I could help him focus his scope. Well I looked through it and had this milky vision. Then I looked at the brand, it was a BSA scope. I did not bother any further and suggested that he replaces it with something better. It was clear when he started and but only lasted about 5 or 6 shots!
 
Luckily he came to the range before his planned hunt!

I threw one away at the range a while back and figured I was better off with open sights.

I understand that some people neither want nor need a $1,000 optic; however, there are good reasons that "cheapest" and "best" aren't synonymous.

Freedom is something you take.
Respect is something you earn.
Equality is something you whine about not being given.

Time to upgrade to a Tasco.
