I was wondering what is the prevailing opinion on Pentax scopes. I have never owned one myself, but haveused a couple of guns that had the 30mm Lightseeker model on them. I really liked them myself, but never see any mention of them on any of the forums.

Edit - I meant to post this in the rifle scope forum, been too long of a day.

 Own several Pentax optics.Love their glass.Have had no problems from their scopes.Their dead on all the time.(I'm pretty rough on equipment,hunt from a 4 wheeler and tree stands)

  Also use their 10x42 HR Bino's. Have had to send these to be fixed twice in 3 years.Still love them,best bino,s I own.Did a side by side comparision at dusk against Steiner when I bought them 3 yrs.ago.Worked for my old eyes.

 My other scopes are Zeiss Conquests ,Diavari,Burris Black Diamond,Leopolds.

  

Our local dealers say they have a high number returned for warranty work.

Pentax scopes have been discussed a number of times.  Basically, they are relabeled Burris scopes (which is a good thing as far as I am concerned).  For more information do a forum search, but here are a few links of past discussions on this:
