I've been prying for info on that one for months..... unfortunately I highly doubt we will hear much from any new scopes very far ahead of time after the 1-6's unexpected delays.

Not to mention all the WHINER'S... Chris, I promise I won't beg for a group buy!
If it is tourist season, why can't we shoot them?

How many EXPECTED delays do we normally have after the announcement of a new product???

Especially since the country of origin was only hit by one tsunami, and a couple of earthquakes, don't they see I WANT MY SCOPE!

Expected delays can be like customs issues and such.

All marketing aside, I wonder if we could see a scope in the $500 range variable mid power.

I'd pay more than $500 for a mid-variable with side focus and lit reticle. Hoping for something a little lighter than the 5-20 monster. :)

Yeah, I'd wait until I had a 100 or so ready to ship.
