Other than the Leupold Gold Ring binos, which I understand are "assembled" in America, are there any other binoculars made or assembled in the USA? Maybe something like the Zeiss Conquest scope situation, where the parts are imported, but final assembly is done here?

I believe they are assembled in the Zeiss plant in Hungary. |

I got an email back with some info. Most are made and assembled in Japan with a few being done here but no firm details on which ones. |
