Yes ... I see yours fell apart ... sorry sir.
 
But what about the optical quality ?   Because if I got one, it would be going on a completely recoilless rifle.
 
Thanks

Yup ... I have owned and enjoyed V16s in the past.  Probably not a better scope at the $300 price point !

Ok ok .... My curosity is now quenched.  LOL
 
I asked about Simmons, because I can remember when Simmons had the Aetec and Whitetail Classic scopes that were made in the Phillipenes ... I thought those scopes were pretty good over achievers for the money !

I have a couple of the older Simmons Whitetail Expeditions (not Witetail Classic)and I love them.  Been using them for quite a few years now.  Not much difference in clarity between it and the Conquest.   I think they tried to get into the higher end scope buisness but folks would'nt bite due to the Simmons name.  They've change owners so often I can't tell you who owns them today.
