    Got one, and it got a lot of use after Christmas. Its nice, I prefer it to my Primary Arms unit that is similar in spec but 6x magnification. The reticle / clarity of the lenses / and positive turret clicks are the main items I like.

    I went to the Falcon Optics website and couldn't find anything regarding their warranty. What is their warranty in Canada and how are warranty issues handled? Is there a maximum caliber these scopes are rated/tested to?
    It's not denial. I'm just very selective about the reality I accept.

    They state a Global warranty which mean zero. Best to check with local stockist. e.g. Frontier Firearms.

    The Store handles replacement/repair for 10 years (replace or repair) after 10 years replacement or repair is done through Falcon Optics in the UK.

    It’s says that they are tested with a 338LM, so pretty well everything most people use except the .50 cal.

    I purchased a falcon scope. Ended up damaging a part of it just a knob. they wouldnt touch it in uk fyi. Def wont ever deal with falcon again. Better to stay in continent. I even offered to pay for repairs but they were not interested.

    Contacting Falcon Optics in the UK was an absolute waste of time. They refused to help.
    The dealers from whom I had purchased my scopes (two, and both failed) had dropped the line, and could not help.
