^^I appreciate your status as a retailer and user of Leupold products in the past as you mentioned.

However, I did not ask for your past experience (frankly, I couldn't care less) but for the situation at present time. This is not a bashing thread but a request for information on scope repair/replacement as in my case it does not meet Korth's published timeline for service.

Thanks, RR

Wow what a douche comment. Between this and the comments on the LGBT AR magazine thread you have really demonstrated your character.

Purposely obtuse or just raised as an ass, I feel for Korth having to deal with him.

Just curious - Does that mean you cannot service scopes without your head-quarter's parts in the US? Like there is no part for you guys available in Canada.... and you don't inform customers?

RR

This is a tooling issue, not a parts issue. Customers that needed to be informed have been. We do appreciate your concern in this matter.

If people could buy a scope that works out of the box they wouldn't have to waste their time.... and go shooting too! lol

The reality with any manufactured product is the potential for post-production warranty work. Fortunately, the percentage of product requiring repair is very low for Leupold products.

Sorry I wasted your time at trying to give you general experiences and back ground with Korth Group as I thought this may be of benefit to you. Good luck with your repair. Phil.

We appreciate your input, Phil! Thanks for assisting.

RR, Are you deliberately trying to be dense?

Korth stated that a machine, built by Leupold and required to properly repair Leupold scopes, was down for repair or recolumization. It is due back this week.

So where do you get off talking about Korth can't repair because parts from Leupold are headquartered in the US. You think that someone in Canada makes Leupold scope parts? Get real. Besides Korth clearly pointed out that it was not a parts problem, but but broken equipment.

Relax.

There is not a scope manufacturer in the world that does not have scopes fail. I'm sure your turnaround time with Korth is still going to be less than if you had to send a Leica to Germany for repair.

I've had two scopes at Korth. The first I had the parallax set for a rimfire. Less than two weeks. One VX3 seemed to have a litgle bit of a wandering zero. I had dropped it off, it was repaired and mailed very quickly. They didn't charge postage. Great service. We're lucky to have them.

Thanks for the support!

My one and only dealing with Leupold/Korth was enough for me to switch brands. Sold most of it, still have the scope i put on the Rum. Under the category of not broken, why sell it.

The draw for years, was the warranty. When other manufacturers have as good, without axeholes, i buy those.

Never had any issues with Leupold/Korth. Had them re parallax scopes. Usually a week turn around. They even replaced a scope I totally destroyed on a quad. It was 100% my fault. Leupold gave me a brand new replacement scope.
