Sad day for Nikon Scopes...

[Prophet River]

We have been selling a lot since we posted this. Still a great selection but some models now sold out or selling out quickly.

I was considering a pro staff for one of my 22's... Not so sure now untill I know what the warranty process will be.

Who cares what the warranty is like, they are fine products that rarely need warranty work from what I've heard. I'll be getting a prostaff rimfire scope on boxing week if they're still available.

Hard to know what we be left. Guys are all over the place with these. Some guys are upset and don't want a Nikon now, others are waiting for a 'deal' but most are buying now it seems before they are all gone. At least judging by the numbers we have sold since we posted this.

If the price is right, I might be interested in a shotgun slug scope for an eventual project down the line.

Wow. I feel lucky to have picked up a Nikon Prostaff last week.

So far it has performed great.

Agreed. I suspect their riflescopes were profitable, but they were looking at a lot of investment to continue to be competitive in an an increasingly crowded field and decided to pull the pin.

How so? Nikon doesn't make riflescopes nor are they made in Japan. Nikon, like many other brands these days, rebrands scopes from various OEM manufacturers in the Philippines, so not a lot of investment required on their end.

Must be a lot of fans, we shipped a lot of Nikons today. Sad to see the end ....

If this is true, who actually makes the Nikon branded scope? I knew they were made in the Philippines, but by who? Which OEM company?

If we can find out who, they should be available under a different name.
