Anybody on here ever here or see a scope called "ZOS" ,from China ?If you have ,I would like to here from you please.I bought one from E-bay ,and it is a "10-40 X 50 SFE " ZOS . Now,I have had NO problems with it yet and it came with a "LifeTime Warranty !!It seams to work fine and at about one mile or so ,cows look big enough to reach out and touch !! They were the only things I had out of my front window at a long way's away to see if it was any good ,at the time !! I would like to see if anybody else bought one also and to see if it's OK also . I paid $120 US + $39 US for shipping and $20 Canadian for duty & tax .Hope to here some from some of you on this scope.
 
I'm interested in how it handles recoil. I just took a gamble on a FITCO for the heck of it and wouldn't mind seeing a pic of yours to compare. I don't have mine yet but I believe the FITCO is chinese made. I couldn't resist the $40 for a scope. I have some good ones but I've always been curious about just how much we pay for brand recognition alone.
 
I had a Fitco "shorty" on my SKS ,and it worked fine and it took all the pounding from that gun all day long !! Now on my "ZOS" ,time will tell because I'm waiting on my 30mm rings to come in to mount it on my Rem.308 ,"700 action" with a 26'' bull barrel & laminate stock .
 
All those scopes are pretty much the same, ZOS, Fitco, Vector optics Etc....

I have a few Fitco, 2 Vector Optics, and to be honest they are hit and miss. I noticed on the higher magnification scopes that I was getting shifting in POI with parralaxe changes. Images were on all of them acceptable.

I have a Leupold 2,5-10 Tactical knock off that took a lot of beating and I shot to 600yds and it was repeatable all the time coming back to zero.

I had a few Fitco and Vector return on warranty because of manufacturing flaws, bad material or simply not working. But even tough I own top of the line optics I keep buying those cheap Chinese just to try them out.

Verdict is, don't be surprised if it is an amazing scope, but don't be surprise if it is a POS.
 
I am about to move so no money for a zos at full price from eBay. but that's the one I want. I love the flip up caps and sunshade. I like when the scope is almost if not longer then the rifle. I have had a wtb ad up for awhile without any luck. I want one at a used price.
