I bought a Nikon Prostaff 5 3.5-14x40 SF BDC on 9/27/2017. I have the receipt and box. I mounted the scope on a rifle. I’ve shot probably 100 rounds through the rifle. Tonight while cleaning the rifle I notice a rubber seal is coming loose on the front lens. I wanted to hunt with this rifle come deer season. So I really want a refund or exchange. I don’t want to send it in to the factory for repair. That would take too long. Do you think Academy will exchange it or give a refund?
Thanks,
Marty

In my experience Academy has an excellent return policy and will replace almost anything. Only way to know for sure is to try.

If not they are a company Lots of companies won’t take back items that have factory warranties. That’s why they have warranties. That being said, I bet they will.

So.....? Did they? Yes, they did. They took it back, no questions asked other than what was wrong with it. I showed them, and they happily refunded my money. I then went to Cabela's and picked up a Vortex 4-16x50 HS LR.
Thanks,
Marty

One of the many reasons I shop at academy is their awesome return policy. I hate that so many folks abuse it because it may not always stay that way.
