I’ll still buy Husqvarna made in Sweden but not Canada and Meopta made in the eastern block.


I have a Meopro 6X scope and the glass is crazy good. I was disappointed to see them discontinue the Meopro scopes,

I think the Optika series was just an extension of the Meopro line---or at least it WAS for a time...I don't know about now. I have several Optika5s, and they are marked "Meopro." I never owned any of the older Meopro line so maybe the Optika series is not the same as the older ones, but I like these Optika5s just fine. I think they are every bit as nice optically as any VX-3 Leupold offered and maybe better. The adjustments work pretty well, too.
