Most likely about the vortex as Jason's track record with vortex is sketchy. That being said the razor line is typically rock solid with only a handful of defective units just like all the other top tier glass guys.
How bout a Razor spotting scope?
The Heatstroke Open drove dust inside it. I sent it in.
The Hunters Rifle Challenge drove water inside it. I still need to send it in.
Don't get me started on their Gen I Viper. That scope gave me trouble, as well as two other people.
Gave them three chances. I'm done with them. There are plenty of other good options.
