I suppose I should give an update. I bought a scope from Optics Planet since the time of my original post. It came quick and as expected. They were very much on top of things.
Glad you chose to buy from them. They are great to deal with! I have made many purchases through them and would give them a hundred star rating if there was such a thing.
The only problem I have with them is that they're here in Illinois so I have to pay sales tax! Darn! They're fantastic and they're the kind of company you wish all internet sales companies were like!
I ordered a duty holster from them and it was backordered. They took the charge automatically off my credit card. A week and a half later the holster was in and I received an email that I was easily able to click on to re-order the holster. It was at my door two days later.
