Centerpoint 3-9 x 40 AO Ilum. Ret. Scope
« on: September 18, 2007, 03:53:14 AM »
on Amazon.com for $38 and change. They also got one in non-iluminated. They also give you $30 discount if you open an Amazon Visa account. Total price incl. shipping - $8.54 !!!

I just hope it holds up on my new (used) B30

Edit: I believe Centerpoint is a renamed Leapers or Accushot

"Center Point" scopes are linked off their web sight, and my Quest 800X came with a Center Point.

But who's kidding who? Does anybody believe that there aren't about 10 different brand names slapped on scopes coming out of the same Chinese factories?

The centerpoint name is owned by Crosman. They are the same leapers, centerpoint and others. As to holing up it may do so. I have the same in a Leapers on my Webley and seems to be doing ok. I need to take it out and shoot it this weekend to verify my zero is holding.

It hit me after hitting the order button that I should have ordered more than one

After reading Stephanies post I went to Amazon and ordered the same 3x9x40 AO mildot except I opened up the Amazon credit card deal and took the $30.00 credit along with the free shipping...... Scope wound up costing a grand total of $4.78    

Of course now I have to buy an new rifle to put the scope on, but that's ok  !!!   :)

I couldn't resist the price and ordered one of the 3-9 x 50 AO illum. scopes too. $44.14 and I signed up for the free one month trial of Amazon Prime and got free 2nd day shipping on it. This was just too good a price on a very decent quality scope to pass up.

I also saw that 3-9 x 50 for $44 w/free shipping and jumped on it.  There were 4 left when I ordered on Sunday, and now there is only 1.

well, poo, scope is going back! Windage knob doesn't work properly. I like it though and give them a chance to replace it.
