any input on Brunton Optics

Has anyone had any dealings with Brunton optics? Not sure of their quality? Natchez has a good sale going on for some of their scopes, just wondering?

I have no experience with their spotting scopes.

I do have some experience with their binoculars.

Mine are an older series,however.

I have a pair of Eterna 10 x 25 and a pair of Eterna 10x50

They are prized pieces of very good equiptment.

They have changed the lineup,and I do not know the Eterna today.The Epoch ,I have read test reports on,it is regarded as world class,among the best.

They also offer some very low cost binos,I can't say anything about.

They are based in Wyoming,and the one time I needed customer service,they treated me very well.

Again, no experience with their scopes, but I have one of their compasses and you'd have a hard time paying me to carry any other brand.

Midway doesn't carry their scopes anymore, but there was a similar thread last year. sholling commented that the user reviews were pretty mediocre.
