Swift Rifle Scopes, Anyone!

I bought a swift 3x9 about 10 years a go and put it on my Ruger 77 30/06 and haven't had a problem with it. I bought it from a local gun store that went out of business and I haven't seen anyone else carry them. Anyone out there use them? Good or bad. I must say that it has been in the rain, mud, snow, 100degree days with out a problem. It is very clear and pulls in lots of light. I was thinking about getting another but wanted to hear if anyone else uses them. Thanks.

I have one. Also a 3-9x40.

Meh. It's on my Marlin .22 now.

Doesn't hold a candle to the clarity of even my pipsqueak 4x33 Leupold fixed power.

swift scope

i've had a couple, both in 3-9x; both were ok, but just not up to par with any Leupold i've had. The one i kept is on a .22, and serves me well in that position.
