seeing how hard it is to get an swfa right now, i would say the market may be growing for such a scope? i wonder if the major optics companies are paying attention to that?There are at least two different manufacturers that make the SS line of scopes, depending on model. As for why someone can’t get the manufacturer to copy/make them for someone else... we’ll they could match them. But no major company believes that simple, ruggedly reliable scopes will sell.
