Q&A for Minox ZP5 5-25x56mm THLR scope

[ekupp]

Per Blaser US they are having an internal meeting this week to discuss how to better handle Minox support and expedite the service.

I was able to finally reach someone at Blaser US by dialing different extensions. German Minox support via email is ok just has a time zone and translation gap but generally very responsive and helpful. Germany set expectations on cost and long delivery time (14-15 weeks) due to EU import/export regulations for "tactical" scopes.

I like Europtic. They have been good to buy from. One rifle order got a little messed up but no biggie.

When I buy a new machine, truck, or even a consumer product such as a chainsaw, tool, weed whacker, cordless drill...and it F's up, I send it to the dealer and they handle it. If they have a new one sitting there, I get it. If it has to go through a warranty repair, they take care of it. I don't have to send it back to who ever built it. This whole thing of buying it in one place and sending it to the manufacturer is baffling to me. I had to do it with a Leica product and it was stupid. The dealer did step in but I sure didn't send it there to start with. I guess that's the way it is with toys.
