That 999 price point is ridiculous! It’s hard not to buy the latest and greatest but the difference in price is a big chunk of change!
it is and I was thinking after I posted that whatever gen KOWA had out of that scope in 2021, I actually tested it on the mountain in a head to head with a friends.

I had my Nikon ED50 with the 13-30 eyepiece and I chose the Nikon over the KOWA barely. Optically by a margin and by quite a bit by weight (the Nikon is scary light) If 2021 was the gen that's on sale, it's still a pretty good scope for the money.

anyone know for sure when the current gen was released?

Anyone have a YETI code? A bear got my wife’s glass French press camping this summer so going to get her a yeti one with a couple drawings the kids did engraved on it. Not seeing any sale except free engraving and free shipping, which of course actually means $15 shipping.

I’ve been waiting until now for new ski boots. Going to need to get drunk in order to hit the order button though with the $75 shipping charge. So sick of paying double for AK shipping so everywhere else gets it free! Makes me angry with the fire of a thousand suns! So if anyone has a connection with Level 9 or Evo, hook a homie up!
