I’ve wondered for a long time why they never train or hire someone who can write advertising in vernacular English. But… it is entertaining.

Wonder how they certify resistance to earthquakes?

But the real question is: Are earthquake resistant scopes approved for use with springers?

I don't live in an earthquake area, but I wonder if they make scopes that are hurricane proof?

I wouldn't worry about them being earthquake resistant if they can pass the USPS, FedEx and UPS test.
