They have been around for many years.  I have bought from them numerous times.  They are GTG.

I actually just ordered two of the scopes a few minutes ago.

I have a Bushnell Banner 1.5-4.5X on my PB which for me is perfect for 1-100 yards, the range I hunt.  Customer Service is outstanding.  I damaged the scope through my fault they said send it in and we'll try to repair it.  They called to say the lab could not fix it and they sent me a replacement no charge.  This got me thinking about buying a no questions asked lifetime warranty scope for my Gamo Gas Springer.  Talking with the customer service staff at Vortex they said yes their scope would withstand the springer force, but advised against its use on an AG as 'hunting" PB scope are typically set for paralax at 100 yards and do not offer an AO option.  PB scopes also typically do not have mil dot reticles. That being said under $50 for a lifetime warranty I don't see how you can go wrong.  For another $30 or so you could get a springer rated AG scope with mil dots and adjustable objective....ymmv

They are not springer rated.

Got it, thanks for the heads up.

Seems like the Banners of old were the defacto choice for springers. I see the old gloss finish, made in Korea models, all the time on vintage guns.

With the Bushnell Warranty it just might be perfect for the Gamo IGT springer.  Thanks

I received a Bushnell Banner 4-12x40 AO scope last December, as a Christmas present.
Right away, I mounted it on the 22cal Crosman Diamond Back breakbarrel rifle.
So far, It is holding up well to the recoil of that gun.



Best Wishes - Tom

Good deal for a respected name in optics.  I’d be all over it if the reticle had some kind of stadia markings.  It will be good when simplex and duplex reticles go the way of the black and white television.

Both of mine were delivered Saturday!  They look great. I'm going to mount one on a 1st gen Gauntlet that's once again scopeless and try it out this week.

Says item no longer available now.  That was a great deal.  Back in the day the Bushnell Banner 4-12x was the go to springer scope.  I still have a couple that have been on springers since day one with no issues.  I assume they are built the same.  I always thought they were a great scope for the money.  They don’t get talked about much anymore due to side focus and mildot reticles but are good scopes.

I saw it got posted on Slickdeals.com which meant alot of them were probably bought up for re-sale unfortunately.
