I mounted my scope and after 5 shots this is what I saw. What happened
? And what can I do about it? That is not the camera angle, that is what it looks like inside my scope

That's kind of what I thought. I wonder if airgundepot can do a swap or if I have to go to umarex. I hear umarex is a pain.??

lol mine looks like that too. Not quite as bad. I wasn't sure if it started that way or just became that way as i shot. These scopes have the worst glass i've ever seen. A darned shame because the turret system is ROCK solid on mine. POI has not changed even a little bit since i hit my first bullseye. Terrible glass though.
Did some checking and it appears these scopes are made by ZOS, the supplier of the Chinese army's scope. Glad to hear it, bet they can't see a thing through them

Naw that just ain't right Brothers, my guess is one of the erector lense's has turn slightly. LOL, But I am glad they make scopes for the chinese army(ya never know). Keep us posted on how it goes with exchange or whatever happens.

I'll let you know what happens. I think I am going to email Scott tomorrow. The field of vision is small and it is heavy, but I didn't think it was horrible. Not as clear as my wallyworld counterpoint though.

Nope, definitely not as clear as a centerpoint. Makes things tiny too, lol , like those plastic kids binoculars(gi joe?) made in the 70-80's.
Has pretty blue lights inside though

Scott said he didn't have any loose scopes or he would have swapped it so he referred me to Umarex. Umarex requested that I return it. I will return it and we'll see how it goes. I have never dealt with them before.
