Lots of surprises - Athlon Optics Talos BTR 1-4 x 24mm Rifle Scopes 30mm Second Focal Plane

I have very mixed feelings about this scope. I really like the cross hairs and the glass is very clear. however the fact that they are made in china is very well hidden until you actually buy the product and find it printed in very large gold letters on the scope. also the 1 power is no where close to true 1x zoom. you have to be somewhere between 1.5 and 2 power before things are actually at a true 1, any smaller and it's actually like zooming out. it's a cheap scope and it should be pretty effective for close range shooting but definitely not the same quality of other scopes like vortex.
