Seyberts$

Some products have pretty tightly controlled MSRP's. If PD was undercutting improperly then Seybert's was in no way running afoul by notifying them. Much ado 'bout nothing really. Used to be in gun/sporting gds. business and stuff like this happened a lot. We nailed a place for under-pricing a named brand scope by a big margin. Manuf. sent a cease/desist order and closed their account.
I was looking to buy a red dot scope and all the on line sites wanted$65.
I found an E bay seller that wanted $47 and that's where I bought it.
It was a Bushnell scope.
 
I needed a tip to finish a job. Seyberts got it to me promptly. They weren't the least expensive, but I trust and appreciate their service. Roger Pettit

Hi Roger! I still have that sneaky Pete I bought from you back in the 80s! Hope you're doing okay! Mike Herron.

Not knocking Bushnell, i've owned a few, but the scope in question was a hi-dollar Leupold. They weren't real happy and pulled that shops dealership.
 
I got curious/bored and just asked Seyberts. They said they'd never do anything like that. Said they have no control over what others do nor do they care.

I bought it for my Smith & Wesson foldable 9MM carbine.
Just going to dial it in for 50 yards and I'm good.

Hi-dollar Leupold. Why the redundancy? ;)

Great glass, best warranty, period.
And yes, they protect their reputation and image (no pun intended) very seriously.
Have "loop-olds" on all my rifles.
 
Yeah it gives me a little more firepower than my two .380 handguns.
We in 'MURICA like our guns.
I shot a couple of different guns when I was living in Montana. It was a bit surreal to me at first, but understandable in the contexts my friends explained (protection from wild animals, and criminals basically). My friend's attitude to ownership was more cautious and serious than some other people I met there. Personally, I did not like how shooting big guns made me feel. But I had a bit of fun shooting handguns, which was a bit of a novelty to me at the time.

I did get into a scuffle in a bar near the end of my time there, that threw me through a loop and made me very anxious in my remaining days there knowing that I did not have one, while everyone else did - because I was ready to take the situation outside, as I would in my hometown when someone would be up in my face like that, and my friend had to pull me back and explain to me what would happen if I won the fight... and that there is no winning as a foreigner without a weapon. After that, even in the middle of the day I felt quite unsafe... even though I was in a lovely, quiet city.

Growing up in my hometown, we only ever had a rifle. No idea what make or model, and the way it had to be kept and stored was very different from the gun cases I'd see in the US (the rifle was to stop foxes eating chickens according my grandad, we mostly used it for putting holes in the side of an old farm building).

They have various lines as you well know. Some are WAY more expensive than others.
