I bought a Gen 1 Vortex Razor HD 20-60x85 mm angled spotting scope recently, new from Sportsmans Warehouse and decided to go a different route and buy a Swarovski. It's new in-box (old stock as the box is pretty beat up but the scope is in new condition). I'm 5 days outside of the Sportsmans return window so putting it up for sale here. Comes with a carry bag that doubles as a cover and opens up for use while mounted to a tripod. Photos to follow. Priced at $725 shipped. Payment shall be in PayPal Friends and Family or add 3%.
These scopes have AMAZING glass and many state the glass is superior to the Gen 2 scopes as it supposedly is Schott glass and Vortex discontinued that in the Gen 2.
