- perardi 6y agoYup, I totally forgot about that. Though that still gets to my point that they make optics, and pretty much just optics. Makes it hard to pivot (ugh, sorry) to anything else, from a corporate mentality standpoint.
- alacombe 6y agoIf I'm mistaken, Nikon existed the scope business earlier this year.
- Exmoor 6y agoI wasn't aware of that, but you appear to be right [0]. The spotting scopes I mentioned are more like telescopes meant for viewing terrestrial objects such as wildlife, shooting targets, etc. [0] https://www.digitalcameraworld.com/news/gun-control-nikon-withdrawing-from-the-rifle-scope-business https://www.digitalcameraworld.com/news/gun-control-nikon-wi...
