    Looks like their site is pretty non functional. Not a good omen.

    A quick google turned up several complaints and a not so good BBB rating.

    The question that comes to my mind is `did someone recommend this place or did you just read about their works`? Hearing good things about their work and hopefully seeing a sample of it does wonders for wanting them to work for me.Robert

    BBB jst told me that owner has passed away and company is no longer in business, court is involved in sending repaired products, but will take time.
    Do not do business with this company. My letter was returned as undeliverable. I have been the victim of a theft of scope and have lost $98.00 in trying to have the scope repaired.

    DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY!!!

    If the guy passed away it's kinda hard to call it theft.

    Contact the court and put in a claim for your scope and refund

    My brother in law sent his Tasco RDS in for repair's, sent them the funds and then when he called to check the progress he was told that the owner had passed away and the company had closed.
    In the past I as well as my BIL have sent several RDS to ABO for repair with fast repair's at a reasonable cost.
    Its a loss to all shooters who had rifle scope's , and RDS problems they did Tasco , Redfield and many other brands as well and even replaced a switch on a Aimpoint comp model that the factory had discontinued the parts for,
