Nightforce Question

I own a 8-32X NXS Nightforce scope and really like it. A little heavy but great optics. I know Nightforce is the brand name owned by Lightforce in Australia. Lightforce's website hints that their products are made in Australia, but my Nightforce has a "made in Japan" sticker on it. I've also heard that Nightforce has an American plant somewhere out west. Who really makes Nightforce? :confused:
 
Nightforce

Somewhere around Stites Idaho. My brother who lives in Stites has a neighbor that works in their local plant.
 
I have a Nightforce 12-42X56 BR. I just tried it for the first time at
the range Saturday. Great glass! Crispy clear at 100yds and 200yds.
The reason I got it is because just about 80% of the F class guys in our
range/club use them and swear by the ruggedness, maintaining POA, reticle
being etched [they do not shift] and the best warranty work around.
I was told they are Japanese optics, parts and assembled here in the USA. ;)

I can attest to thier ruggedness. My F/Tr rig was run over by a minivan at a match last year. The front wheel went over the front ring, breaking the sinclair f pod, driving th ewhole rig into the mud. I happened to have a spare set of rings, so I remounted the scope, threw on the spare bipod, and went on to win the match. I hope to never experience that feeling again, but I have no doubts as to the scope's ability to take some punishment!
