Has anyone tried ordering a Gen II scope from Vortex lately? I was quoted at least a month to just process the order and another 4-6 months to fulfill the order.

I ordered using the LE/MIL and had mine if 3 weeks.  I just ordered a second and hope it will be as quick.

I waited over a month and no processing time. Ended up just cancelling mine and going for a NF at a local dealer.

Are you doing the military discount or dealer discount ? I just did mine two weeks ago and had it in just over a week . That's mailing in the form and shipping to me.

I did the military discount route. I ended up getting a burris XTR II 5-25x50. Was at my house in 2 days.

I ordered a 3-15 and a 5-25 When they first came out and just got them a week or so ago.  I decided on keeping the 3-15 for my precision AR and put the 5-25 on EE now.

I ordered a second Gen II 4.5-27x56 (MOA) on June 20th.  They were backordered 6-8 weeks, but it arrived yesterday.

From date of order to date of receiving mine was about 3 weeks.  This was the Razor 4.5-27 model.

After tax and everything my PST gen II on Experticity came to 658. The wait was going to be 5-6 mo. I found it in stock at midway for 699 shipped.

I ordered the PST Gen II 5-25x50 MRAD on 8/21 from Experticity.

I'm really hoping it doesn't take 4-6 months to get it like they said.

I put a 5-25 FFP PST II Mrad on order yesterday and was quoted 6-9 months.  My orders last year were filled faster than the quoted lead time.

I see quite a few on the EE.

I only really started look for one within last week and half. ScopeList happened to get some in just time and my 5-25 should be here Monday :)

Picked up a 5-25 this week on Gunbroker.  Also MRAD

Ordered a Viper PST Gen 2 5-25x50 couple weeks ago.  ...Your estimated wait time is 2-3 months. (can you hear the computer/digitized voice in the back ground - lol)  I'm not in any rush.

I received a very unexpected mail last night stating my scope is on the way...  I ordered through Sportsmansguide and used the double member bonus. Paid $820.97 shipped

Not the FFP version then, huh? They don't seem to list the FFP one on their site.

I ordered my Gen 2 Razor HD 4.5-27x via the Mil/Leo discount program on 9/15, it shipped out the next day and I had it three days later.
