probably no-name brand, cheap scope by one of the lesser companies probably.

it weren't cheap, i paid $220 for it, i found several of them on some auction sites and the prices were in the $150-160 range with several days left to bid, i just want to know who makes it, it is a very well made scope, it is as clear as my leupold, the clicks on the knobs are very precise and has an audible click so there is no doubt about the settings.

The price you paid does not dictate whether or not it is a "cheap" scope.  

Can you tell us more?  
What type of reticle does it have?  
Does it say where it's made?
Can you take a few more pics, especially of the knobs and eyepiece bell?

Last time I was at teh fun show, there was an asian company selling a new brand of scope that was not badged. They looked similar to those and the knobs kind of remind me of NF's.

They had a cutaway model of that scope for display. Looked like a nice scope, but thats pretty much just from looks.

Let us know how it is.

Those rings look aweful.

Makes the Walmark rings look heavy duty!

You hurt his feelings, you bastards!

First you tell him he paid too much money for a POS no-name scope, call his scope rings crap, then you criticize his photography skills.

Where is the love that used to permeate these boards? Where is the .... Oh wait, this is AR15.com, isn't it.

This is great. maybe after you spend the 2 bills on an product that doesnt even bare a logo or manufactures name , your getting second thoughts about it?

Either way, deal with it. If you didnt want to hear comments, you wouldnt have posted this on an internet forum.

Listen kid, you bought a cheap ass scope from some no-name company. Probably Chinese. I'm sure it'll work well enough but I wouldn't go betting my life on it. I mean really, does it matter who makes the scope? If it compares as well as you say it does to your Leupold, then hell, I guess you got a smoking deal. So you have a picture of your Leupold?
