Where to buy a scope?

Discuss firearm optics, sights, and scopes here (magnified, red-dot, iron sights, etc).

The only time I had a problem with Optic planet is the time they said it was in stock then after ordering it they had to refund me and tell me it is out of stock. Other orders have been fine.

I am fully aware I could save money online but, would rather give my money to someone in the community. Suggestions for a local shop preferably in the east valley that has a good selection of optics?
Might try Pistol Parlour in Mesa.

Have you had many good experiences with them? I put an order in with them a few weeks back. I know everyone is getting hit hard with orders right now, but they sat on my order for almost three weeks without shipping it. I just canceled it and ordered from somewhere else. Someone told me (after the fact) that they label a lot of stuff on their site as in-stock when it's actually not. I don't know if that's true or not.

Good look finding the scope you're looking for!

I bought a Sig Romeo 5 through their Amazon store a couple of months ago and it showed up quickly. YMMV...

Same here. I've bought quite a few scopes from them and they were promptly shipped.

To me Optics Planet is on the same level as Botach, IF it’s in stock you can get a good deal, if not you can wait months and hope it ever shows up, the problem is you never know whether or not they actually have it.
