    Vortex Viper 6x32 binoculars review

    I was a sucker for a good price, so I ordered this bin and received it today. All this knowing from your opinion, it suffered from barrel distortion. I thought, how bad could it be?

    Oh great. Now not only are you guys forcing me to google words for their meaning, I can't even pronounce them. My face?? Let's just say I wouldn't have much luck in Hollywood.

I'll admit being a little overwhelmed at all the wonderful offerings today. It'll take me some time to catch up. I guess all...

    Hello from rural Wisconsin.

    I stumbled into this place while searching out a new pair of binoculars. I don't know why...my current Nikon Superior E 8x32 has been used all of three or four times in the past several years since I purchased them. Fine glass, but not waterproof. I also noticed a sub forum for my other hobby...
