Sporter's on Astromart for sale.

This is all fine, guys, but my in the car bins are even cheaper, 20 dollar Barskas, porros. I have drieven with them in the trunk for 9 months and no loss in alignment. Inside the car I have some old 10x25 Bushnells, if I am too lazy to stop and go get the ones in the trunk.

Sporters: buy as many as you can afford. One for every car and every window of your house. Or cabin. One for guests.

Car thefts: I had my wife's camera and tool bag stolen out of my Accord trunk while at a Wisconsin motel. I did not know she left it there. Thiefs are experts with Accords, Camrys.

There's a pair of 8x32 LNIB Nikon Sporters on Astromart for sale for $110.00. They sound like a deal to me. There pretty good glass I guess for the money. I had some Barskas porros once. They were just a little to fuzzy at the edge for me. Reminded me of a Nikon Action 7x35 I once had. Once your used to upper end glass it is hard to go down to the real low end stuff.

Yes, the other option is to get good compacts and just carry them around in my work bag to the building, not leaving them in the car. But now I am used to 8x40. A bit heavy for the briefcase bag for all day and every day.

It will be kind of nice to have a knock around pair of binoculars that you don't have to worry about....

That's why I bought my Ultravids. They get knocked around, I drop them, the car runs over them... they break, I send them back and they fix or replace them, no questions asked. Ever.
