My Javelin arrived yesterday. Impressive scope. Great built quality. Can’t wait to try it outside.

Delta Stryker HD 4.5-30x56

Are the Javelins made in Japan too?
If so I would likely buy one. Just bought a Japan Tract Toric probably receive it Late next week and no Delta Stryker to compare it to.

I still think people are missing out on one of the best scopes out there maybe even the best period in this price range!. That is the Nightforce 12-42x56, very good glass, focuses down to 10yds, SFP, very positive clicks, tracks consistently and best of all AO for focus! for the most precise finite adjustments.
And made in Japan By L.O.W. to Nightforce specs.

They say it's made in China: https://www.optics-trade.eu/en/delta-optical-javelin-4-5-30x56-ffp.html
On Ebay, they claim it’s from the same factory as the Athlon Ares ETR :

”Everything you have heard good about the Athlon Ares ETR scope applies here. These are the same scope from the same factory but the Javelin has many upgrades and costs less. These include (not shown in the picture) an Aluminum SUN SHADE, Aluminum LENSCAPS that are perfectly made and thread into the scope (The objective lens cap will also thread into the sunshade), Locking Turrets and Screw in THROW LEVER!”
I got mine a week ago. The image quality is incredibly good and sharp.

There's absolutely no comparison between a Chinese made scope to a Japan made scope in regards to optical and turret greatness.

I'd buy the one with the NO BS LIFETIME WARRANTY when then given the choice if the price is THAT CLOSE unless it was like a US Optics TS12X vs Vector Veyron ss Discovery price differemce.
You have to ask yourself...
Who in the USA handles the ACTUAL WARRANTY REPAIRS? Trustworthy HASSLE FREE AFTER the point of sales dealer?
