What you want to make sure is that the scope is spring gun rated. If not it is only a matter of time before it fails!

Budget scope for a R9..
- Thread starter Zeke G.
- Start date
Bottom line is....what does the warranty state ?? Unless the warranty states full warranty for life, you will just keep buying more scopes over time !! Get the cheapest scope that offers a full lifetime warranty!! Odds will be better if the rifle has a good tune on it...

https://amzn.to/3vz7PoN - This Hawke is as solid as it gets, and has a lifetime warranty. For this price you probably won't find a better deal.

I don't know if they advertise it as "no fault warranty". If I had to give a warranty on something I will definitely NOT give a "unlimited no fault warranty". That will just make the end user careless in using and abusing the product. So, don't blame any company for not doing it.

It won't make the user careless, LOL. Most quality brands of scopes come with a lifetime warranty. If it doesn't, you question why they don't support it.

Read tge last couple sentences in their warranty, " must be returned in unused like new condition in original box and paperwork" ....in otherwords, the warranty is useless !!

Same experience with me . Bought a display model Talos cheap that the turrets been twisted to death and sent it in . Just the days to get it to them , a couple of days with them, then the days getting it back in hand ( 2 weeks+/-) and got a solid working scope .
All I needed was a brief explanation of what's wrong with it and the only question asked was whats my return address.. that's it. No bill of sale no nothing as in a true no questions asked and fixed and quick turn a round.

Company called Wulf makes airgun scopes and after digging a bit, found some on Optics Planet. Their Fireball line has been getting quite high marks from shooters in the UK forums I belong to, aren't expensive and come with a Lifetime Warranty. From looking they also include a set of Medium rings and free shipping.
For $89.99 for the 3-9x40 version, might well be worth a try and they also have a 2-7x32:

That is not the warranty for a defective scope, that is if you are returning a scope for a refund. I do believe you need a receipt if it was purchased after 2018, although I've heard of people getting replacements without the receipt.

Another vote for anything UTG / Leapers.
Inexpensive, under-rated, lifetime warranty, full of features, and most of all...DURABLE!
I purchased 5 of these scopes, 12 or 15 years ago, and they have been on a number of airguns over the years.
I have one as a spare thats brand new, just waiting to be installed!
Ive definately gotten my moneys worth.
Expensive glass has come and gone over the years, but I keep coming back to these.
