    Product page says "Premium Warranty" and the Warranty page only lists "Extended" and "Deluxe" warranties?
    Thanks.
    Alpen Optics Canada will also offer the same deluxe warranty on Red Dots.

    Great guy! I met him a couple of months ago in Germany at the IWA show. He was supporting Alpen at the show. I learned quite a bit from him over the 2 days I was at that show. I just pulled out his card and I'm going to send him a message

    Yup great guy and very knowledgeable. Good to chat to about stuff. I’d asked him about Alpen a while back coming to Canada he wasn’t sure but now I know who to chat with.

    Cheers,

    Also, if you look at the Technical Drawing tab for some of the scopes, there is a detailed overview of the reticle. The manual is also downloadable for each scope, and even more information is available.
    Yeah, I didn't scroll all the way down. So no way to know it's there unless you do scroll everything. I'm just saying, I'm used to searching online and didn't see it, sure others will have trouble. But hey, that's just me giving some feedback you do whatever you want with it.

    Also, still haven't found the prism reticles...

    Both Prisms on the same page as the rifles scopes.

    but here are the links

    Wasn't that I didn't find the prism, couldn't find their reticles. Finally got to see them by downloading the manual.

    My suggestion would be to have the reticles in the product pictures, that would be much easier for the customer. Also, I don't know if it's only on my phone or if others have that problem too, but when opening the data/specs, half the page is off screen and I have to turn my phone to see everything.

    Sorry if this all sound whiny, just interested in the brand/product and have a hard time with your website. Also worked in the field a long time ago so this stuff comes easy... Your reply/support seems excellent tho!

    The manuals are not optimized for a phone. They were designed to be printed, and most likely would be difficult to read on a phone anyways. Thanks for your feed back on the website, we are very happy with how it turned out.

    I don’t see torque recommendations in the manuals - I may have missed it, but would appreciate that being easy to find.

    Thanks for pointing that out. The website was build off of the German/UK website. I went to Alpen in Germany and asked the question and recommended specifications. The Product manager, Dominik, replied back this morning with the following.

    "The torque requirements depends on the mount that you use. To be 100% correct the customers has to check the mount manufacturers website.

    As a rule of thumb, use 1,5 Nm to 2,5 Nm (13,27 to 22 inch pounds). I personally mount my scopes with 2Nm or 17,7 inch pounds and haven´t had any problems with normal hunting calibers up to .30-06"


    Thank you for pointing out the missing information
