I have a friend that has a Simmons and it is on a 6MM and I thought it was the best Scope I ever looked through, I just have not been that impressed w/ scopes in stores even the big $ ones you know? I would like one with no black. That Simmons was like that NO black.

From the link it looks like Weaver and Simmons only make mounts and not scopes, is that right? Or are the scope divisions owned by somebody else? Just curious. Since I sold the shop in '98 I've been out of touch with what's going on.

Scopes are made by the meade optics company.
But are they still marketed as Weaver and Simmons?
