londonhunter Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 Just going back a weeks There is talk of Schmidt not entertaining civilians There is rumours of short supply in the market There is talk of York Guns not being a schmidt dealer anymore There is even talk of stocking up NOW. If you want a Schmidt scope because there is going such shortage when there is an official announcement Well what the hell is this then http://www.sportsmanguncentre.co.uk/product/594b2779448bc8f885795174/Schmidt+and+Bender+PMII+5-25x56+Side+Parallax'2C+Illuminated/ Is Steve jobbs alive and working for Schmidt and bender ? Because it is working very well.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danpd Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 Most likely sportsman have bought all of yorks remaining stock at a good price, this isn't a popular reticle hence the price is indicative of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

londonhunter Posted May 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 Agreed, plus it's second focal plain. ATB Just called sportman before closing They can supply FFP at the same price and have limited numbers available They stated this offer has nothing to do with York GUNS or their sidekick LGA supplies !

But it's also the fat version of the P4 ret that no one wants: http://www.sportsmanguncentre.co.uk/product/964f97da0e8047c930424419/Schmidt+and+Bender+PMII+5-25x56+Side+Parallax%272C+Illuminated/ Buy one if you want one (Be interested in hearing how it plays out if you try ordering one with the ret you want!)

I dont need anymore scopes I have got 4 x PM II 's already I am surprised that it's discounted by such a big margin whatever the specs This is not the case in the US or in Germany where this reticle is widely sold without an issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brown dog Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 This is not the case in the US or in Germany where this reticle is widely sold without an issue Data?! Widely sold or widely offered? Since it's of sufficient interest to you to post here and phone the shop, phone again and see how the conversation goes in terms of delivery dates if you try to order a non-fat P3 or P4. Be interested to hear. I think the intuition of everyone else in this thread is that this is old non-moving stock being dumped. I'd suggest that the 'word' of a salesman in sales mode is not a reliable source of solid intelligence. Good chance to add to your PM2 collection.

brown dog Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 Probably best that we close the thread there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronin Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 Probably best that we close the thread there Just before we do. I understand that S&B are supplying direct to dealers now with NO importer, this bears well for sales and prices. My local shop is dealing direct , so the info is correct. This may be the case with the large franchise in Devon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
