Bob, Chuck owns all 3 flavors (Bears, Obies, and Galileos) and swears they are all made by the same Asian factory. The body is aluminum, the objective cones are plastic. BaK4 prisms, and some coatings; I love my Galileos, a super deal. Read Chuck's review here: http://www.uvaa.org/hardsbinoreview.html -Rich --- RStmarie@aol.com wrote:

Hi, my name is Bob, and I'm an Astro-haulic... Hey folks how do you think these cheap 15x70's compare to a set of Pentax 15x60's (sportsman's warehouse, ~$250) I was thinking of buying? At $70, even if they are plastic, they ought to be worth it. Chuck, you have a couple don't you?
