I was cleaning out some boxes of parts that I had and I found a Bushnell 1-4x LPVO that I had stashed away. I was planning on mounting it but then when I looked through it the internal surface of the optical lens appeared bubbled up (pic below). I called up Bushnell which wasn’t the greatest experience ever (if you have to talk to their customer service department choose the option to have them call you back, it’s not worth trying to wait on hold). At any rate they sent me a prepaid shipping label and I sent it back to them. I just got an email saying they looked at it and determined that it was fungus damage. They are supposed to be sending a replacement so other than an annoying experience getting in touch with them initially I am pretty impressed with their customer service.
Anybody heard of lens fungus before? I looked it up and apparently it’s a pretty big deal for telescopes and microscopes, but I couldn’t find anything related to weapon scopes.
