Supposedly took effect Jan 15.

I have not had a chance to update my website yet myself. I got the new price list on Jan 14 or maybe 13 and it was to take effect the 15th. I was getting ready for SHOT -- we left early on the 16th and just got back last Saturday night late and I am trying to get caught up with business from the week I was gone. But you will see all the legit dealers go up in the next short while due to the price change. They have one every year.

Think it was like 4%.

We still have some at the old pricing.

Is it some kind of 'buy now or pay more later" marketing tactic courtesy of Aimpoint or is there an actual change to the scopes that makes them cost more?

inflation, materials costs, giving your workers a payraise, etc.

To answer your question, they cost the same Krona's to make them... But if the US Dollar continues to weaken against the Krona the same rate it did last year, you will likely see more increases...
