If it's made by Vortex, the quality is there. If you buy from Alan, there's a quality man standing behind the sale.
It seems to be a hot item and the reviews have been positive. Just ordered mine on Friday, will get it a try next weekend, weather permitting.

Vortex 1-6x24mm Strike Eagle Waterproof Scope - 644006, Rifle Scopes and Accessories at Sportsman's Guide
How is it $200 cheaper than the Vortex PST 1-4x24? Better adjustments? Better glass? I have been saving for the PST, should I keep saving or but the strike eagle? So many choices, so little monies.
