You’re Part of the Tradition
In a sport rich in tradition, Leupold® has earned its place as one of the classic names in hunting and shooting. To be sure, the Golden Ring® scope you now own is the finest example of Leupold heritage.
Frederick Leupold came to Portland, Oregon, from Germany in 1907, and quickly established a firm to manufacture and repair surveying transits. Fred’s son, Marcus, broadened the company’s focus in the late 1930s after the avid outdoorsman missed a buck on the soggy western slopes of Oregon’s Cascade Range. (His scope had fogged, as was common for scopes of that era.) Frustrated by the experience, Marcus set out to build a better scope. The rest, as they say, is history.
Marcus Leupold’s quest for quality has continued on to the present. In the words of the firm’s founder, Frederick Leupold, “We solemnly promise never to let down on quality; the customer is entitled to a square deal.” This is why we build every Leupold Golden Ring product to be worthy of the Leupold Full Lifetime Guarantee. It’s the best customer protection in the business, and it’s the best way we know to thank you for buying Leupold.
