Leupold & Stevens will sell its Redfield brand to Academy, which will own brand rights and will develop and sell the gear exclusively across its 259 stores. Redfield joins several other hunting and fishing brands exclusive to Academy, the release states, including Magellan Outdoors, Monarch, H2O Xpress and Game Winner.

Leupold is trimming down its business, just as the North American shooting market booms. The Oregon-based scope maker has spun off its subsidiary Redfield, selling the brand off to Academy Sports + Outdoors.

One of the best things about the Redfield scopes is their price. They are American made by American workers, but are priced lower than many imports. I usually do not list prices in my reviews, as prices change over the years, but as of this writing, prices on the Redfield Revolution scopes start at just under $130 US.

Academy Sports + Outdoors Leupold & Stevens, Inc. announced the sale of its Redfield hunting scope brand to Academy Sports + Outdoors. “The sale of Redfield to Academy Sports + Outdoors is part of our continued strategic focus on the Leupold brand,” said Bruce Pettet, president and chief executive officer, Leupold & Stevens, Inc.

Sorry to break it ya, but Redfield HAS been Leupold's China-made brand since they bought it. The name allowed them to sell Chinese produced optics of fair quality w/o "dirtying" the Leupold name.

“We will continue to produce the world's best performance optics for the elite outdoor athlete." The sale includes the brand rights for the Redfield brand of sports optics. Academy will develop and sell quality sports optics exclusively for Academy Sports + Outdoors under the Redfield brand going forward.

In 1909, John Redfield established Redfield Gunsight Company in Denver. Initially, John spent more time designing firearms than sights. He developed a gas-driven 7mm rifle and a pistol with collapsible stock. But demand for his sights--like the popular Sourdough Partridge front blade--soon kept his focus there.

Leupold and Stevens currently have over 700 employees at their factory in Beaverton, Oregon. Since the manufacturing of binoculars is outsourced to factories in Japan and China, the US factory mainly focuses on the manufacturing of riflescopes, red dot sights, spotting scopes, rangefinders, and thermal trackers.

pheasant hunting Redfield is a growing community in beautiful Northeast South Dakota. Our 100-year tradition of pheasant hunting earned the city the title "Pheasant Capital of the World®". The area is poised for growth and has a number of development projects in the works, including a new school and an airport runway.

Leupold riflescopes are all designed, machined, and assembled in our Beaverton Oregon manufacturing facility. We do not have any other riflescope manufacturing facilities or offices anywhere in the world.
