Russian Binoculars & Monoculars - Reviews and where to buy from

Post by Sourojit » Fri Aug 28, 2020 10:34 am

Do any of you have any experience with Russian made binoculars?
I was searching online and found the website : https://binoculars.ru/
They have Russian made binoculars,Monoculars as well as spotting scopes.
The Binoculars are of the brand KOMZ.
They also have a brand named 'Sturman',I am not sure if that is a Russian or German brand or it is a Chinese brand though the name does not sound Chinese.
Is the above website reliable? They say they will use EMS Worldwide to make the delivery.
If any of you have experience using these binoculars and monoculars,Please tell me about it.
Or if you have experience with any other Russian binoculars and monoculars,tell me about it and also where can I get them online and if any shop in India sells such things.I am fond of military and World War items so I am looking for a USSR/Russian binocular/Monocular but wouldn't say no to old German,etc either.



I have selected the following 3 models:
Sturman ATAKER 8-20x50
https://binoculars.ru/product/binokl-st ... r-8-20x50/
$94

Sturman 8-24x50
https://binoculars.ru/product/binokl-sturman-8-24x50/
$64

Monocular MP 15x50 Rubin
https://binoculars.ru/product/monokuljar-mp-15h50-1/
$75

And do you have any idea whether I will need to pay any customs duty on this consignment and if yes,how much?



And what about this binocular from Croma India? Is it any good?
