Crimson Trace Hardline
The Crimson Trace Hardline 3-9x40 is built for shooters who need a no-nonsense, durable scope that handles everything from close to mid-range engagements. Featuring a second focal plane CT Custom BDC .223/5.56 reticle, it offers precise shot placement with its 1/4 MOA click adjustments.
