Vortex Viper PST Gen I
The Vortex Viper PST Gen I riflescope offers serious precision and clarity that’s perfect for dedicated hunters and tactical shooters alike. Featuring a 6-24x50mm configuration, it delivers a broad range of magnification suited for long-range shots without compromising on image sharpness. Hunters will appreciate its illuminated reticle, designed for low-light conditions, which aids accuracy during dawn or dusk. The exposed turrets allow for quick and easy adjustments in the field, letting you zero in with confidence. Built ruggedly, it holds up well under intense conditions, thanks to its shockproof and waterproof design. The Viper PST Gen I is an ideal scope for those who want performance without adding excessive weight to their setup.
Monstrum Alpha
The Alpha Series GA1424 FFP Rifle Scope by Monstrum Tactical is built for serious shooters looking for reliability without unnecessary features. With 1-4x magnification, this scope excels at close to mid-distance shooting, reaching out to 300 yards. It boasts a first focal plane MOA reticle that provides clear ranging information, making it easy to estimate distances and adjust for holdover. Constructed from tough aircraft-grade 6061 aluminum, it features a sealed, nitrogen-charged tube to keep out moisture and fog. The MIL-STD 8625 type III hard anodized finish ensures it can withstand rugged conditions. Plus, it comes with spring-loaded flip-up lens covers to keep your lenses protected. The scope also includes a two-year replacement warranty. However, it does not offer reticle illumination, locking turrets, a detachable honeycomb killflash, or scope rings.
