no way anyone in their right mind would buy this scope. I can buy 3 good ar 15's for the price of this scope. $4000 is insane, I hope they sell ZERO of these
It might be a decent scope, but no scope is worth $4000.00. I just hope our military see's past this ridiculous extreme! There are too many other scopes that will do as well and for much less! I say boycott Leupold, don't buy their products and especially when some of their scopes don't even come with batteries...It's All Ridiculously OUTRAGEOUS!!!
The way it hangs out front like that makes lt look like it could be bonked out of accuracy pretty easy - see what I mean at 2:00 ... I'd like to see some endurance tests in tactical use situations done with it.
I'd have to agree, that looks like a shitty way to mount that nice of a piece of equipment. Why not slide the rail mount directly under the main body?

@otetechie that's only $3,337.91 each. I guess they got a discount.

@freestylmx311 They were designed for use on either the mk19 or m5. it's meant for the military not for the average shooter.

This guy has no idea of what he's doing representing Leupold tactical scopes!
He doesn't seem to know anything about them nor does he offer a reason to buy one.
We hope Leupold replaces this guy with someone not afraid to open his mouth!

in your opion which is better the trijicon short dot or this on???
jamesp6282 1 year ago
There is no such thing as a Trijicon Short Dot. What you are reffering to is the Trijicon Accupoint or the Schmidt and Bender Short Dot

I thought he just missed a comma and was asking about all three
tirjicon, short dot, or this

Would this work well on a .308 rifle? Such as a M1A or AR-10?

It is on a SCAR Mk17 in the video, I'm sure they will have one for a 5.56 gun and one for a 7.62 gun

Me too. The S&B is around $2500.

@Gun Websites Editors
I just find it weird that both leupold and S&B would come out with an 1-8 powered optic so similar at the same time. Coincidence?

I think it is more a factor of demand.. we got a lot of guys that make distance shots, that ALSO need their rifles to work close in

it will cost you a testicle, non negotiable and the testicle can not be cancerous... if it is cancerous you get a tasco scope

T_T I just purchased a tr24 with a green triangle.
But this would probably be too expensive.
And I can't imagine it having a huge 8x exit pupil anyways.
