Optics/Sights

The combination of close-range hog hunting combined with the possibility of longer shots is why Primary Arms’ new SLX 1-10 caught my eye.

Parasec Sights are absolutely fantastic and are set to take the industry by storm. They simplify the learning curve of aiming, are amazing for aging eyes, and are tough as a coffin nail. They are going on all my Glock’s now that they are available, and all my other guns as they become available. And that is the strongest endorsement I can give.

From the ground up, the XM157 is an optic that features Vortex’s revolutionary technology, with what many call a “smart scope”.

Built rugged and ready for the field, this Razor did not disappoint.

Draw. Range. Shoot. It really is that simple with Garmin’s new “smart” red dot made for bowhunters.

Built for extreme hunters and shooters, this angle-compensated ballistic laser rangefinder can quickly calculate customized holds based on uploaded ballistics data.

Being able to fill the role of a scanner, clip-on, and dedicated scope puts the RH25 into a category of its own that very few products can compete with.

A lumen has a technical definition, but generally speaking, it’s about as bright as a single candle. More importantly for this discussion, a lumen measures the total energy output of a light without regard for beam angle.

The rifle optics game has been changing a lot as of late, one might even say turning on its head.
