The Vortex Spitfire Gen 2 HD is my new example for the reasons why prism optics rock. The Spitfire’s small size but capable magnification make it a perfect carbine optic. It’s no designated marksman’s optic, but for the typical carbine ranges, the Spitfire works and works well. The price point is affordable, and the optic is well suited for a variety of firearms.

A few years ago, Vortex Optics entered the laser rangefinder game and shook up the industry. Offering multiple options and expanding that lineup to what it is today, this Vortex rangefinder is designed to fit almost all your needs. Competing in the mid-range of affordability, the Vortex Ranger 1800 packs a lot of performance for the price. 

The Sparc Solar provides a very competent optic for a fair price. It’s tough to beat the Sparc Solar if you need to outfit a home defense, competitive, or hunting firearm with a red dot.

I cut my teeth with an ACOG on an M16A4 and have always appreciated the simplicity and design of a good prism optic. As such, when Vortex released the latest Spitfire HD Gen 2 models, my ears perked up. Emails were sent, and Vortex happily sent me a Spitfire HD Gen 2 5X optic.

When the situation calls for shooting the same gun up close or hundreds of yards out, the Vortex Razor Gen III 1-10x has the features to allow top performance at either end of the spectrum. The 10 power gives that little extra to make things possible at greater distances.

One scope to rule them all. From dark-timber whitetails, to executing precision long-range shots on an open-country mule deer, and everything in between – there’s the Razor HD LHT.

GunsAmerica is partnering with our friends at Vortex and the Fisher House to benefit wounded veterans and their families.

If you are familiar with the Vortex Razor HD Gen II 1-6, and have found yourself wanting a little more magnification on the top end, this is your year.

“When we began this project, we started with a single goal – create the world’s premier low power variable riflescope,” said David Hamilton, Vortex Optics Chief Development Officer in a press release obtained by GunsAmerica.
