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. While testing this scope, I appreciated the exposed windage and elevation turrets, allowing for quick, easy adjustments without needing tools. Its aerospace-grade aluminum construction and nitrogen-purged, multi-coated lenses hold up well in harsh conditions, staying clear and fog-free. At just 15.2 ounces, it’s a lightweight yet tough addition to any rifle setup, backed by Crimson Trace’s complete lifetime warranty for extra peace of mind.

Monstrum Panzer

Introducing the Monstrum 1-6x24 Panzer FFP LPVO, part of the Panzer Series, combining high-end features with unbeatable value. This first focal plane scope offers 1-6x magnification and includes an integrated throw lever for smooth control. Choose between the CM3 Reticle or Morpheus MIL Reticle—ideal for rapid target acquisition at 1x and precise ranging at higher magnifications. The FFP design ensures reticle markings adjust proportionally across magnification levels, maintaining consistent ranging accuracy. Equipped with Extra Low Dispersion (ED) glass, it delivers vivid color contrast and a sharper image by minimizing chromatic aberration. Additional features include adjustable reticle illumination, an offset cantilever mount, and spring-loaded flip-up lens covers.
