Overview
A 1-6x24mm second focal plane rifle scope built for AR-platform rifles, with an illuminated MSR BDC-6 reticle offering 11 brightness settings. It ships with SIG's Alpha-MSR one-piece aluminum cantilever mount and flip-back lens covers, and the tube is nitrogen-purged for waterproof, fogproof use.
This sits in the budget LPVO tier but reviewers who compare it to pricier optics like Vortex or Trijicon call the glass close enough for the price gap. The BDC-6 reticle hash marks are tuned for flat-shooting rounds like 5.56 and .308, so holdovers on other calibers take extra work to learn.
- 1-6x24mm second focal plane optic
- Illuminated MSR BDC-6 reticle, 11 brightness levels
- Includes Alpha-MSR aluminum cantilever mount
- Nitrogen-purged, waterproof and fogproof housing
Who it's for
Fits AR shooters wanting a low-power variable optic for 5.56 or .308 out to a couple hundred yards without paying premium-brand prices. Shooters who need edge-to-edge clarity at true 1x with both eyes open may notice distortion at the low end.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Buyers consistently point to the scope's value against pricier LPVOs, with several noting it holds zero reliably and mounts easily using the printed level line. The most common critique is mild glass distortion at 1x magnification, and some found the lower illumination settings too dim to see in daylight until turned up past 6.
