    Question Falcon Optics?

    I'm on the lookout for a MRAD scope and Falcon Optics came up in my search but I never heard of them before and I haven't managed to find a lot of reviews on them.
    Anyone got any experience with them? Here's the one I'm looking at https://www.fireandsteel.co.nz/falco...ope-illuminate

    They are pretty good, I've got an earlier 4-14 ffp and the optics are very bright, clear and very positive tracking. Very good value for money.

    What more well known scopes would you say the glass is on par with?

    I reviewed one year's ago and really upset the guy who sells them because it broke. Didn't survive the tracking test.

    This was a long time ago and they have probably improved.

    Pretty sure they are friction adjust so you can't dial them. But like you say, if all it has to do is hold zero, sweet.

    You don't usually look for an MRAD scope to just hold zero.
