    Swarro scopes

    Hey team.
    Anyone know if there is any real world difference between the Habicht AV and the Z3? Both 3-10x42.
    I just bought the Z3 and then the Habicht popped up so I bought that too haha. Now need to decide between them.
    To my untrained eye they look nearly identical. Z3 is slightly more curvy, but both generally have the same form factor. Same turrets even.
    Just wondering if the Z3 has better lens coatings or anything? Google wasn’t much help

    The Z3 has some superficial scratches on the body while the Habicht is mint. I’ll keep one and sell the other

    take them out at last light and see how they compare side by side to your eyes then keep which ever one performs better to you

    Yeah man I tried that. I couldn’t see any discernible difference between them.

    I’ve got both in the 3-9x36 and 3.5-10x42.
    No difference to my eye. The earlier ones are made in Austria. Later assembled in the us.
