These scope look like the same scope but have different numbers.
One is #67905 and the other #56994. They are both 1.5-5x SPR scope. Any ideas? |

The two are essentially the same. The 67905 is the latest version of the Leupold MR/T 1.5-5. There are two differences with regards to the MR/T's illumination. The illumination dial has off settings between each intensity level. The other is that the dial has a motion sensor that turns it off if left alone. Leupold also claims it's 15% brighter however neither optic is daylight visible so not sure I'd put much stock in that. To that end, the illumination is only usable from dusk to dawn and you're going to crank the dial to your satisfaction anyway.
I'm of the opinion that while neat, the differences between these to model #'s aren't necessarily important unless you're set on the latest edition of what I consider to be a very practical 50-500 yard precision optic for the AR15. Either will get the job done - and get it done well. If the cost was negligible - I'd recommend the 69705. Since the 56994 is the previous version, you'll find some good deals out there and won't miss a beat on performance. Heck I have one for sale now. Hope that helps, good luck. |
