i'm trying to figure out if a nightforce 8-32 will fit in a larue mount on the receiver of an ar .......

$1200-1400 for the scope, $200 to 240 for the scope mount, say around #1500 for the whole set up. Ain't friggin' worth it!!!! I've got a Simmons 4x12 Pro50 that costs only about 10% of what a Nightforce does and will do 90% of what the Nightforce will do. Don't get me wrong, I like nice scopes. But SH********T! Some things are way overpriced for what they are!!!! |
   put down the moonshine dan......... |
I'm not too high up on the simmons stuff either, I've had two of them that the reticule broke loose and turned under the mild recoil of a 11lb 22-250, if they can't hold up to that recoil, then they're better suited to 22lr and air rifles. |
I know what you are talking about with the Phillipine made Simmons scopes. But these are made in Japan. I got them for silhouetter rifles and have used one extensively for over 10 years on a Savage rilfe. Nothing wrong with the Japanese Simmons scopes. The Phillipine ones ain't too good, I must admit!
