    Not used to retailers who go to the lengths GBT does for support after the sale for a product they carry, and not manufacture.

    Lesson learned, and a good reminder as to why people keep coming back here.
    No problem, you'll be looked after!

    Got this little scope today - without killflash but it is onsale for a very good price, so can't complain.

    Its mounting space is 102mm and my mount is 99mm so fits perfectly

    in comparison with vx3i 2.5-8x36 looks about the same, maybe a bit brighter.

    Here are pics (all scopes set at 6x. It is 160m to that brown house and 320m to the house behind it):

    and just as a comparison Nikon Black FX1000 4-16x50

    it has a very short eye relief though (2-3 inches) compared to other scopes, it may not work on a regular hunting rifle. It seems that it was designed for AR platform.

    Colors and contrast seem very good but horrible chromatic aberrations... That's a huge no go for me unfortunately. It always distracts me too much...

    It seems to be my cell phone camera. I am not seeing it through the scope. Here is another pic where I set ISO manually on the cell phone camera.

    There was some confusion about what these included, but these intro models do include an ARD/Killflash at no charge.
    Is anyone making a throw lever for these yet?

    Those look nice, but not sure I can justify a $110 throw lever on a $700 scope. Thanks for getting back.

    Well Ive had this awesome little scope since March and put it thru the paces. Its been on my CRPS/ORPS rifle and been cranked up,down,left,right I wouldnt want too guess how many times and its always where its suppose to be. In my opinion its worth double or more for what they sell for. Not really sure about the Chromatic aberation but im not taking pics for National Geographic. Dot on target ,squeeze trigger, smile and repeat. We are not talking about a Smidt or Kahles or Zeiss or Swaro or any other high end optic but a great deal on a scope loaded with features and very well made from what Ive seen so far. Anybody thats looked thru it has been imprerssed for the dollar value. Highly reccomend the scope and GBT, an awesome combination.
