One of if not THE best sub-$1000 FFP scopes!!!!

No salesman talk - just my honest opinion. My customers that have been dealing with me for the past 15 years know me well enough - and they know I will NEVER sell ANY brand or any product, if I think it'll have issues and if I would not put my OWN money into that same product.

Falcon have dissected just about every high-end Chinese made brand and model out there that would be at the top of the pile in the price range, and have refined, refined and refined this S30i+ to be the absolute best scope China can produce at the price point NO more than the DNT 7-35x56 and the Arken EP5 Gen 2 7-35x56 - Seeing as DNT have already made sure that NO scope under CA$1000 can beat their offering.

Is this scope WAY better than a DNT 7-35x56? No, I would not say that - but it's at LEAST the equal of the DNT 7-35x56 in every respect - BUT offers better value for money given the superb included metal flip caps, slightly more usable throw lever and the fact it doesn't have the protruding "plug" beneath the turret housing.

Here is the DNT 7-35x56 and the Falcon S30i+ 3-30x56 on the scale - DNT weighs 2lbs 10.3oz and the Falcon is 2lbs 6.9oz.

You can also see the "plug" at the bottom of the DNT and how low you can mount the Falcon in a one-piece mount as it doesn't have that "plug". The body of the Falcon is also less "edgy" (more "sleek") than the DNT/Arken scopes.

If you like your Match Pro ED, then stick with it. I am merely telling people here, there's a VERY well made Chinese scope that is an alternative to Arken and DNT, which arguably have set the standard for quality and price.

NOT trying to push this scope on anyone - you buy what you like. But if I don't tell my customers how good this scope is for the money, how would they ever know?

Cheers

Robbie

Great info about affordable quality scope options out there. How about the s40i 4-40x58i ffp Ed mil only reticle by Falcon? Is it newly designed or improved upon like the s30i?

The S40i+ is an enhanced version of the previous S40i. I ordered the new S40i+, but Nick told me (given how critical I am about scopes), that I would not like the S40i+ as much as I like the S30i+, so I held off ordering them. You don't really need the extra 10x mag - as glass has to be spectacular to be great at 40x mag. Very few European scopes are excellent at 40x, and they cost 7 times more than the Falcon scopes. The S40i+ is a very very nice scope, but the S30i+ is a tad nicer.
