You are correct OP:
I did ask for a Viper PST 1-6 in August of 2013.
Here
Given the recent upgrades in the RAZOR line with the 3-18 and 4.5-27, I can tell you the 16004 and 005 1-6s are excellent and I've had no problem showing them off and showing a NF 1-4 that costs $70 less and someone tell me the NF reticle appears too similar to, um, a
Burris. I do quite often put the NF 1-4 vs the Viper PST 1-4 side by side and people really do gravitate toward the Viper even when I don't tell them the price.
I think the usefulness of a SFP 1-6 is probably being explored as we speak. If you read some of the details in my August 2013 post, you'll find some of the models that are currently being sold have a handful of similarities to what we suggest.
I'm glad to be able to give Vortex my honest feedback because they do listen and they do care.
It's great when there are companies out there that make it possible what people like us only imagine.
