Factory has order shipping out at the end of December. I am going to put them up for pre order now. Hurry I don't think they will last long as we already have some dealer orders in. We are shipping them air freight but it still usually takes 2-3 weeks to get here and clear customs so mid to late Jan shiping to you.

Factory just updated ETA to first half of Jan. All I can say is get your pre order in and we will get them here as soon as we can.

Does anyone know if there is a carry handle mount?

I have too many penguins on my iceberg and could have sworn I read that these were supposed to ship with the carry handle mount but mine didn't have one, and I can't find one for separate purchase either.

Either way it looks like a good prism for the price, I put it on my beater AR with FSB which is why I ask. Maybe it would be possible to get one from somewhere else and jerry rig it? I have to imagine one of these on a carry handle mount would provide secure and redundant sighting (incase for whatever reason the 2x went down).

Pmed, sample looks great! Guessing they take the normal acog screw like the current one does?

Sovich Joined Dec 2020 Posts 1 EE 0% (0) USA	Posted: 12/21/2020 4:45:33 AM EDT [#32] I’m on the preorder list, but I wanted to ask if anyone with experience with this optic could let me know if I’m overthinking it if I want to get an offset red dot for back up/CQB. I understand that this was made with close quarters in mind, but I feel like the magnification might be a problem in a home defense scenario.

You're way overthinking it. The slight magnification won't be an issue. Bindon applies.
