[ARCHIVED THREAD] - TWO Very Unique Scopes from Nightforce

Posted: 10/1/2009 4:10:15 PM EDT

Here are TWO very unique scopes from Nightforce. What makes them unique is the CAMO Anodize job. Nightforce did few scopes with this CAMO anodize look as a test run. What do you think?

Nightforce NXS 1-4X24mm w/ FC-2 RET Tan CAMO this (1 of a kind) Click to view or sight

1-4 x 24 NXS
If hunting big, dangerous game is your passion, there is no better scope on the market to keep the odds in your favor. Its low profile complements big bore bolt action and double rifles. At 1 power, it is as quick as open sights and vastly more precise, allowing you to shoot with both eyes open. Your field of view is a full 100 feet at 100 yards, providing instant target acquisition and precise shot placement. It is designed for hunting dangerous game at close quarters, in dense brush, and for running targets. It is one of the few scopes in the world that will withstand repeated recoil from the largest magnum calibers

Nightforce NXS 2.5-10x24mm w/ NP1-LV 1/4moa 0-Stop. (Green Camo) this 1 of a kind Click to view or sight

2.5-10 x 24 NXS
Perhaps the most versatile, rugged and practical all-around scope on the market for the hunter and for general shooting. Those who thought a huge 40 or 50mm objective lens was essential for use in low light will find that the superb resolution of our lenses provides low-light performance comparable to—in most cases, exceeding—that of lesser quality scopes with massive objectives. The streamlined design of our 2.5-10 x 24 provides a wide range of mounting options and complements, rather than dominates, a fine hunting rifle. While it will easily absorb the pounding of heavy calibers, those who enjoy shooting small centerfire calibers will also appreciate a scope that does not overwhelm trimmer, elegant firearms. There are no parallax or focusing concerns, and its light weight makes it a perfect complement to a mountain rifle

I like the Tan one.

+1 on the tan...

I'd rather see more tan, less coyote or brown.

Still cool though

I love the idea and they look awesome.

Won't the pattern being that small just make the scope appear to be a brown tube at a distance? If the pattern were larger it might help to break up the outline more.

I say this, but emphasize that they look great.

I would still hit it with some Krylon to match the pattern and colors of the rest of the rifle.

Exactly, nice novelty but would prefer a solid color option instead.

Cool. Only if they offered them in Multicam...

Very cool. I saw the tan one in another thread but neither pic is working right now.

THESE ARE TRULY UNIQUE.

THE TAN ONE LOOKS A LOT LIKE THE FINISH ON THE TUBB 2000 TACTICAL RIFLE.

I WISH THEY OFFERED THAT LOOK ON THE BIGGER SCOPES!

GOOD SHOOTING,

WES

I like the tan one, but would prefer a plain tan/brown anodized 2.5-10

A great looking color and pattern...Indeed would REALLY like to see them in the larger scopes!

I have an older 2.5 x 10 and wish I had the coin for one of these newer ones with the zero stop and the camo, very nice indeed.

Thanks for all the responses. Maybe Nightforce will see the demand and offer the camo anodize on all their scopes.

Nice scope. Wish they gave more reticle options. Mil-dot or something a little less complex. I grasp the concept but after learning the mil concept its just a peference. That or just a plain reticle.

I didn't want to be too critical, but I too think the cammo pattern is too small.

too too too

I must be the only one that likes the green but i have to admit the tan looks good too. One other benefit i see to this is you can still read the numbers and lettering on the optic. If you painted it you would have to tape off the numbering and letters and you would be left with a black ring or spot there.

They offer Mil-Dot, NPR2, FC-2, and the NP1.

We are working on Nightforce to do this for the bigger scopes.

Green one is cool, but I have not a rifle worthy of such an awesome optic.

I really wanted to put the 2.5-10x24mm on my DPMS LR-308. The I really like the TAN Camo also.

Don't you think the 2.5-10x24mm is too little scope for an AR-10?

I feel a 2.5-10x would be a very good scope for a Precision AR weather it is a 223 or 308. I use a few 10x on my precision rifles. You do not feel that way?

It works fine for me. Great at closer range moving targets and 10X is fine out to 750ish. I have even shot mine out to 900 and 10X was alright.

I was looking for a lighter weight scope. The 3.5-15 would be nice but it is almost twice as heavy IIRC.

BTW-I had a FDE scope way before NF.
