    A bipod is just chunks of metal and that’s fine to buy cheap but optics are about clarity clean glass end being able to see down range and that’s a whole Nother story.

    Check out the primary arms branded scopes. Good scopes for the money. The basic vortex scopes are also decent.

    It is just metal but the attention to detail is amazing. Lots of little bits and pieces that go into it. Hasn’t failed. And I’m sure the one I have is one of the cheapest on the market

    That’s about all you can use it for, ideally. It’s not too comfortable carrying that around while hunting.

    Definitely take a good look at vortex offerings, for an AR platform you don’t need high power, and if the vortex is part of the VIP warranty program you get a free replacement/repairs for any reason, you could purposely run over the optic with a dump truck and they would replace it.

    After shopping for awhile this and the price made me decide to go with Vortex. The 50mm lets in so much more light!

    Yes I own 4 Sig products, a kilo 2000 rangefinder that is effen awesome, an Oscar monapod that works great and 2 scopes and there a very clean glass. My nabor was looking though my rangefinder and started laughing, he said it was clearer than half the scopes he owned.

    The 3 x 9-40 whiskey3 in the top photo with the hellfire dot which is awesome by the way, I got for $115 on eBay.
    The tang 4 in the bottom pic was just under $700.
    Shop around on eBay, they really are cheaper than what they say on their website
