Needed something to put on top of the heavy...

This is my first 'good' piece of glass and I am excited to sight it in and give it a try!

First impressions: Very, very well made, crystal clear, nice illumination and illum controls, turret movement is very precise.

Will have to keep you all updated...

I was so pumped that it came in today! I just threw it into my LaRue mount and had to mount it up to look through it! Can't wait to go sight it in this week...

Specs: Nightforce 2.5X10X32 w/zero stop turrets, mil dot reticle, illuminated. Crystal freaking clear glass!!!
 
Re: My first good piece of glass!! lol

Thanks for the feedback everyone! Yeah, I just loosely put in into the mount to mount it on the rifle so I could 'really' look through it! It will be leveled and mounted correctly...and the sticker will be removed, lol, tomorrow!

I'll keep ya posted!
 
Should be great.

Does your partner look at you weird when you take pictures of your toys to show random people on the internet? My bride cracks up everytime haha... she doesn't understand she's married to a man child :D
 
Regardless of whether you sell the glass or not, I hope that in the intervening months you've dirtied up your bench some. That's way too clean to be respectable.
 
Congrats! Getting good, new/new 4 you, glass is always fun. There's just one drawback... you've now oficially spoiled yourself for life. The "must have" a nice scope thing waxes & wanes, but when the desire comes back, it's like BAM - Malaria. And much like said illness, there's no cure :cool:. Not that most of us would want such if there was one.
ENJOY the new toy!
 
FNG: You know it! She like WTF, another toy?! LOL

din: I will attempt to do this and post up a pic for your approval! Haha!

elfster: I had just placed it into the rings and didn't have everything all hammered down yet-rings were still loose, and I just wanted to get the damn thing on there to see how it looked as well as be able to look through it! LOL So, it is now 'mounted' a lot further back on the rail.

UNCIVILIZED: I am starting to realize this! I think I have a sickness with no cure! Oh, and btw, I was mesmorized by your avatar for a good solid 5 minutes!

Thanks all!
