Just got my F1 with Np-RF1 reticle. I originally purchased a US Optics TPAL 3-17x44.
I cancelled my purchse becuase BJ at 3rd Gen Shooting Supply was selling this lightly used F1 for almost $1,000 dollars cheaper than what I was paying for the USO. I paid $1900 shipped for the F1 and it came with rings. The USO was $2740 without rings.
I was nervous as to whether I made the right choice but after receiving my F1 I'm completely satisfied. This thing looks brand new, not a single ding or scratch. There's not even a hint of ring marks. I love the feel, the look, the clarity of the glass, and the positive turrets.
I have had the oppertunity to look through some nice glass and even though the F1 is not an S&B it is extremely clear. I feel for a work/Tactical rifle this scope will serve me very well. For the money I don't think you can beat NF.
Also, BJ was excellent to work with. Called him up and it was a done deal. Shipped it out the same day and had comformation email within minutes after ordering. He is GTG, and seems like a cool guy.
My view may change once it's on the gun but I doubt it.
