"I would rate the glass quality 8/10.(0 is completely opaque and 10 is completely distortionless <span style="font-weight: bold">and 100% light transmission</span>) Brightness is top notch, but clarity around the edges could be better."
</div></div>
FYI, maximum theoretical optical glass light transmission is around 98%.
So 8/10 would make 80% transmission, which actually would suck a** and is worse than bad.
As far as I know, even cheapest junk scopes should have +80% transmission.
Latest Zeiss HT lenses have 95% transmission- they are currently the best, or advertised best anyway.
Just to tell you bit about numbers behind terminology.
