Rifle Scopes Sniper Scope ?

[Saiga76]

I have a membership with a magazine called the Sportsman Guide. The often advertise scopes that are brand named "Counter Sniper". They state they are U.S. government issued and that they are marked as such. They are advertising a 4-48x56mm for $900.00. I was curious if anyone had had experiences with these scopes? I'm kind of skeptical

You serious?

Re: Counter Sniper Scope ?

You should defiantly get one. Everyone knows Sportsmans guide only sells the highest quality Chinese shit.......ummmm, I'm mean Chinese products. If they're out of stock, which they might be cause they're pretty hot items, you can't go wrong with a Barska for a second choice.

Buy them out! Get every model you can and put them back for safe keeping. They are worth their weight in gold. You would be the fort knox of CS scopes.

Re: Counter Sniper Scope ?

Trust you skepticism.

If you search, you will find all kind of stuff on here about them. But in a nutshell, they are not what they say they are and are an inferior scope. $900 can be invest elsewhere much better. Don't get taken by the print up they write.

And just in case your are still not reading me loud and clear . . . . Don't buy a Counter Sniper.

Re: Counter Sniper Scope ?

Come on......he wasn't gonna spend $900 on a scope anyway.

Wild shot in the dark there but I'll bet I'm right.

Dude, just buy a SS for $600 and go shoot.

You naysayers are wrong about CS! I've only had to send mine back 13 times!!!!
Buy one or two. It's the best bang for the buck

i hear you can take the internals out and replace with a rolled up intertube and it makes a swell fleshlight reproduction, and the turrets will tickle your pickle when cranked on

The Super Sniper has the upper hand against his nemesis the Counter Sniper.

Re: Counter Sniper Scope ?

I went by their booth at SHOT show and was pretty impressed. Glass looked like the bottom of a coke bottle, and the reticle looked like a meth heads christmas tree, but their sales people were interesting.

Re: Counter Sniper Scope ?

I had no plans on buying it, a little too much magnification for me. I was reading my new SG and I thought I would ask. Guess I shouldn't have

I have purchased several small items from SG and have been pleased. I was curious about their scope quality! I'm leaning towards the Vortex line of scopes at this time, possibly Burris?

Re: Counter Sniper Scope ?

I was gonna spend around 400 bucks for a scope, but I'm waiting for the counter counter sniper scopes to come out. I want a scope that ensures that I can counter the counter snipers. I want a reticle in a reticle in a reticle.

The zombies are so slow that I only need a reticle in a reticle, but you never know when one of them is counter sniping.

I appreciate your post and the video you provided regarding my question. It's what I kind of figured, but I thought I would ask the pro's to make sure. Thank you again sir.

Or maybe some folks would just rather be spoon fed....

Re: Counter Sniper Scope ?

I had a counter sniper scope on one operation I ran. It worked pretty well, I was holding about 5 moa at 50 feet. But then another sniper counter snipered me and the 6 mm airsoft pellet hit my hand and the hydrostatic shock traveled into the scope and cracked it. Oh well. Gonna go with ncstar next time.

Re: Counter Sniper Scope ?

Don't let these internet warriors and gear queers tell you not to buy a CS. It is the best scope on the market. I had a guy talking smack at the range about "how his NF was better than my CS". So I hit the QR on my Larue mount walked over to his little NF and beat the shit outta it with my CS. Needless to say he was all pissed b/c I bent his pussy NF into a horse shoe. I was all like talk shit bitch. Remounted my CS on my AR dialed to 400 yards and shot a acorn outta that dickhead squirrles mouth.

Name another scope that can do that haters...

The first time I saw this reticle I thought it was a joke. Seeing it again I thought no, cant be, no one would do that. After a quick google of counter sniper reticle I have all the info I need on this wonderful new concept.....

My head hurts & I need a drink

Re: Sniper Scope ?

Oh man gotta read the entire listing here:

http://www.sportsmansguide.com/net/cb/co...t.aspx?a=650801

For the optics gurus here WTF is:

"24-step Bertrillium-Zantitium™ multi-coated optics with HydroShear™ water / ice displacement coating "??

Still trying to wrap my head around this one too:

"Variable red / green / black illuminated reticle"

Can't figure out what you get with an illuminated black reticle....I gotta stop, hurts from laughing....

Re: Sniper Scope ?

No, not another counter sniper thread. Well, I'll come back after 2 a.m. to get some good laughs.
