Not unless Scott at libertyoptics.com opens back up. IMO the Razor was one of the better sub-2k options. I still own a couple, and I prefer the atacr for the same money.

Both great Optically with a slight edge to the Razor, The NF paralax is quick and easy, also the NF is a little lighter. Not a fan of the Razor turrets, the NF is just better turret wise for me.
Not to throw a grenade in here but I think the Element Theos beats both those optics.
I’m in analysis paralysis with these 2 scopes. I don’t feel like I can justify a zco right now so NF and G3R are my options. I looked at element as well but I’ve never had the chance to interact with one in person. I can get the razor for slightly less than the NF but the difference isn’t large enough to swing my decision..
It's difficult when your hard earned cash is on the line, right!
I have had all three, I still have the Theos on my SRS, great for 338lm with it's 36x mag and it's still usable at the top, I am considering picking up a second one, the prices on those are great. Also the tracking on the Theos is perfect, some other reviewers have said it's be best tracking optic they have tested. I felt like the NF kinda lost me after 30-32x. You can't go wrong with either three, however I will say it again. I do not like the RG3 turrets or it's weight. I did a comparo between the Razor and the Theos, they are made at the same factory, and are dimensionally identical, I think it's the same tube actually and some of the same lense elements so both offer excellent glass. The Theos turrets are honestly the best next to the TT, so easy to set and without a tool. Somehow the Theos is lighter however. The nice thing about NF however is that they have a wider verity of reticles, if you like simple the Mil-R or Mil-C is clean and easy. I would put it like this- the Theos and NF are equal but for different reasons, the Vortex would be my third pick of the three. If warranty is a big factor for you then my clear pick would be NF before the Theos as NF will fix your stuff state side, where the Element Theos will get fixed here as well but is a much smaller outfit at least in the states. The Vortex has a killer warranty but once again it would be my last pick for the other reasons I mentioned earlier.
here is a very extensive review of the Theos.
