2017 Shot Show!

$1600 retail, 31.8 oz., HCD (angle comp), tripod adaptable, and scan mode.

Matt and I weren't too impressed with the glass in these. The rangefinder function seems decent.

Probably compares to the bushnell RF bino?

Interesting lil spotter Instagram

Matt & Justin, if you get a chance can you take a look at this Kowa 50mm tsn-553. I have a feeling it'll blow the Vortex away but doubt the 45x top end of the zoom is usable.

Thanks for that. I'm looking for some rain gear that works, first and foremost, but that's light weight.

Prominar 55 with fluorite crystal objective. Specs aren't finalized but will have 15-45 eyepiece.

 

[Justin Crossley]

SOG's new multi tools.

I'd also be interested in the Kowa. The specs I've seen are conflicting. 50mm or 55mm?

What are your initial impressions? Do they have a release date?

 

[Matt Cashell]

SJK came out with a line of perception DST camo and clothing.

"The Fix" rifle by Q LLC might be interesting. Supposed to be a sub 6 lb chassis bolt gun. Haven't heard of anything else like that.

Can't find Q LLC here at the show.

Does that use the same eye piece as the 77 and 88mm or is it different ?

Judging by the range I assume different.

Does it have pure fluorite like the 88?

Different. They are still finalizing the eyepiece design.

The eyepiece will not be removable.

The objective will use a crystal element, like the 88.

Any idea if we'll be able to get one before the fall hunting season.

Awesome, thanks Matt.

I think it may be at the eotech booth in the main LE room.

Firstlite update videos are in work. I'll try to get them finished up and posted tonight.

Ronb,

I would say it's going to be 55mm as all their other scopes have the first two numbers as the objective size and the last number represents either angled (3) or straight (4).

Interesting to say the least.

Agreed, and the instagram post earlier stated the weight was 28oz. Don't know if that's correct though.

 

[Justin Crossley]

Sig video is on it's way as well.
