Restocked SWFA 3-9x42 Gen 1

[Cantharellus]

I've been waiting for one of these for a rifle build and SWFA said they would be back in Feb. I checked the website this morning and they're in stock. Figured I'd share for anyone else that's looking. Was hoping to see the Gen 2 upgrades on them, but I'll take it!

I missed out, but use "cyclops" for a discount.

SWFA 3-9x42 SS HD - MIL-Quad Reticle, 30mm Tube, .1 MIL Clicks, FFP

In sub-zero temperatures or searing desert heat (-50 degrees to +130 degrees Fahrenheit, and altitudes of 30,000 feet to depths of 15 feet in salt water) the waterproof, shockproof, fogproof SS performs. Whatever the weapon, from .223 to .50 BMG, the SS handles the recoil. Whatever the target...

Will be interesting to see how long they last.

Thanks for the heads up, ordered one.

Nearly pulled the trigger on two of them but holding out for the get 2 fixed 6x they have promised. Have 3 rifles that need new glass that will hold zero. Maybe a 4th coming. At least this covers one of them.

Holy crap. I can’t believe these are back in stock.

Thanks for the heads up.

Well this post just cost me $609...

 

[Cantharellus]

Glad some folks have been able to get these. I know I've been "patiently" waiting. Hah!

I just got a call from them—backorder from 1/23!

 

[JDMBEND]

So they are now on back order? Bad reading comprehension

 

[JDMBEND]

ordered. Hope it live up to the hype. Going on my shorty 6 cm truck gun, so it will be tested.
Any scope cover recommendations?

 

[bombhunter]

Ordered as well and already have a shipping notification. Groovy

It's interesting that an SWFA 3-9X popped up on GunBroker last week, and the auction ended last night. I bid up to $600 but lost to a $605 bid. The GunBroker shipping was $30. From SWFA, it was sub-$10. I got lucky.

I just got a call from them to fulfill an order I placed 3/2023!

That was me....kicking myself a little bit this morning

Thanks, ordered one.

I just ordered one as well. Thanks for the heads up!

The last time they got a shipment, a couple years ago, I had several on backorder for over a year. Called in and changed it to four for $450 a piece. Ended up getting "lost" at the Dallas mail center. Took a month just to get my money back.

This time I figured I won't be greedy and only order one. Maybe I'll actually get it this time?

That sounds very frustrating. Mine already shipped, so I'm hopefully for a quick turnaround and no issues! Haha.
