Would you buy this scope?

[HighUintas]

Yikes. C'mon rokskope for $1000!

 

[Runwilderness]

Since I’d chimed in on the off topic 6x discussion:

Yes. Preferably $1000ish. My primary concern would be timing, as I’m in the market to change out my current scope and I’d prefer to not buy/sell immediately nor wait years for this scope to appear on the market.

SO @Ryan Avery on a scale of 0-10 what's traction on this idea looking like with someone to actually make it (in any near timeframe)? 0 being pipe dream, 10 being you're proof reading a product announcement. We in the 0-2 realm still or is there movement towards this maybe being a reality?

Should’ve gone a 0-10 “likely to do presale” scale instead.

The original scope in this post sounds dope. Depending on price point, I'd be down for one.

Sidebar, I too dream of a fixed 6x scope with a BDC reticle of some kind. Dear Santa......

Just kidding. ZERO.

Yes I would grab one.

 

[pathnz]

The OP is approx what I've been asking for since about 2010


No-one has yet made it


So yeah I'd be interested

 

[doc holiday13]

44mm is the smallest i'd go.
Seems like a good scope for a 22 or 6mm calibler

 

[waterengineer]

I would buy one to try if the price is around $1,000 and would buy a few more if I liked the first one.

id be in if it could ship to canada

I have the same question, because if not close I will be picking up another scope in the next several months. So far, I really like the RS1.2 that arrived yesterday. Not prefect, but getting closer than I expected.

I’d be interested in giving this scope a shot. I’m curious if it’s actually going to happen.

Also curious for the same reason you mentioned. I will be needing 2 more scopes in the next 2-3 months. Yes I am reviving this. Any updates on traction?

 

[Formidilosus]

Yes there is movement. No, you won’t be able to buy it in 2 months. If it goes through, there will be a lot of testing in the open.

I’d guess closer to 2-3 years.

Is there any timeline established for when we'll get to know if it's happening and what the target sale date will be?

We’ll all patiently wait for the pre order

But I am excited to see what materializes first. The Rokskope or the SWFA 3-9 availability. I’ll also be curious to see if a second scope line gets released as the “MooShaney” option with a 2x zoom range going from 16x-32x.

 

[4th_point]

If it’s around the 1000 dollar point absolutely I’ll take 3. If it’s 2500 I’ll pass and keep my tenmile

I’d buy 2 at the $1000 mark. $1500 is a little harder to swallow at 50% increase

I would also be in at around the $1000 price point so I could buy 2 or 3 to start.

Would be interested in several at $1000 or under....

I’d buy this in a heartbeat, half of a heartbeat if price is closer to $1000.

As described by Ryan, yes, I would buy one.

At $1500, no, probably not. I would have to wait for a sale or used. Under $1000, yea, I would buy one.

Presale at $800, I might buy two.

4-12 or 4-16 preferred.

Dialing capability past 600 preferred.

Looked over most responses on all 10 pages, I may be the minority but after buying a SWFA, Trijicon and Razor (model not tested by Form). I 100% want “good glass”. The glass in the SWFA was so inferior and at 100 yards the heat waves on the bench was horrible causing a shift in group size.

I don’t care what Form says- there are situations and hunts where good clear usable glass is warranted. You need to clearly be able to see what you are trying to hit.

This coming from a guy in CA where heat waves and hot weather are the norm for hunts.

@ $1500 likely wouldn’t buy one, at $1000 it would be a possibility if it has what is mentioned above.

1500, no.
1200, I'd try 1
1000, would have multiple

<$1000 yes, over $1000 maybe.

-$1000-1200 price point

I’d be in for 5

That’s about where I’m at too. $1000 for a scope is my absolute max. I can get an swfa and cut off the windage turret and make a diy zero stop for $600.

Yes. Preferably $1000ish. My primary concern would be timing, as I’m in the market to change out my current scope and I’d prefer to not buy/sell immediately nor wait years for this scope to appear on the market.

As described I'd consider one at $1500.... Probably get one at some point and maybe a second down the line.

At $1000 I'd get 2 as quickly as possible.

Quick search of the posts in this thread shows that several members would buy several scopes, if closer to $1000.

Not trying the derail the mission here, but that would be encouraging simply in terms of volume or as a follow up model.

I have no data to support this, but my guess is ~$1200 would be the max for many people, with 12x. Especially outside of the Rok fan club.
