Would you buy this scope?

[Castle Rock]

Damn. I'm ready to make a deposit today if that's the case.

If the mayhem that has been going on in this thread is any indication, a fair few have deposited already

Where can you buy a SWFA 3-9?

Until they get another drop at SWFA, keep an eye on the Classifieds here. They come up at reasonable prices fairly regularly.

I was debating selling mine. But after sending my Minox off for repair, I'll probably hang onto mine at least until I get the Minox back.

 

[ChrisAU]

So I may have missed it, what's the latest sitrep? When can I order one and when should I expect to get it? Would be a perfect scope for my Mid-Sept high country muley hunt in CO this year.

 

[BLJ]

Not literally ... but in one sense, yes - almost.

That’s kinda where I was at.

I didn’t know that Jedi mind tricks would help me kill stuff, until I did.

I could be wrong, and I'm sure not everyone will agree, but I think expecting to have this scope on a September hunt is extremely optimistic. I think Form said once the order is placed the manufacturer will take 6 months. So that's end of July if S2H ordered a first run today, and I don't think it's unreasonable to believe they won't be doing that for another month or two at least.

 

[Laramie]

Do we know where they will be sold? I would like to reserve a spot in line for one.

 

[Kyguy]

Appreciate the advice Form, I’ll still keep tabs on the project. Honestly. Might buy both. Sell the one I don’t like. Look forward to any future projects. I’d definitely throw some money at S2H for a 2-8

Given the swfa business model, you'll probably be able to get the s2h scope before they come back in stock on the 3-9.

That's why I hate when the SWFA recommendation keeps getting repeated. It's unobtainum unless you camp out on the internet.

Hell, I almost qualify as a Rokslide camper and I've never seen one available. I'm dropping MOA ,so I need two scopes to bridge the gap to the S2H release. I'm not dropping Minox coin so yeah I'll keep an eye on classifieds. I plan on picking up a SFP Triji as well.

Rats. I'm gonna wind up with an NX6 for that hunt I guess.

Post a WTB ad for one and I bet you have one in a week.

I have a very lightly used (range trips only) 3-9 HD if you are wanting one. I ordered a few when they had their last drop.

....and three scammers trying to sell you one from IP addresses in India.

 

[Shortschaf]

3-9's are on fleabay pretty much every week
SWFA clears out demo models a lot

 

[Q_Sertorius]

Sure. If you can’t screen those out with a phone call, I am not sure I would trust you with a firearm.

I get that for the fixed 6x, but their other scopes have been in stock and readily available for the last several months. The 3-9x sold out on their Black Friday deal, but up until then, they were in stock and ready to ship

 

[BCsteve]

Shipping will be expensive but at least you'll have a SWFA!

 

[nm.otter]

...but do keep your eyes open for a restock on the 6x MQ Gen2. Might show up in this thread, but no guarantees.

Yeah and these 2 are in stock and very good too. Sleepers really compared to the 2 that get purchased aggressively.
