This handguard "kinda" gives you the concept of the Sig Rattler Canebrake but does not accept the Sig 7.62TI-QD suppressor which defeats the purpose of an extended handguard. Its a no for me but might work for others as long as you have a can that will fit inside the handguard and allow you to install and remove it without removing the handguard each time.

I have two of the original vortex SPARC and they are still going strong. I decided to purchase the new SOLAR and have not been disappointed. The mounting system is a vast improvement as well as being able to use after market mounts. The ability to use different height mounts is also a plus. If you are on the fence about getting one just do it...with the customer service and quality you will not be disappointed.

I have multiple Vortex rifle scops but have always leaned toward the Razor line because I was unsure of the quality of the Strike Eagle line. After purchasing this scope I decided to purchase a couple more just like it. I started by using this optic on my Henry X 45-70. I shoot this rifle suppressed and unsuppressed with multiple 45-70 loads. Most are around the 400 gr load which has a significant snap. The optic has held up and not lost zero. After having success with this scope I decided to purchase a couple more. This is a great scope for the price. I can purchase multiple of these for the price of a Razor and I have been using them to outfit rifles that are no "precision shooters". I am currently using this optic on my Henry X 45-70, Marlin Dark 30-30, and Ruger 350 Legend. The one power is very clear and even under daylight conditions, I have been able to see the lighted reticle without issues. The throw lever is smooth and with the integrated throw level knob switching between different powers is simple. If you are looking for a good quality rifle scope that won't break the bank...This one is a winner in my book.
