Use in afghanistan - Leupold Wind River Green Ring Sequoia 15-45x60mm Angled Spotting Scope with 45 deg Eyepiece 54534

This item served my needs perfectly. As an infantryman in the U.S. Army, I needed a light weight, compact spotting scope that could be easily concealed. The Green Ring did that and more. I also had the opportunity to use the 20-60 powered Green Ring. I found that it was too heavy and bulky for our use. The 15-45x60mm Was absolutely perfect! It was also a great replacement for the military issued Gold Ring, which has a mildot retical. I found that for observations, the mildot only got in the way while trying to identify targets at a distance, making the Green Ring even better. This product was worth more than it cost and was probably the best piece of tactical equipment I've ever baught. Customer support at Optics Planet was the most supportive I've experienced in ensuring that my purchase was delivered to me over seas.
Pros: Light weight, easy to handle, practical and clear.
Cons: no tactical case
