Bargain price expensive quality - Patriot Optics Prowess 1-10x30mm Rifle Scope

I own two of these scopes. The first one I bought over a year ago to put on my AR 15 and it had the MIL Dot reticle pattern. I recently purchased an AR 10 and decided to purchase this scope for that rifle also. The new scope has a different reticle pattern than the first, I spoke to the owner of the company and they made the change to the new reticle about 6 months ago. While the reticle has changed, the performance of the scope is just as great as the first one I purchased. I also own another 1-10x from one of the big name scope companies that costs over three times the price of this scope, and this scope performs just as good as the more expensive one. The lenses are very clear and the 1x setting provides true 1x both eyes open shooting. Both the picture and reticle stay sharp at all magnification settings. Having green illumination in addition to the red is also nice added feature. The turrets have a solid feel to them and they hold zero perfectly on both the AR 15 and the AR 10. The eyebox on the scope is very forgiving and provides efficient run and gun operation in a 3 gun type setting along with the included throw lever. As stated before the quality of the scope is great, and now after my second purchase, I can say the quality is repeatable between the two scopes. If your looking for a quality scope that is also friendly on your cash flow I would check these guys out.
