Awesome eye relief, awesome clarity... and samson's warranty is #1 - Samson RAM-3XM-SMAG 3.5x Magnifier 3.5x35mm Obj Black

I researched magnifiers quite a bit before buying the Samson to go behind an EOTech EXPS2. Was going to pull the trigger on an EOTech G33 magnifier but couldn't swallow the price tag that came with it. The Samson has an MSRP of $389 I believe, so Optic Planet's price is awesome, especially if you have a 10% coupon :-)

The clarity of the Samson is phenomenal (Japanese glass) and the eye relief is one of the better out there (2.6"). The mount it comes with (IMHO) is one of the best, only second to the EOTech G33 mount (my favorite). Samson's mount has an option riser included so it can work with plenty of RDS/HWS. As a side note, Samson actually manufactured the mounts EOTech used in their previous version magnifier, the G23. That mount is the same mount Samson now uses on their magnifier since EOTech now is using something slightly different on their G33.

What made my decision was 2 things. First was a review of the Samson vs the AimPoint I saw - the Samson shined (I've provided a link to the YouTube review below). The other deciding factor was Samson's warranty. I don't think I've come across a warranty statement quite like this before. Here is is, straight from their website: "At Samson, we stand firmly behind the quality of our products. If your Samson handguard, mount, sights or accessories don’t perform, we will repair or replace it for free. We don't ask for a proof of purchase or warranty card, we just make things right. We do this because we maintain the highest quality standards in the industry, and we’re confident your Samson made product won't fail you."
