Reviews & Ratings for Trijicon AccuPower RS-20 3-9x40mm Rifle Scope, 1" Tube, Second Focal Plane (SFP) — 14 reviews — Page 1

As a long-time supporter of Trijicon, it's disappointing to see the AccuPower RS-20 3-9x40mm Rifle Scope's glass sourced from Asia, which hints at prioritizing cost over quality. This decision seems to reflect a concerning trend where brands potentially compromise their well-earned reputation for maximizing profits.

Though the build of the RS-20 appears solid, the choice to outsource a crucial component like glass raises questions about the overall quality and reliability expected from Trijicon. Such strategies may offer short-term financial gains but risk long-term customer trust and the brand's integrity.

The performance of the RS-20 is satisfactory but lacks the exceptional clarity I’ve valued in Trijicon's offerings. This shift towards cost-effectiveness over quality may not only affect the product's reception but also the brand's loyal customer base's trust.

While global sourcing is a reality for many companies, it's essential for Trijicon to balance cost-saving measures with the high standards they're known for. It's my hope that this represents a one-off decision rather than a new direction for Trijicon, as maintaining their commitment to excellence is crucial for sustaining customer loyalty and brand prestige.

The good news. A truly nice rifle scope... clear with all the fine attributes, excellent reticle with bullet drop and windage compensating capabilities, nice turrets, good eye relief and the illuminated center is amazing. For most anyone else, this is a five star optic.

Now the bad news... the scope looked exceptionally large on my Henry Long Ranger, especially the ocular assembly. Oh, I could have made it work and considered living with it or swapping optics with one of my bolt rifles, however, all the bolts are equipped with really nice glass and are finely tuned, so no, not swapping.

This left only one option, return the Trijicon. I lamented its departure, however, I need a less bulky scope.

If you have center fire bolt rifles, this is the scope for you. It will look right at home and, I'm convinced, will serve you well for a lifetime.

I first became familiar years ago with Trijicon's Very Dependable ACOG'S. They never let me down in many extreme stress situations. These people know what they are doing and I am very gratefull for Trijicon's products.

I needed a scope for my Winchester XPR in 6.5 Creedmoor. This will be a hunting rifle for dear and such. I am so pleased with my purchase of this scope. The reticle is perfectly illuminated. The optics on this one inch tube are equal to my Sightron's SIII, and Zeiss V4 Conquest. At full mag, there is no fogging or distortion. The eye box is not picky and with good eye relief at all power settings. At 3 power, I can get into the sight picture very fast. It is an excellent set up for both eyes open target acquisition. The same as I used on the ACOG's.

The MOA SFP illuminated reticle is clean and well thought out. I will be able to hold over at 500 yards and also make quick snap shots in close. The elevation travel is 60 MOA total, 30 up and 30 down. The turrent caps are metal, not plastic, a nice touch. The turrents offer clean tactile adjustments with a simple zero reset. The finish is Mil-Spec hard anodized. I am confident that this scope will hold up well in tough environments.

This is a high quality product and an excellent value. Even the box for the scope had a full foam insert for the scope cut perfectly to cradle the scope during transit. Very good manual and scope cover. You can tell they have a lot of pride in their products. Get signed up for dvor.c...

Haven’t sighted the scope in yet but it is super clear and very good at low light I wrapped mine in vinyl and mounted on a tikka 308 great price for a great scope can’t wait to bore sight and sight in gonna be soon for sure

This is a very good scope. Clearer and brighter than my other scopes and I have some quality scopes. I like the size of it as well. I’ve only had this one for a short while but have other versions that are more than 10 years old and still going strong.

Let me start by saying this is my first scope from Trijicon. I have used their night sights on pistols but never a scope. I am very impressed with the quality of this scope. The class is clear edge to edge and even at full power the image stays crisp. I place this scope on a Daniel Defense DDM4V11 Pro and its amazing. This scope paired with the 18 inch barrel on my Daniel Defense is great. Couldn’t ask for anymore out of this scope.

Good glass would rate as good or better than Leopold vx3 works good on my 223 bolt rifle the illumination is very good with plenty power range and solid engagement as far as the reticle MOA it is easy and fast if you know your rifle a little more precise than most bdcs but not as precise as using turrets one gripe I have is the clicks are not very stiff kinda light but they work on this scope bc of the capped turrets also the finish will scratch easy

I have to say this is my first scope purchase so I didn't have a lot to compare it to however I have now had this item for one year and I can definitely say its worth the money. The salesmen did everything he could to match the pricing and I was very impressed.
I mounted this scope on two different AR15 type rifles, one a carbine, and another a SPR mk12 type rifle. When shooting from a bench this scope allows me to punch 1 MOA 5 round groups with ease(if I do my part) the reticle was easy to understand, it allows me to range distance without a range finder, and it is a very very fine reticle. The glass is gorgeous compared to the burris and vortex glass I have used in the past. One of several complaints about the scope, it is sometimes difficult to see the reticle during certain lighting. This isn't a huge issue, however it is annoying given this companies reputation. The illuminated reticle is very nice at low light however it doesn't help at all during that day, not surprising though.
I do not like how the scope turrets are not exposed. Not a big issues since the reticle pretty much gives you the ability to utilize hold overs, but I do find it annoying to not be able to spin in my dope for a certain load at a certain distance. Another final complaint, the adjustments on the turret are not real defined. This is kind of a mid range scope so I expected them to skim somewhere however this is somewhat unacceptable for a tactical type scope. Again not to much of a biggie co...

Good product. Well made with great features for the price point. Just mounted on Kimber 280 AI but haven't sighted in, so the proof will be in the pudding. Light gathering abilities was impressive when general viewing at dusk. Images were clear and crisp.

Amazing quality lens that allows you to see the objects really clear. I really like this scope and will
For sure buy more in the future. I use this scope on my mark 47 mutant and not only does it look sweet on there but works perfectly. I can't wait to buy the bigger version scope for my 308 precision rifle.
