You and me both. Every time they give me a date I keep thinking maybe they will really come out this time. If there is ever to be a vaporware awards for optics I will nominate the S&B 1-8x.

Seems like vapor.
I have lusted for this forever. Hopefully it makes it eventually.
I'm going with the Vortex Razor 1-6 until. If it were available in mil, it'd be perfect.

I have one on order, direct through my S&B military contract contact, and as of a month ago, the direct wording was after March 2013 at earliest.

Re: S&B 1-8X24 Short Dot availability?
I'd heard so many revised, delayed release dates on this scope I finally gave up and bought a MKVIII 1.1-8.
I'm normally a S&B snob but the Leupold MKVIII 1.1-8 is a VERY nice piece of glass. Better yet, you can actually get one.

Buy a USO 1-8x....they(S&B) were all over the USO per Lowlight this year, safe to say this is currently the way to go.

US Optics 1-8 is the way to go.
Youll pay for it, but the usefullness of this magnification range from bayonet to 800 yards makes it worth it.

Sir,
Lazy 21 has my order for a 1-8X with daylight red dot and blue illum C2 reticle. It will be finished in FDE.
If you expedite I promise to post pictures of the scope here mounted on my LMT. I wont even charge for the free advertising. I wont be responsible for the drooled on keyboards either.

Like
large tube
light weight
TMR D
illuminated D
Dislike
Not daylight visible on 1X
Christmas tree effect on etchings
I really wanted a 1-8
