Please add me to the preorder list. Have about 5000 dtac 6mm would like to ring

I have one, pm me a good offer

I also have a couple on top of SCAR 17s and we like them for some 3-gun action when there is a short range course stage. The Elcan is rock fricken solid for durability and we never had them lose zero. Customer support is also top notch. Mine had an issue with the magnification lever not being...
