U.S. Optics was contracted by the USMC to change some of the MST-100's over to MST-150's to fill their need for optics for the Barret. I can't tell you exactly how many were done, but it was not a bunch by any means. Hope that helps! John III

I am not sure if they are going to release this model in the USA, probably don't want to compete with the US version for sales. I can tell you the FOV at 1X is pretty good, no curvature of field to speak of. John III

Hey Everyone, going out on a limb here, does anyone have a Revic scope that I could borrow/look at for a couple of days? I don't want to shoot it, just look at it. I am South of Dallas area now, but if you can ship to me I will pay for all costs, or send a FedEx label. I will return something...

I have one of the EURO models here with the fiber dot illumination and it is pretty bright. John III

For that price I would snatch it up! You can get another 3 hole cap for zeroing from them I'm sure, if not I probably have one laying around somewhere. I think the screw you are speaking about is actually on the magnification adjustment ring not the parallax adjustment. This IS a normal screw...

I like blondes with blue eyes.... Either way you cant go wrong. John III

Hey Everyone, After a short stint with a POS manufacturer, I am now back to the Alpha gig. After I turned this over to Chris about 5 years ago so I could concentrate on USO, I have now decided to come back and get this thing running smoothly. As you all know Chris has a full time job at the...

Rambob, 1st Class Tactical (Lazy21 here on the Hide) has the SR8s scopes in stock as well as Tacticla Firearms. We willl start shipping the SR8c models to the dealers in the next couple of weeks. John III

One thing to consider, the USO is a TRUE 1X, and it is made in the USA. John III

Re: U.S. Optics SR-8 BigJimFish Shot Report. I was amazed at the comments about the blue LED at SHOT. I didn't think that it would be received as well as it was. Anyone who gets one of these with a blue LED in it, I would like to hear your opinions after some use. Thansk, John III

Re: MST-100s new Larger font? whats the deal? The serial number might be a tad larger, but the "USMC SNIPER" should be the same as th epast runs. I personally engrave the serial numbers myself and I didn't make any changes. The only thing that might have happened is the machine got bumped...

Re: Where are the scopes made I think you meant LOH Glass.... John III

Re: Best Eyebox on a high power scope Most all optical companies that I have seen use the term "exit pupil" to describe the diameter of the area projected on your eye at the given eye relief. Just was curious because the image projected onto the eye is anything but a box, it is a circle...

Re: USO spotting scopes BTW- our FOS (Field Observation Scope) has had a change made to it that has opened up the FOV by about 20+%, but it still has retained the 3" of eye relief. John III
