    F3R Mounts

    I run F3R mounts. They are solid. I’ve never had a problem and recommend them to anyone who wants a one piece mount.

    New Arken Offering

    In my opinion this scope competes with the $1000 scopes. It does not compete with the mid tier scopes. Nor should it for the price. As stated above, if you don’t look at the scope it feels just like a Razor Gen 2 or Athlon Cronus. Like I said in a previous post, it’s a Chinese made Cronus...

    New Arken Offering

    I finally made it to the range today. The weather was 15 degrees, gloomy, and not sunny at all. The Arken EP5 was tested against an Athlon Cronus, Ares ETR, and US Optics FDN 25. I know everyone one of these scopes cost more but that’s what I had. I have to say, I was very impressed with...

    Arken EP5 is here (pics)

    Maybe I’m confused…. Are you saying the image quality is better in the EP4 and SH4 than the EP5??? Then you must have your pictures messed up because the image is better on the EP5. It isn’t even close based on your pictures.

    New Arken Offering

    So I have to comment on the EP5. After all the hype on this I decided to buy one and take the chance. Hell, it was less than $500. I am extremely surprised at the quality, fit, and finish of this scope. To me, if feels like a Chinese made Cronus or Razor Gen II. The glass is surprisingly...

    Keep an eye out in the PX. You will be able to get a quality mount for less than $150.

    Arken sh4 4-14 ffp problems

    Do you work for Arken or something? Every post about them, you sing their praise. I’m not saying there is anything against that but damn…. To the OP, I’m glad they’ve been able to help you. That’s the sign of good customer service. I agree with the above and don’t expect perfection from...

    Just so everyone knows, Spark Munitions is not out of business. They were purchased by Lake Martin Machine Gun out of Alabama. I recently saw product for sale on the website.

    Yeah. This has to be fake. That is way to good of a price.

    Rifle Scopes Athlon Cronus gen 1 BTR Glass quality

    I’m betting something is wrong with the scope. I think the optical clarity is better than the Razor II.

    Rifle Scopes Athlon Cronus gen 1 BTR Glass quality

    I second that. Were you comparing it to a Theta? Milky as in what? The optical quality is quite good for its price. If it is noticeably that bad, you may need to call Athlon.

    USO, Leupold, vortex, or ???

    The best out of those scopes is easily the USO. However, I’m not sure that would be my choice for a hunting rifle. I would probably lean toward the Leupold Mark 5.

    Replacement for leupold mk4 8.5-25?

    I would guess around $750. But it will probably be a hard sale.

    Replacement for leupold mk4 8.5-25?

    You left out some details. Is it the the m1, m3,or m5 turrets? Is it a mil reticle with MOA dials? SFP or FFP. Midway is selling new ones, so that will at least put you in the ball park but without knowing the details….. I would say around $500.

    Any US Optics experts here?

    No idea where you get your information but US Optics was not sold to a Chinese company. If you are going to post something at least make sure it’s somewhat close to the truth.
