Rifle Scopes Need Info On Nightforce F1 3.5-15x50

[PistonPete]

Does anyone here have one of these scopes ? if yes, can you verify that the scope comes with Picatinny/MIL-STD-1913 ring mounts ? the Nightforce web site says: ""The F1 ships with a set of Nightforce's superb Ultralight titanium rings.""

a fellow member has one of these scopes for sale, i want to buy it and want verification of the rings being included, he says the box is still factory sealed and wants it to stay that way for a buyer.

Thank you all for your input.

If they're in there, they're 1" high pic-rail 30mm rings. I have no idea how to tell if they're actually in there or not, though. Mine were.

The scopes come with a pair of the Nightforce Ultrlight rings 1" in height. They fit fine on picatinny bases. They also come with a sunshade.

Rob, do you know if there is somewhere to order a shorter sunshade for the NXS?

Not sure if they make one but a dremel tool and a steady hand can make the one you have shorter

Any small mistakes will be covered by the butler creeks.

It's just a sunshade. Not like you're hacking into the scope tube LOL I have no problem with the length of the F1 sunshade myself.
