Optic Recommendations
So I am looking for a new scope probably to purchase around autumn. Here is what I am looking for:
1. Mid range variable (4-24x mag range and anything in between as long as the max magnification is at least 12x).
2. Non Chinese
3. Around $500.
4. Preferably a 30mm tube, but 1" tube is acceptable.
5. Rugged.
Use is on a 5.56 AR set up for more precision shooting. This rifle is just a paper puncher, though I like all of my equipment to be SHTF ready so take that into consideration.
Don't need anything immediately as what I have works in the mean time and I need to save a few hundred bucks.

$500, I'd get a Vortex Viper PST or their HS-T line.
Made in the Philippines.
Used is really a good way to go when you're on a budget. Optics just don't hold their value on the secondary market.

A steal if you could bust your budget slightly.

But...I can definitely deal with a few scuffs for a good value on the used market.

Refurb here, but with Vortex, all warranty and everything carries over. Great way to save money on their products.Graphic Designer

Sometimes good deals on the SWFA demos.
