Rex's FIRST LOOK at the new EP8 1-8x28 FFP LPVO - 34mm Tube LPVO from Arken Optics. For Arken Optics use code "REX" to MATCH the BEST DEAL out there! Here is the link: arkenopticsusa.com/tiborasaurusrex There is also a NEW reticle out, it's the KLG FFP MIL which is a slick MRAD grid design. Check it out.
The LPVO has long since earned its place, bridging the gap from holographic/ red-dot types to high magnification optics not traditionally well suited in CQC situations. With ever increasing capability, the LPVO has become a staple allowing tactical teams and competitive shooters to get the most out of any particular member, instantly. The EP8 1-8’s thin edges and wide FOV make this true 1X perfect for close quarters, with a quick throw of the lever to 8X increasing effective range at a moments notice.
Reticle Details:
Evaluation of the KL-BOX BDC reticle here: youtu.be/daI-rlDNMlo?si=SnlBsZAmX0Yv2pLK
KL Box ('KL'= 'Known Length'. Pronounced: "KILL BOX") This incredibly intuitive, patent pending BDC reticle was designed to increase effectiveness under high stress environments. The outside numbers extending diagonally below centerline correlate to distance in yards.
'Frame and Fire!"
By framing a silhouette target in the appropriate KL box, the user is able to rapidly identify distance by simultaneously using shoulder width and torso height to calculate point of aim. With combat effectiveness in mind, this reticle allows for easy interpolation for any distance within the intended operational limits of a 1-8 allowing the user to acquire and process information faster and put effective rounds down range.
