Aimpoint Pro

There are many different optical instruments which go well with different weapons, and pistol scopes are the best for small arms, especially pistols. A good pistol scope can be determined based on some simple criteria. For starters, the eye-box should be generous enough to allow flexibility and comfort. Secondly, the scope should provide extended eye relief.

The optics should also have adequate brightness, and the crystal-clear optics, much needed for the modern, high powered hand-guns. The following brands of pistol scopes have been tested and found to conform to these standards, in addition to having spectacular features of their own.

Aimpoint Pro

This excellent, Patrol Rifle optic has been made with the challenging conditions faced by the law enforcement groups in mind. It features a circuit of high efficiency, which can be switched on and left working for more than two years running. This circuit powers a light-dot that helps in the aim of the target at different distances. Moreover, the front lens of the sight has a band – bass coating, which enables the use of any night vision devices with it. In addition, both the front and the rear lenses are built deep into the Pro’s body, protecting it against the harsh recoils and other damages resulting from scratches and fingerprints.

The resulting effect is that with different zoom ratios available, one can achieve a perfect hit from the most optimum range available for the gun. With the durable lens cover, the lens themselves are kept clean and as good as new.
