Firearms and Accessories / Re: AR optic of choice
« on: May 22, 2020, 12:47:41 PM »
When I had the PA 1-6x SFP, the clarity and light transmission left a lot to be desired. Same for for the vortex strike eagle 1-6x. The next LPVO I’ll be looking to get is the Steiner P4Xi 1-4x. Lots of people say it’s the best glass you can get for the cost.

The P4Xi has almost doubled in cost recently.  I got mine for ~$400 and it's amazing at that price.  At $800 or $600 demo price you're better off saving a little more for a much better optic.

There's still space.  As long as the individual can do basic safety manipulation (4 Safety Rules, and can properly load and unload) they are welcome to attend.

There is another avenue.  The HDF facebook page will announce the event usually the next day after the announcement here.  You can try to sign up there as well but nothing is guaranteed.
