Buy recommendations LPVO recommendations?

Post image

Hey everyone, very well considering picking up the mk 15 when it comes out but don’t have much experience in the LPVO field and looking for recommendations. Not looking to totally break the bank so maybe around $500ish or so and I’d mostly be shooting out to 100 yards or less with it, thanks!

I just finished looking at a few LPVO options for the same thing. I ended up buying the Vortex Venom 1-6. To me, it has much better glass than the strike Eagle at 1x and max magnification. Also the combo with cantilever for $500 is a smoking deal. There's definitely better and more expensive options and I will upgrade it to the PST Gen 2 1-6 I really wanted to give the Venom a shot

There weren't .any options locally for me to see first hand. But even for the $500 price tag, it was better than the $750 strike Eagle and $650 Sig Sauer one. I hate buying optics that I can't see first hand, otherwise I would have just ordered something.
