I wish they could pull off a scope like the 3-15x Vortex LHT or Leupold VX-5 HD. Both of those scopes are nice and light weight and offer great versatility for distances. You can hunt with those scopes in the woods (3x FOV) or take them to the range to 500 yards (Best I got in my area). I am eyeing both of those scopes to replace a Diamondback 4-16x. The Arken 4-16x sounds like quality and the price is right... but is it worth carrying that extra pound on the hunting rifle. I just might try it. But, 4x magnification is a bit much in the woods. I'd love to see a 3-15x hunting/ tactical scope. Many dudes just have one bolt gun... a scope that can do it all would sell!
@Gary Marchlewicz I’m not trying to take anything away from Arken, I love both of my scopes from them. Take a look at the Riton x5 Primal or x3 Conqueror, both are 30mm main tubes & use Japanese glass.
i focus on sharingmyexperienceandscope with friends, let them see or try the optic to maybe check out Arken not sure they need my help But i mean i tell everyone, gun stores even at the range members look through it and say WOW a few have or tried Arken then move on to nightforce ect, we have scope snobs their too i mean they bring 10k worth of tools and cant hit shit. the ATACR - 1-8x24mm F1 weighs 21 oz and its a 34mm 1-8, maybe Arken could some day offer a 1-6 / 1-8 scope i would buy one,
Peace. dont sweat the petty stuff, pet the sweaty stuff

I would like a lighter 1-6 or 1-8 for an AR that would be awsome and I'm sure it would sell great too!

Got a tikka superlight for the pops. Might get an SWFA Ultralight. Waned something light for him, tough guy.
