US Optics limited edition question

[wolfhook]

I recently received a US Optics Sniper's Hide desert camo limited edition scope and I wondered if anyone had any info on it (how many made, when, etc.). I believe it's a variation of the SN-3. Thanks.

I looked and looked and looked. Even sent a couple messages to SH an USO.

Looks like a standard SN3 with a special custom finish. Pics tell me EREK 1/2 MOA elevation knobs. Older, standard (as opposed to the newer, lower profile) parallax. M40 style 1/4 moa windage knobs. Can't get you a date though. My memory isn't work jack these days. Best contact USO directly for more specific info.

Found out a little more. Manufactured in 2004. 20 or 25 made. This is #4. A little too complex and impractical for my shooting so I'm putting it in the classifieds.

I dun think you will get "extra" for it... it would probably just the "regular" price...

You need to find someone who actually dig that camo/finish...

If you want more info, call up USO...

complex, it's actually make it easier to use than your standard scope. It's front focal plane, meaning you can range estimate at any magnification, and your recticle adjust in size to your magnification. It looks like it has a zero stop, which is cool as once you found your zero, the only elevation you can go is up, never having to guess if you went below zero. This scope was made for speed.. unless you plan on hunting and it's too heavy for you, then yes I agree, it might be impractical, but if you are using it on a sniper platform, this is the Mercedes of the tactical scopes. If you are missing instruction, go to USoptics.com and you can download the instructions.
