OK as some of you know i have a few redhawks and i have a 41 mag scoped with a luepy.My question is my scope i have trouble acquiring sight through scope quickly sorta have to move gun around a little to get full veiw.The scope is a luepy M8-2x extended E.R.

My question i would like to move up to something like 4x power but needs to have good eye relief for quick acquistion.What scopes should i look at????
I don't want a red dot

This is my only scoped handgun as i prefer the open sights but nice to bring the 41 out once in awhile.

How much have you practiced with your revolver at acquiring a sight picture when you aim?

i've shot probally around 3-400 rounds.It might be just me.


I do pick the gun up empty once in awhile to sorta practice drawing and looking down scope

Practicing acquiring a sight picture with a scope, just like open sights is something one can do when one's least favorite politicians are on tv.

Yes indeed! I do always practice when watching TV.....LOL!!

i'm hoping to find maybe a 3 or 4 power with a little better sight acquisition.I have been doing alot more welding this year and can feel my eye gets bothered from it.I will practice more now with obama on tv

My fixed powers are Leupold 4 and 2Xs.

It really does require practice to acquire targets with a handgun scope. I just don't seem to have the patience for it........

Get a Leupold 4X or a Burris 4X, I have both, and find them a little easier, and a little better sight acquisition than the 2X Leupold's I have. Also just take your gun out with the scope on it, and practice bring up the gun and finding your sight picture. I pick out stuff in the field behind my house, and see how fast I can bring up my scoped handgun and find the target. Takes a little getting use to, but you will get the hang of it.

Hi,

I have a new in the box Burris 2-7 handgun scope that was going to go on a gun that I sold before I got the chance to mount it. It has the ballistic plex reticle, hunter knobs, and is matte black. The model number is #200279

I'll take $280 plus shipping for it. I can send pictures but I would rather leave iut in the unopened sealed box.

If you have any questions please contact me at JohnNiemi@charter.net
Thanks, John

Here are the pictures of the scope. It is new in the box.

thank you but i'm gonna pass
