SWFA 1-4x24 SS

What’s the consensus on these LPVOs? I’ve seen snippets here and there of people saying they’re “not as good” as the previous 1-6, but nothing specific. Would be great to hear specifics from people with experience with them.

I've got one, 1x4x24. It's not as bright and the range marks are small. That said it serves it's purpose on my 7.2 x 39 . I'm thinking my next one should make 10x on the top end.

Gotcha - yeah not looking for any crazy performance, just something inexpensive that does its job. You feel like functionality wise it has been good? As in zero retention, tracking, etc?

I had two, one failed on a xbow for my son. Trijicon lpvo seems to be the ticket.

Failed in what way?

Trijicons definitely seem solid, but also a good bit more expensive generally.

Wouldn’t hold zero, guessing internals/erector went. SWFA was great, sent a new one immediately after receiving mine. Had another one on a 45-70 for 3 kills and maybe 200 shots with no problems so who knows?

They make a Huron and Ascent lpvo forget which one I have but it’s been great for hunting thick mountain cover (45-70, shots all under 50 yds).

Yeap, mine holds zero and tracks well. probably 5000 plus rounds under it.
