[QUOTE="HDC-Deadly, post: 428974, member: 26972"] While JRu is correct in most ways. The price of the scope is not due to the scarcity or rarity of the scope. As some of you may know the SSG-P is the German Military Sniper scope, and thus when the contract was filled for them the price went up.....why you ask? The Scope body is a casting that is then machined to final dimensions, well these casting where cheaper when they (Carl Zeiss Optronics) were buying them in bulk, and now the smaller quantities that they buy the castings are more expensive. There is some serious work that goes into making the SSG-P, it is made to the same standards that every one of our scopes are made to, the image quality is on par with any of our other 56mm scopes, the 72mm scope is in a league by itself. The center line height was also made to line up perfectly with our clip on Night Sight, the NSV 80. As for an AR, we can try to throw one on an AR to give you guys a rough estimate of how high or low it is. Please feel free to ask any questions that you may have and I will check back every couple of days to answer them. Thankyou and take care Austin Cook HDC Sales and CS [/QUOTE]
