March FX 1.5-15x42 Dual Plane

Has anyone been behind one of these yet?

I am considering the D15V42FDIMLX version for a lighterweight, short scope.
I had a March F 3-24x52 and it was good, but not WOW.
I have a March FX 4.5-28x52HMWA, and it is WOW. But the High Master glass is definitely a step up from the standard March glass.

If the glass is the same as the older March F, I am not sure if I want to pay $3k for one to save 3-4 oz over a couple other options I can get for less $.

I tried one of these. The scope is so short that you need a continuous rail and you have to mount it higher than you would expect because the bell starts hitting on the rail. The one i tried was more geared towards competition AR style rifles though.

DVOR often has them for around $1800 keep an eye out weekly.

They have the 1.5-15x42 Dual Focal on there for $1,800??? I'd buy one at that price to try out if they pop-up.

I see a 2.5-25x42, non-illuminated, SFP for $1,800 on there today.

They often lists various March scopes for sale. Best to check on a weekly basis. Their prices can't be beat. There was a 4-40x High Master tactical for $3100-$3200 I was tempted to buy. A seller here is trying to sell one like it for $4100. There was also a 5-42x56 FX wide angle for $3200 as well but missed that one. They were all priced at more than $1000 off. Even the 10-50x52 I paid $2200 on sale previously and thought I got a great deal on was selling for even cheaper at $1900 last time I checked.

Other crazy deals I saw were Meopta S2 20-70x eyepiece for $225 and Kowa TSN 99 body for under $2000.
