It won't be forsale to the general public

The Vortex rep in the video mentioned that it may only be 4-5 years away from being available to us regular schmoes.

Please let me know when you get a refurb!!

Hello!

Thank you for writing and for your interest in Vortex Optics!

Until our military contractual obligations are met, they'll only be for the military. There is no timeline when this might occur, but the technology will ultimately get to the civilian market.

It'll cost more than all those features seperate. LPVO, Kestrel and LRF in one unit with Applied Ballistics? Im more worried about the weight of it all more than the price. 3-4lb optic doesn't really appeal to me honestly.

Wait until they (the sight) hit a large unit Division sized, wait a few months and hit the pawn shops. When the Fritz Helmet was brand new Pvt Tentpeg pawned his at Ft Bragg and soon got a visit from CID.
