I am sorry. I have no experience with their scopes. Their fairly recently introduced Frontier ED models have been getting quite a bit of praise from just about everyone that has tried them including myself. If they have an ED model scope that is reasonably priced then I would jump on it!

managed to aquire one of the frontier models for 60 quid on ebay.
its an ave scope. functional but not a sparkling performer. I find the image goes funny after 25x its starts getting a bit pale, the colours seem to drain out of the image. after 50x the image deteriorates alot, but thats normal on mid range scopes. around 20x the image is pretty good, very bright. Field of view is poor, but thats the case with most zooms?? Sadly it only comes with zoom option, they dont seem to do fixed lenses. |
