There's always some form of civil unrest from the typical civil unrest types. Nobody will do anything about it because those civil unrest types have the ideological support of the dominant political party, the institutions, and the government. If you do, do something about it, even lawful self-defense, the government will criminally prosecute you, use a farce judicial process with a biased judge and jury to convict, and put you in prison for the rest of your life. It's all political.

Thanks for the Primer on the LPVO scopes. It will make more sense when we get to see your recommendations for each of the categories.

Modern Warriors is just down the street from me and I don’t know of any physical store that regularly stocks Night Vision Equipment and you can actually walk into the store and pick up anything on their walls and cases. Wide suppressor selection you can pickup and actually ask the staff questions about. Very large classroom for when they do classes ranging from CCW all the way to long range rifle courses.

It's a crying shame Steiner turned into scalping crooks..... The steiner p4xi is the best LPVO ever made for the 5.56 cartridge imo..... But at its new price it just ain't worth it.... It's 1x is so flat and crystal clear, amazing eyebox, daylight bright reticle that's so bright that I've never had to use max setting out in direct sunlight while having an amazing 4x that can easily be used out to 500 yards. My only complaint, other than it's new price of course is that when shooting at 200+ yards both the x & y axis reticle continuation is a bit thick but that thick reticle also really helps with drawing your eyes quickly to center.

Super helpful video. Definitely helped me make my decision for an optic

I'm excited for the Brass Facts MPVO buyers guide!

Nice coverage of LPVO's. Thanks for the info.

One of my favorite LPVOs is the strike eagle 1-4 vortex. You can find them from time to time for $120. Super clear image. Sharp. Lightweight.

As with most things, there are exceptions to every rule, which you even acknowledge at the end. Also, I appreciate that this video is intended to be a rough overview, so getting lost in the weeds about exceptions or outliers would just add confusion and detract from the whole point. With that said, I find it interesting that you specifically call out the 1-10 Credo as bad, when it really doesn't have any of the drawbacks you list and are typically associated with 1-10's. It has an excellent 1x (identical reticle) and even larger FOV than your beloved 1-6 Credo, barely heavier than many "light" 1-6's, including the Credo, nor is the street price out of line with many of the go too LPVO recommendations. Roll in Trijicon glass, durability, and switchgear and I think they actually knocked it out of the park. Sure the eyebox can get a little cozy at 10x but your only ever going to use that in a stabilized position to begin with and there's also a very simple solution; just twist the dial back down to 6x... The beauty of features is that they are there when you need them but you can also just choose not to use them, particularly if they don't cost that much in terms of weight, money, or other compromise. I have to wonder if you've had the chance to actually get behind one yet and if not, I would encourage you to take a look. Especially in light if how highly you (and I) regard their 1-6.

Great video with tons of good insight. Really just commenting for the algorithm

Great information. Wish I had this before I bought my first LPVO a couple years ago. Hahaha. Keep up the good content!

Thanks for doing this bud!

For me the minimum is a 1-8 with a griffin reticle unless you're on a budget then a burris rt6 served me well for many years. The slx I've got on my main rifle has been great in my area and lighting conditions and has gotten me hits out to 927 with 73grain eldm loads. If I had the money I'd get the plx-c just because it's so much lighter. Great video as always and I feel your pain with the seasonal shit I've been fighting a headache and watery eyes for about 2 weeks here in the Ohio River Valley

Red dot bright section of the video was awesome. I never understood why the vortex razors reticle looked the way it did & now I do.

I got my first LPVO a couple months ago. I went budget to test the waters before really investing into something nice. This economy really really sucks for me lol. I got a Monstrum Banshee SFP 1-6x with the BDC reticle for my 16" 5.56. It was 130 bucks on amazon and after doing extensive research on youtube for it and shooting it a few times I can say its quite nice and is no where near garbage. The glass is surprisingly very clear at 6x but it isn't quite daylight bright. The red seems to do better in the daylight than the green which I thought was odd since green is usually brighter. The 1x is pretty solid but I don't have much expereince with high quality LPVOs to compare to but its definitely not a 1.5x. I haven't testied the effectiveness of the BDC but I know the BDC is set up for a 16" 5.56 so thats why I got it. I'm looking to upgrade to maybe a primary arms GLX 1-10x FFP someday.

My favorite setup is my primary arms 1-8 Plx-C with a piggyback red dot. My red dot is really the primary optic, as I use it the most. But I can take shots to 400 m with ease. Extremely versatile and comfortable setup.

Just ordered Burris RT-6 thru my work. It's got a great feature set

last gen primary arms, the one with just the chevron and nothing else, like $150 WITH a mount? now that's value, the costco hotdog of LPVOs, love this thing

Yeah this tracks with how I went about getting an LPVO for my AR, I was looking more general purpose and went SFP 1-6x, it's got a good 1x, a nice 6x, eyebox could be a bit better but light transmission is good, it's a vortex, holds zero, it does what I need it to do and then some. I could have gone with RDS + Magnifier but I want a bit more control for target identification. For my G3 though I'm picking up a MPVO because .308 goes the distance and I want it to be a DMR, it is not a GPR with that bulk. But you are correct, these are guidelines, and good ones at that, and 100% if you're in the market for a scope, go dig through C_DOES stuff, that's how I landed on the LPVO I have and I love the damn thing.

Wish I had this video 2 years ago! Great vid

LPVOs are like semi auto shotguns, body armor, thermal optics, and nightvision rn; their markets are steadily changing every year. As someone who owns multiple LPVOs and isn't crazy about any of them, it might be worth it to wait for this market to settle down a bit. In the meantime, Romeo5/RomeoMSR + Juliet 3x for the poors and SLX 3x Micro for the astigmatised.

March FX 1.5-15x42mm DFP is my go to LPVO currently. messed with all the different styles (1-6/8/10, ffp/sfp, fiber/etched, etc) and for me, I can deal with the subpar "1x" in order to gain that 50-250+% max magnification. You have a pretty decent eyebox with minimal eye relief shrinking going to 15x and it doesn't darken all that much thanks to the 42mm objective. Dual Focal Plane gives you the nice "1" like most 1-6 SFPs with a daylight visible dot and thick posts, while gaining a very usable, fast, and easy Christmas tree when you bump into the FFP. It also weighs less and is shorter than some LPVOs like the Trijicon credo 1-8. I also find the 1.5x to be pretty flat. As for equally large plate of compromises you get... Tight parallax due to the 10 power factor in a short body. Can't get it as low as an LPVO (not an issue on ARs and skyscraper gang). It isn't daylight bright (3/10 on the nova scale). A steep 24-30oo price tag. A non expedient warranty experiance (small overseas shop. slower than Kahles/Swaro). The throw lever is one feature I really karen over and the March is tolerable. Its a smidge stiffer than a K16I and Credo 1-8, but you can still somewhat effortlessly spin it british style (with the pinky), which easily beats out anything PA, Vortex, Swampfox, etc puts out. How I view it, you can train to get good with the 1.5x at close range, but there's nothing you can do to increase your natural magnification for when you just want to squeeze that last little bit of data from what you are looking at and for some people (like me), my eyes are worse than any premium lens I've looked through, which led me to dump my K16I for a swampfox arrowhead 1-10 lol as I could see better with it. With the march, I get the best (and then some) of both worlds.

Ive got the PA SLx 1-8 FFP its decent enough if 100% true 1x isnt a deal breaker and bonus it doesnt weigh 24ozs either I need to upgrade to the PLxC but HMT won the coin toss Good video Now back to dumping on LPVOs until theyre popular again

I love buying a lpvo, selling it for a red dot and mag, sell that, get an lpvo again, and then finally get another red dot and mag to ultimately sell again

Ass frags back at it again with a fantastic video that I learned a lot and am somehow more confused. Thanks.

Can you follow this up with a coordinated why LPVOs suck video with Hop so we can get some discounts? Just pick the best budget GPR lpvo and trash talk it please!

After getting my Razor HD 1-6, I opted for a RD plus magnifier. Being able to ditch the magnifier and save weight just made more sense to me, given my circumstances.

9:48 This is why I like this channel. Its all sciency and stuff.

The GWOT navy seal look was great.

Good discussion

Best optic upgrade I got was PRK surgery. Less failure points, better default NV capability, and no astigmatism.

I went back to the exps3 and g33 because I realized that LVPOs were really more capability than I personally need and I like having the NV performance better than having to use a piggy back RMR

Brassfacts Friday 🎉🎉🎉🎉

I’m a fan of BDC ret. I shoot my guns enough so I know how the scope works with my ammo. 1-6 LPVO is awesome for my AR’s and my AK’s, I pretty much set them up for 0-300 yards.

Good stuff!

Went from a 10.5 rd set up to a 14.5 with a viper 1-6 and It’s exactly what I wanted but the weight being the only real downside I see.

Hi Brock, nice to see I'm not alone in the Brock world.

One more thing to point out. All things considered. SFP tends to be significantly lighter weight. Won’t matter in big magnifications but if you go for 1-4 or 1-6. That usually means a lighter rifle and that quarter pound could matter

Babe wake up the new Brassfacts lpvo deep dive video just dropped!

I'm with you on those allergies brother. I spent all of yesterdays shift sneezing non stop, then waking up today with a pounding headace. Fuck spring

I bought a Vortex Razor 1-6X for a 16" 556 and surprisingly it does not provide the magnification I had hoped, I bought it 3-4 years ago before 8X and 10X were really I thing, until now it hasn't been a big deal because I have gone down the SBR and PDW Rabbit Hole, but seriously debating on selling it and getting a 8X-10X because 6X is ok but I want a better image of my target at mid ranges.

I got a plxc for $600 and I’m happy with it

Thank you

I was told Schmidt and Bender reticles are a little on the outdated side of things, so sometimes paying more doesn't net you exactly what you're looking for. I suppose that is why you brought up the March LPVO, obviously.

Great vid as usual but I like the way you explain it. BTW what was that camo netting you were wearing? Was it a shroud or multiple pieces?

The c does shoutout. I love it.

honestly, if you're gonna put a one to 10 on your gun, you might as well just have a red dot and a 3 to 12. The $400 3-12x scope I have on my deer Rifle is probably better glass quality than most of these one to 10 scopes. People are dropping insane money on. it has a BDC and an illuminated radical and worked well enough to tag Bambi across a cornfield at dusk at 350 yards with a 6.5. I think it's quite literally a works for me

I’ve watched so many of these love videos and still an unmagnified red dot on a carbine 😀

The thing I try to keep in my head when optics shopping is that there is no free lunch, everything is a tradeoff. My strategy has become: figure out what the rifle is good at, and then my the optic that makes it better at that thing.

I cycle between believing lpvo are best and switching between a red dot and acog via qd. Currently on the acog grind but sure to go back to lpvo once i start competition shooting again

Defractive power light reticle in some FFP lpvos are just as daylight bright as the SFP fiber ones. Razor 1-10, NX8,. ATACR1-8 , S&B PM2 1-8

Funny thing, I want to get an LPVO for a .22LR, and the only features I explicitly want is FFP and a good tree reticule. I just enjoy absurd shots with delay between the shot and the impact. Current record is 165ish yards out of a CP33 with a Griffin Armament Paladin 5 HD and a 1-6 Primary Arms SLX with 5.56/.308 Raptor reticle.

Still chasing the LVPO dragon, sticking with my Gen I Viper PST 1-4 due to it being lightweight with good glass & FOV at max magnification. The reticle is still my favorite that I've found, minus the thick semi circle & lack of wind holds, add exposed turrets that are tall af & don't lock would be my only gripes. Would've gotten the Gen II, but they switched up the reticle & weighs 4oz more(before any of ya'z say hit the gym, I wish I could, but age has made a mess out of my body & eyes). The bitch is that they discontinued the Gen I which is adequate to stretch out to 5.56's effective distance. Would go with an ACOG if I didn't have to crink my mangled neck to get up on it. Wish they made just a simple reticle, the ACSS Aurora would be ideal if it got rid of the horizontal range finding bs. Tried a friends FFP 1-8, not really feeling it for an LVPO. The dragon laughs from it's mountain...

Based I don't know why all guntubers turn down budget optics. Lower end optics are made in China anyway. Vector optics make 100ish$ lpvo or Red dot magn combo Or 50sh$ red dots. As long as its holds zero its viable.

i reallllly wish someone ( primary arms) would make a actually compact 1-4 lpvo. take the 1-8 plx-c concept, but do SFP and 1-4 with a wide, short main tube. essentially a better replacement for a red dot- magnifier set that doesn't compromise so much on weight (SWC) but gives you an etched reticle with bdc and better glass clarity at 4x( and 1x if you have the 'stigmatism)
