Weaver Optics announces that two of its tactical scopes have received the prestigious "Member Tested and Recommended" seal of approval from the National Tactical Officers Association (NTOA). After extensive testing by law enforcement officials, the Weaver 1-5x24 mm Illuminated Close-Intermediate Range Scope and Weaver 2-10x36 mm 1/10 Mil Tactical Scope received a score of 4.32 and 4.27 out of a possible 5, respectively. The two NTOA approved scopes are a part of the Weaver Super Slam series of tactical optics.

Rigorously tested in the field by law enforcement professionals, products that earn the NTOA's seal of approval are listed on the association's comprehensive online database and will be included in the quarterly journal, The Tactical Edge.

Short- and Long-Range Consistency
The Weaver 1-5x24 mm Tactical Scope with Illuminated Close-Intermediate Range Tactical reticle features powerful 5x magnification for a wide range of applications. From CQB scenarios to extended shots out to 600-plus yards, the Weaver 1-5x24 mm Tactical Scope's one-piece design gives rugged durability for any tactical situation.

The Weaver optic features a first-focal plane reticle for accurate Mil units at all magnifications and can be illuminated in red or green. Reset-to-zero turrets eliminate the need to loosen caps for on-the-fly adjustments.

One NTOA tester awarded a perfect score for the categories of Design, Performance, Size, Quality, Versatility, Application, Accuracy and Cleaning and Maintenance.

Versatility in the Field
The Weaver 2-10x36 mm 1/10 Tactical Scope with the Enhanced MilDot Ranging reticle features fully multi-coated lenses with an extra hard coating on exterior lenses for life-long durability. Waterproof, fog-proof and shockproof, the tactical scope provides precise shot placement round after round.

The wide range of magnification allows shooters to quickly change between long- and short-range targets. One law enforcement tester cited this versatility as one of its strongest assets due to the range of magnifications achieved. From long-range shots taken at high magnification to short-range encounters, an officer can quickly dial down to a low-power magnification for quick sight acquisition on close-range or moving targets.

Another tester gave this scope a perfect score in the categories of Performance, Ease of Use, Size, Durability, Versatility, Application and Cleaning and Maintenance.

MSRP: $1,069.95 (1-5x24 mm CIRT Reticle), $1,197.95 (2-10x36 mm EMDR Reticle)
