GPO Passion HD 10x42mm

Awesome set of binoculars would be hard pressed to tell the difference up against Swaro NL's for a fraction of the cost.

U-mount for large binoculars

The mount is well made and sturdy.

Love it !

I love this scope, image is very clear

I like it !

Very nice and sturdy mount, I like it !

so far so good

I love the telescope. I only had a chance to use it twice so far. The views of the sun are amazing - seeing prominences, sunspots, etc.

Works well

Have been able to use this scope for one range trip. Works well. The reticle is sharp and clear, and the turrets function nicely, have only used them to zero at 100 yards, have not tried dialing for different ranges yet. The illumination works nicely as well. My only complaint is that the illumination knob is quite stiff, by design I suppose, so it doesn't turn on/off accidently.

Athlon Optics Talos 20-60×80mm Angled Spotting Scope - Green

Leupold BX-4 Pro Guide HD Gen 2 10x50mm

Binoculars are clear the the edge, comfortable to the eye with new eye cups. Would buy again

It’s the real deal!

What a great device. Heavy and beautiful!

Red Carpet Telescopes and the Athlon Heras SPR 15-60×56mm

In March I was introduced to Smallbore F-Class shooting and right away I wanted to try it out but I needed to get a new scope that would have the magnification to be able to see the hits at 50 and 100 yards. It was recommended to me to get an Athlon scope as they provided excellent value for the price. For months I tried to find one and could not; even importing one provided to be impossible. One of the club shooters told me about Red Carpet Telescopes and I quickly visited the site. I was able to order and have the scope shipped within 3 weeks. My interactions with Matt at Red Carpet were excellent; overall I’d rate Red Carpet Telescopes 5 stars and would not hesitate to do business with them again.

Here is my feedback on the Athlon Optics BLR2 SFP MOA scope after 2 sessions at the range. First and foremost it does provide excellent magnification to shoot those tiny little bullseyes at 50 and 100 yards. The dials feel great and zeroing the scope was very easy to do. At first I thought why would I want to install the large parallax wheel attachment but after using I really like it, the ability to do fine adjustment is a plus. The lens glass is good especially given the price point. The only downside I have experienced so far is the eye relief, it is not very forgiving, my eye needs to be at the exact distance to the scope I used when I set it up to be able to properly see through scope. This will become second nature the more I use the scope. Today I would rate the scope 4 out of 5 stars, this could change the more I use it.

Excellent images

I've looked at a lot of 8x42 binos but my challenge is I wear glasses and need a fair bit of usable eye relief (actual eye relief less the height of the eye cup when fully retracted). The GPO Passion HD 8x42 has 19.5 mm of actual eye relief and a little over 16 mm of usable eye relief which is more than enough for using with glasses but not too much when using without. The optics are top notch - CA only in the most extreme conditions, edge to edge clarity is excellent as is the resolution. Construction seems very solid. I would recommend the GPO HD line to anyone looking for top tier glass especially if you wear glasses.

Thank you for the quick and efficient service and would use Red Carpet Telescopes again!

Lunt LS50 THa

This is my first foray into solar telescopes. After a fair bit of research I decided on this scope as the best value for the money. I was told that I was put on the build wait list and it could be up to 3 months. I was pleasantly surprised when my order showed up in about 1 month. Instructions were clear, and I was up and running after a short time. The scope shows surface details, flairs, and prominences. I created a composite image to show the surface details and prominences in a single frame. Looks impressive for a first try.

I’m impressed enough that I ordered the double stack filter! Arriving soon.

High quality eyepiece

This is an excellent eyepiece with high build quality; I bought it for my Lunt 40 mm-- optics are great, and the twist-up eyecup is particularly useful for blocking stray light.

Compass

Fantastic! High quality, very responsive and delivered within days. Could not be happier!

GOOD

Everything was great 👍

kowa lense

Everything went smooth, product arrived on time and as described

Good binos

The binos are good and clear.

Waiting for a chance to use it

Our weather still hasn’t afforded the opportunity to try the ruducer as yet.
Your sales and service are great though.

So far so good

I picked up the gen2’s a little while ago. So far everything seems solid my only real issue is the extra eye cups I find the cups on the gen 1 quite solid however because the cups are removable they aren’t very solid as you need to be able to stretch them over the plastic keeper… I thought sweet several options but I’m thinking I prob won’t ever change them…. So not an awesome feature in my view… I like the look and feel of the Gen 2s over the gen1.. the glass is nice and clear .. low light ability is a def better then my bushnells .

Kowa TSE-17HD 25x LER Eyepiece

Fun little pair of binoculars

The crystal-clear view and easy knob to accommodate glasses wearers are two favoured features in my family.
