I can't comment on glass other than I had a 3x slide to side magnifier and it wasn't the greatest. Eye relief was pretty poor and I had to crank the focus knob all the way out to get a clear picture.
Sold it with an AR. Their red dots are ok.

I'm curious as to the reliability of the 1-6. Either they have come a long way in their scopes, or somebody is making that for them. They have never been a high prices scope manufacturer and to jump from high power relatively cheap scope to a 1-6 that cost $1200 is suspicious. I have however had extremely good luck with their red dot optics and wouldn't hesitate to buy them again

Sightmark makes several 1-6X scopes, ranging in price from $200 - $1200. I've got a 2.5-10x32 DX (illum ret) on a 308AR and it's held up fine. Great scope.

Compared the U.S. Optics SR4C and the Sightmark Pinnacle at the gun show and the Sightmark looked better. I can't believe I said that but they are both FFP scopes and the image looked better in the Sightmark.
