Long Eye Relief Scope for Sub2000

[Will_White]

What's a decent 2.5-4x fixed magnification scope with a long eye relief and 1" tube for under $200. I don't need illumination, or fancy reticles (although mil dots or MOA marks would be a bonus).

Here's what I'm working with, it's 12-14" to the rear of the rear ring. So I need about 10-12" Eye Relief.

You could always look into getting a cantilever 1 piece mount and mount it backwards. That will bring the eyepiece back farther.

I want to still be able to fold it, those rings are offset 45°, I could get an m lock rail and Mount the rings to that to move them back a little further I might be able to use a scout scope at that point.

I have sold lots of Sub2000s and have a few for myself. What you are describing is a need for what would be a cantilever mount on just about any other firearm, or keep it simple and look at pistol scopes. No problem getting you the relief you want, prices go up fast though.

Example with 20" of eye relief: http://shop2.gzanders.com/optics/simmons-prohunter-pistol-4x32mm-truplex-black-matte.html and only weighs 8 ounces and leaves half your budget untouched.

I can't help you with Vortex, they don't sell to small players like me, but let me know if there is something you need help with or a better price and I will do what I can.

See to the right where it says is taking a break for a few weeks, PM if you need a price check!

Ah, thanks, I saw that, but figured that it was still active, but that you were somehow absent. I'll be PM-ing you for some bullet prices when we come over in late May.

Thanks for the heads-up!

I just sold a Leupold EER (extended eye relief) handgun scope for less than two hundred.
Maybe look for used?
Leupold's are rugged. Mine (albeit silver and too flashy for your rig) was on a 45-70 revolver and seen nearly 1000 rounds. over 7 or 8 years till my eyes went weird. (home rolled ammo 1/4 in 405 gr on some fairly hot loads the rest 300gr)
(Fitted well @ the factory it had barely perceptible ring marks when I sold it)
I went to a Burris red dot and shorter range (100yds and less) so all is fine now.
Unbeknownst to me, but I'm sure there other affordable handgun scope brands that will serve well also.

I use a Bushnell $100 red dot, with a high pica tinny- hand screw mount. I got it from Primary Arms. Takes seconds to mount/take-off retains zero.

Holosun also makes a great line of red dots at very good price
