Chris,

 

Is there an update on the SS Variables?  What power range, objective size and cost can we anticipate along with an approximate releas date and price.  Thanks, I have been waiting eagerly for news so I wanted to prime the pump as they say.

I second that motion, I sure would like a Super Sniper Variable. Something along the lines of a 2.5-10x or a 3-12x. So put me on the list for one when they are available.

Project "Variable SS" hit a few bumps in the road.  Gov't red tape mostly from the Department of Defense, then patent and copyright paper work delays have pushed us back several months.  We hope to be testing this winter and have the first model for sell by Spring 2006.

Chris,

 

Thanks for the reply, I doubt that you remember but I believe we met at the SHOT show a few years back. I work with for a large corrections agency and we discussed cqb sights for institutional use. That probabbly narrows it down to a few hundred people.Anyhow, I am more than willing to sign up for a "Pre-order "so I can get one of the first ones out. To acid test for you even.....

Any word yet?, I haven't been on this forum for a lotta months now, but am still very interested in the SS variables.  I have had such good luck with my other SS's that I might have to hold out for one.

 

I am wanting a RRA LAR-10 as well and they are also a little behind on production.

 

So maybe they will both come out at the same time and I will be set!

Roll heavy, all the Time....

The project is still in the works and will happen.  I don't want to post any dates until I know 100% for sure.

Chris,

 

Can you give us any kind of time frame as to when they will be out? Days/Months/Years?

i'd be willing to pre-order one.

 

the 10 x i got from ya'll beats everything i have in the safe, it's also only the second fixed power scope i own, being a big fan of variables, this would be a great item. any info or specs that you would be willing to share ?
