Hello all.  

 

I did a quick search but couldn't seem to find the answer.  Can anyone tell me what the difference if any between the new Monarch X badged Nikon as compared to the Tactical badged model?   Just a name change or different specs? 

 

Thanks

Kevin

Kray, that's a good question(s).

 

From what I can gather, the "X" is a more PC term than "tactical", thus some Brainiac from Nikon wanted to please the gun grabbers.

Same scope as before, I assume.

 

The one area that the X "may" be differant or better from the old Tactical is all the new Monarchs are offering 4" FIXED eye relief, versus 3.39" on the old Tactical.  

 

Not much, but that's all I got on the X.

Hey Cheaptrick

 

Thanks for the reply.  I ask because i sent a tactical back to Nikon some time ago for some work and they said they would have to replace.  I called to check on status and they said they were still waiting on a shipment.  Since this will be a new shipment I was guessing that it might be the X version.

 

Thanks

Kevin
