Just curious if my scope the SWFA 3x15x42 has a etched reticle ? I assume it doesn't because it wasn't listed in the specs . I searched all over before coming and bugging you fine gents . Thank you all .

It is etched.
Folks ain't got a sense of humor no more. They don't laugh they just get sore.

Need to follow the rules. Just hard to determine which set of rules to follow
Now the rules have changed again.

Any ballistic style MIL or MOA reticle that has a complex set of hash marks, floating dots/dashes, etc. HAS to be glass etched. It isn't possible to make a reticle with those features out of wire or stamped metal, since these designs have floating and very thin, unsupported design elements. Some standard MIL dot reticles or other very simple designs can be exceptions.
