I saw the adds for pre-ordering the Viper PST line on the Optics Talk sidebar for the first time in a long time.

Is this a hint that they might be available soon?  Like maybe around Shot Show time?

Still says backorder in small print though. But Vortex must be getting close. Otherwise, it wouldn't make sense to even do that.

They were off for a good while. Maybe a couple of months. We just put them back up last week.
 
The word is they're hoping to have them maybe by the end of the year or sometime in January. So we stuck them back up.

Was reading on the hide that Scott from Vortex gave a revised 1-4PST to lowlight for review. So there may finally be some light at the end of the tunnel.

Wahoo.  I know there are a lot of folks waiting on them.  They will be a good pricepoint for those who can't afford the alpha but still want good usable scopes.

I got an updated 2.5-10x44 for review a couple of days ago.  This is supposed to be a production sample, so production quantities should not be too far behind.

As soon as I wrap up with my write-up on High End Tactical scopes, I will be looking at the PST next to a similarly configured Monarch X and, perhaps, S.S. 3-9x42 (not sure about this yet).

Looks like they're starting to ship them out - a few next week, then ramping up over the next few months. Lots of backorders though.
