Created for people whose lives depend on their scope.
The ultimate test of a riflescope is not in a laboratory, not at the range, but under conditions that literally can mean life or death. For many years, Nightforce has worked closely with the U.S. military. Our scopes are in use around the world by the U.S. Navy, the U.S. Army, and a number of Special Forces teams. Many of our riflescopes and their features were created in conjunction with military professionals to address their stringent requirements.
Nightforce scopes have earned their reputation under some of the most hostile, demanding conditions imaginable. To a military or law enforcement professional, it means reliability that can save their lives. To any shooter, it means precision, accuracy and repeatability with every shot, and a product of such superior quality that your scope is guaranteed against defects in workmanship and materials for as long as you own it.
Whatever conditions you encounter with your Nightforce riflescope, you can be confident that they - and their users - have somewhere, sometime, survived much worse.

The hole you see in the well-used Nightforce 3.5-15x50 NXS scope at right was made by an enemy 7.62x39 round fired at a U.S. soldier. The bullet completely penetrated the erector tube - the heart of the scope's optical system. We’re happy to report that the
soldier was not injured, and the only casualty is the scope's magnification ring, frozen on 15x. Its focus, tracking, and all other functions work just fine. It holds point of aim like new. The soldier wrapped the scope in duct tape to keep out sand and dirt, and used it without a problem for the next
three days, completing his mission. We receive many stories like this. Because Nightforce riflescopes are used in active theatres by most of the elite special forces worldwide, they are subjected to - and survive - the most brutal conditions imaginable. We won't say they're bulletproof. There is at least one soldier, however, who would argue otherwise.
