Schmidt & Bender Rifle Scopes

All of the AW type rifles include an integrated telescopic sighting system, the Mk II 'military' sight, designed by Accuracy International and produced for them by Schmidt und Bender of Germany. It features special zeroing, reticle and ranging features and the best possible optics, all in a robust, short, light weight, weather resistant housing. The Mk II is available in fixed power 6x42 or 10x42 and variable 3-12x50 or 4-16x50. Special features included as standard in all the Mk II sights include: Special ranging AI mil dot reticle which is designed so that if the target can be seen in the dark, so can the reticle. Large adjustment drums calibrated in 0.1 mil rad. or 1/2 MOA clicks and marks, with an additional 'fail safe' range scale on the elevation drum to match certain types of ammunition in AW rifles. Both windage and elevation drums have ± 20 MOA or ± 6 mil rad., and 65 MOA or 13 mil rad. respectively, all between positive stops in one turn. This unique adjustment system gives the operator fine click adjustment yet enough movement for the longest ranges, and, being within one turn, substantially reduces the risk of an incorrect setting (possible on some other sighting systems) by a user under pressure. A unique parallax adjustment system fitted to the variable sights, together with the special high quality optical array, actually assists in range finding. Light transmission exceeds 90%, yielding superb dusk and night shooting capability. A laser filter. An objective lens hood extension is provided as a sunshade and also serves to keep rain off of the front lens. A 'quick' focus at the eyepiece so that the user can always sharpen the reticle image if necessary. A one-piece interface mount which optimizes the position and function of the sight relative to the rifle and the ammunition to be used in it.

A new generation of rifle scopes for the precision sharpshooter Since 1967, Schmidt & Bender rifle scopes have been regarded among the finest in the world. Their superb optics, exceptional lens coatings and rugged quality have been proven under some of the most demanding conditions around the globe by hunters and serious shooters. Their performance is so outstanding in poor lighting conditions, that you can actually gain up to an hour a day of shootable light. A few years ago, Schmidt & Bender introduced its Police/Marksman rifle scopes, designed to meet the specific requirements of the precision sharpshooter, SWAT and tactical teams, law enforcement, security and corrections agencies Now, these remarkable scopes have been even further refined to address the needs of SWAT and tactical teams, law enforcement, security and corrections agencies. The Police/Marksman II series is a new generation... offering unsurpassed clarity, reliability and flexibility appropriate for a variety of shooting situations. Schmidt & Bender Police/Marksman scopes are crafted of heavy-duty aluminum with an anodized black semi-matte finish. The tubes are virtually indestructible and the finish is very hard and scratch-resistant. All interior parts are precision -machined to exacting tolerances, using only the finest materials Matching your scope to your shooting conditions With five Schmidt & Bender Police/Marksman II models to choose from, you can tailor your scope to the shooting environment you encounter most. The 10 x 42 fixed power model is the logical choice if most of your shooting is conducted under similar conditions, such as target shooting. The 3-12 x 50 and 4-16 x 50 variable power scopes give you the ability to adjust magnification as conditions dictate. Keep in mind that a lower magnification provides a wider field of view than a higher magnification. Because of their design, Schmidt & Bender variable power scopes are one of but a few in the world that can absolutely guarantee that point of impact will not change at different magnifications. All models are designed for ranges up to 1000 yards. The superb 50 mm lens will provide maximum performance in poor light situations, especially when combined with an illuminated reticle. New! Greater adjustment range, finer clicks A larger 34 mm tube - which is now incorporated into the 3-12 x 50 and 4-16 x 50 scopes - provides a greater range of elevation and windage adjustments. At the same time, the larger turrets allows finer clicks. This combination gives you a wider adjustment range when sighting in as well as when using our bullet drop compensator and windage adjustment.
