Give them there due and if you ae interested try one out the opportunity is there.
I'd be keen to put it in my scope jig alongside my Athelon Ares 4.5-47, PST Gen II 5-25 and Zeiss V4 6-24 to get a "real" comparison and test the turrets tracking.

What is your thoughts on the Viper 5-20 FFP after some time? I am considering something like this for my plinking jw-15 .22
And, when I look on Aliexpress there are quite a number of sellers for these T-Eagle scopes. Which one is the official store?
Thanks for the reviews. It is very helpful.

The version of Viper 5-20 I was sent is a prototype, it has some minor issues that the owner told me was ironed out in later version. As such I wont get into them.
The image quality is very good for a scope without a big brand. I think it does not have ED glass, but because it is only 4x zoom ratio and has a larger objective element, its image quality feels better than the IMAX. Brighter, slightly more contrasty and crispy.
The points worth noting of this scope are:
1. the middle part of the scope (where the dials are) is quite big, some smaller one piece rings may not accommodate.
2. the rear part of the scope is quite big, so that you may have to install the rings a little more forward than usual on the rails, otherwise the rear end sort of is too close to your head when you hold the rifle in normal shooting position.
3. the side focus knob's surface is too smooth and the knob itself is quite stiff, making it a little harder to turn than ideal.
I have not tested tracking, or precision of the reticle markings. I can do that when I find time, . Or if you are keen you take it for a free trial yourself. Same process as as for the other scope.
The official store on Aliexpress is, I believ, Wojie optics. The NZD is unfortunately a bit weak right now, making the prices higher than last year.
It could have lenses like a jam jar and be bright pink for all I care. Wind the turrets in and out maximum to minimium a few dozen times while whacking it on the table in between. If the cross hairs don't break its a decent scope.
