    Riton: anyone running their scopes, RDS, or magnifiers?

    I landed on these guys website from an affiliate link from another veteran owned company. Riton is veteran owned, they have a warranty that matches up pretty close to Vortex and the eye relief on their optics is as good as what I've seen from Vortex. But I just don't know anyone who has had hands-on. i'm not looking at a different go-to optic. I have my EOTechs and my Aimpoint. I'm comfortable and confident. But I'd still like to know what kind of option Riton is for us. I know that just because a company is veteran owned doesn't make whatever they are selling the best, but I felt this was worth a look, and besides if I can do business with a veteran owned company over a civilian owned, I will try to do business with the vet,

    My search turned up one E&E ad for a scope.


    So anyone with firsthand experience with Riton would be great.
    Anyone who has had hands-on the optic, but never owned one would also be appreciated.

    Thanks
    RTT

    I played with a few during a vendor event in Vegas a few months ago. First thing I noticed is their scope bodies are extremely similar to vortex’s so I’d assume they are using the same manufacturing sources. Glass was clear but the reticles weren’t my favorite.

    I just ordered the 3x magnifier to put behind the Eotech. I have heard some good stuff about them so I decided it was worth a shot. The downside is I told the wife I grabbed this as a Christmas gift for myself so my skills of trying to use this and then repackaging it without her noticing over the next month will be put to the test.

    Their higher end 1-8x24 looks interesting. It's available in FFP or SFP, illumination is supposed to be daylight bright, etc. They seem to be selling around $1100 or a little less online.

    What the scope actually looks like:
