Description

Reasons to Purchase an Arken Optics Scope

Arken optics opened up shop in 2019. However, just because they are new doesn’t mean they aren’t quality.

The owner, Michael Reilly, is a retired navy seal. As such, he knows a thing or two about what a quality scope should have.

Arken Lifetime Warranty

One of the signs that the manufacturer trusts its product quality comes from its warranty. With the Arken lifetime warranty, customers can rest assured that their gear will work correctly or get replaced.

Precision Tracking Guaranteed

The other mark of a quality scope comes from the reticle's ability to move with turret adjustments, also known as tracking. A scope with on-point tracking makes adjusting for different distances precise, so the crosshairs always line up with the intended target.

Arken scopes not only track well, but their warranty covers tracking. So if the scope's tracking isn't up to snuff, they will take it back.

Extra-Low Dispersion Glass

With Extra-low dispersion (ED) glass corrects color defects caused by light wavelengths not converging. In a scope, ED glass allows shooters to see long-range targets with clarity.

Arken's First Focal Plane

Arken's Optics also has a first focal plane (FFP). In an FFP the reticle sits in front of the magnification lens of the optic. This positioning allows the reticle to increase and decrease its size with the magnification turrets.

Zero stop

Lastly, the zero stop on this scope stops the elevation turret at zero. Which makes it so the shooter doesn't need to remember the turret setting.

I found myself looked down one of these scopes at a local range. The guy had both the Vortex razor and the Arken EP4. I looked down both at 1000 yards and they were both crazy clear. The only thing, is one is $600 and the other is $2500. I wasn’t sure still, but I stumbled onto one and threw it on my competition rifle and I am extremely impressed. I would probably take the EP4 over my vortex viper PST. These scopes are here to stay. Just good luck finding them. They secret is out, and they can’t keep them in stock.

Only two cons: reticle is difficult to see and the parallax needs to be easier to read.

Had my scope for two weeks when a wild fire burned my house down. I reached out to Arken and Mike called me and went above and beyond anything expected. Had a new scope on its way the same day. Not to many companies care for their customers and their products as they do. A+ for Arken

Fantastic scope for the money. To get all these feedback features on a big name scope you would pay $1000+. Try one you will not be disappointed!
