    Figured I might as well start up a topic in this arena....For those of us so inclined...

    Anybody have any experience with the Vortex 3x Spitfire scope for AR's ?

    Nope, never used one.

    I would like to try one of those "large" aperture scopes... they should give much quicker target acquisition.

    I have a Scorpion Z58 on my rifle right now.
    Works OK, but not much eye relief.

    Problem is optics are such a personal preference type of item it's hard to know what will work for you and with the high prices it's not like you can buy this or buy that without heart palpitations...

    This Vortex is interesting to me as it is illuminated with a choice of red or green at the touch of your finger. For Mr. Colorblind here the choice is important if I actually plan on using it...
