Originally developed for use on military small arms, it offers an extremely versatile magnification range providing outstanding mid- to long-range capability. An NXS 3.5-15x50 was shot completely through by an enemy 7.62x39 round fired at a U.S. soldier…yet the unharmed serviceman used it for the next three days, completing his mission. The 3.5-15x50 adapts comfortably to a variety of rifle platforms, survives abuse that would destroy lesser riflescopes, and is impervious to heavy recoil. And, apparently, to enemy bullets.
