Maybe they can redesign the hell out out of FFP mechanism and get something sub 20 ounces, I don't know if I have seen a FFP sub 20 ounce scope, Vortex LHT is 21 and Leupold has on that's 20 and change even 20 ounces for a FFP vudu is a 25% increase over 16. To me any increase over 16 ounces the LHT is a better option at 22 on the high end vs 9! I love the premise of this scope Maybe they can go farther with it, Vortex needs a Gen2 LHT and keep pushing lighter weight scopes, 20 ounces seems to be a FFP barrier that needs to be broken. All the sub pound scopes are SFP for a reason.

I like the premises of it. For sure. But they are trying to break some barriers, and need to for it to be a realistic option - for me at least. I want the FFP. I don't like being stuck on a reticle at a certain power or having to do extra math.

And they are competing against a pretty solid LPVO market.

But, EoTech has put out some solid short FFP options, namely the 5-25. It is heavy if weight is a concern.

At least they are trying something different.

Weight should never be a concern honestly. If you’re worried about ounces, then you have other problems.

That's my take.

Hence a can, optic, lam, etc.

My #1 goal is effectiveness. Not weight.

You’re effective because you’re strong and in shape. Your body is the number 1 weapon.

Weight matters b/c balance matters. It also matters if you are hiking 12 miles at 10k ft elevation. Everyone's needs and use cases are different.
A FFP version of this optic would not weigh much more or be much larger at all than the current version.

Pick the right tool for the job.

Hang a 1lb can on the end of a rifle, no problem. Extra 4 ounces on the optic centered above the balance point? Minds explode.

I do understand trecking through mountains miles on end and ounces = lbs, lbs = pain.
