Vector Optics PARAGON 8–24×50 ED Spotting Scope

Are you looking for a compact spotting scope that provides sharp detail, excellent brightness and reliable zoom? Do you want high-quality ED glass but also something that won’t take up more space in your backpack than a larger rifle scope? Do you need optics that work both on the shooting range for checking targets and for observing nature, birds or wildlife? Then the PARAGON 8–24×50 ED Ultra Short is the ideal monocular for you. This spotting scope uses an ED objective lens that minimizes chromatic aberration and provides a clean, high-contrast image even at higher magnification. The durable rubberized exterior protects the optic from impacts and scratches, while nitrogen purging ensures fog-resistance. Its ultra-short design (only 185 mm) makes it easy to carry and handle. The package includes a tripod stand, carrying bag, strap and cleaning cloth. Thanks to its versatile 8–24× zoom and a close-focus distance of 2.2 m, it is suitable for tactical use as well as recreational observation.
