Monstrum Marksman G2 3X Micro Prism Scope

The Monstrum Marksman Ultracompakt Micro Prism Scope is a next-generation compact prism scope optic with a fixed 3x magnification. It offers similar functionality to red dot sights for rapid short-range target acquisition, but utilizes a glass prism optical system with an illuminating circle dot reticle instead of the projected laser dots used in traditional red dot sights.

The key advantages of the prism scope reticle over a red dot sight are its sharpness and ease of focus, especially for shooters with astigmatism. The prism reticle is etched in glass, producing less distortion than red dots, and is easier for the eye to focus on. In contrast, red dot reticles are projected using a laser reflecting against a plane of glass, which can result in a starburst effect at higher brightness intensities.

Another benefit of the prism scope is its ability to function with or without illumination. Red dot reticles require both a powered laser source and an on/off mechanism, making them susceptible to running out of battery power or malfunction. The prism scope reticles, however, remain visible with or without illumination, as they are etched into the glass.

The Monstrum Marksman Ultracompakt is built upon the company's all-new Ultracompakt prism optic assembly, which is 27% shorter and 23% lighter than their previous generation prism scopes. This compact and lightweight design is achieved without sacrificing functionality, as the scope still weighs in at a mere 11.5 ounces and measures just 4 inches in length, with an integrated 1.5-inch riser mount for true co-witnessing with the front sight.

The scope's picatinny base allows it to mount to any standard picatinny mounting platform, and it offers five levels of illumination in both red and green, powered by a single CR2032 battery (included with purchase). Monstrum stands behind the quality of their products, with all Monstrum products now protected by the company's Full Lifetime Warranty.

In summary, the Monstrum Marksman Ultracompakt Micro Prism Scope is a next-generation compact prism scope that combines the rapid target acquisition of a red dot sight with the optical advantages of a prism-based reticle system. Its lightweight and compact design, combined with its robust features and Monstrum's lifetime warranty, make it an attractive choice for shooters seeking a versatile and reliable optic for their firearm.
