Is anyone here using this scope? I’m looking for a ffp scope and came across this unit. If possible I would like feedback from someone that owns one. Thanks.

SWFA SS 3-15x42 Tactical Rifle Scope

Outstanding scope! When I bought it, I didn't realize just how good it was going to be. Picked it up for a review and was going to sell it afterwards but, I just can't bring myself to part with it.
I normally like more than 15x at 100 yards but, this little gem is so clear that I was using it quite effectively at that range.

Heres a 92 yard chester shot on this furball w/ the swfa 3-15x42 ffp scope...
60*, sunny & 12mph winds to the North...
.22 Mutant Shorty shooting jsb 16g @ 812 fps@ 23 fpe...
SWFA 3-15X42 FFP Scope @ 15X...
Pellet flew into his chest right through his neck...
This scope has endured everyday bumps & bruises sitting in my truck driving from home to work & vice versa, plus all the hunting, pesting trips which is almost everday for me. This scope has survived through the scorching summer 110* days all the way down to 18* winter nights here in North Texas. Just like my buddy Joe Rhea, Ive owned most of the swfa 10X, 12X, 16X, & 20X scopes, & this 1 is one of my most favorites. The swfa 16X ss scope has a tad bit thinner crosshair than the swfa 3-15x42 ffp model. I still own both and both has their purposes on each rifle.
Hope this helps...

I received the SWFA 3-15x42....in a word awesome! This is My first experience with a FFP scope and I’m wondering what took me so long? I see another one for my Wildcat in my future. Being able to focus down to 6m is definitely a plus for taking pests closeup. The tactile positive clicking turrets are a pleasure to use. I opted for MRAD (my first) and I can see where it will be so much simpler than MOA. I also downloaded StrelokPro....what a hunting combination. Thanks again for all your responses encouraging me to buy it. Cheers!

Yup,thanks to JWR I also bought 2 at the tax day sale. Impressed enough to try the 10x fixed which he also recommended. I will look at the SWFA from now on whenever I have a need. Thanks Joe.....

I have used all of the SWFA line from straight power scopes to the HD series in 10x , 3x15 and 5 x 20
For a pcp I have to say the 3x15 ffp Mil-quad is my favorite , turrets at 100% accurate , the reticle is clean with many holdover sights with a clean reticle with out cluster , It is a great scope for dialing or holding or milling targets for distance , I dont think you can find a better scope for the money , and on holidays look for a 10% sale and also look in sample list sight as they sell demos and used which still carry the lifetime warranty great company too , best of all the reticle and turrets are matched on this scope

I got a SWFA 3-15x42 ffp in MOA. Love it. Great buy for the money. Tracks perfect. Clarity is good (not great, but nothing anyone would complain about). I bought a range wheel with mine. Ranging is good up to 75 yards. From 75 to 100 gets tricky to range, but still manageable. Extremely durable, it is a little heavy but that is what expected for a military grade scope.
