Not everyone can afford to spend $500 on optics.  Fortunately, for those in search of lower priced reflex sights, there is a plethora to choose from.  The challenge is sorting out the quality gear in this expansive category.

Love them or hate them, UTG optics seem to be popular with people looking for functional products at affordable prices.  If history is an indicator, the company’s newest TD series of 1X sights should sell well.

The UTG TD series affords shooters two, parallax free sight pictures to choose from: a T-Dot reticle (TDQ Model) and a single 4 MOA dot reticle (SDQ Model).  Both models offer selectable red and green reticles to allow for maximum visibility in a variety of conditions.

Based on UTG’s 38mm objective chassis, the TD series features integral sunshades front and rear.  Adjustments are made easy with premium locking turrets and a quick disconnect lever allows users to adjust game plans on the fly.

Leapers/UTG offers a wide range of gun accessories including stocks, lasers, lights and optics. Earlier this year, Leapers introduced a new handgun scope suitable for hunting. The company also brought out an interesting rifle stock called the Pro S2 Recon. The stock has an attractive look and a reasonable price.
