compared the VX-6 1-6 with the SWFA 1-4 both at 3X at 6PM this evening. Easily a lot more scope around the image in the SWFA, easily less fuzzy at dark with the VX-6, easily the better aiming point in the 6, bigger FOV in the 6, easier to find the image in the 6, hand held....but for less than 1/3 the money the SWFA is really looking pretty good, decent glass, can see the reticle OK, don't look to bad. Will see what develops.
