Actually, you're lucky I've bought two other 2-7s and a 3rd other scope in the last few weeks, or I'd have probably fought you for that one. Already have a 3-9, and they're great scopes for the $ on glass, reticle, and weight for fast and light in the dim. The 2-7 is probably my favorite one. I've spent a good bit of time behind one for load work on a 6.8 AR build I did for a bud. I like it a bit better than my 3-9 even.
