Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Optics $100 6x42 Nikon Monarchs

Thanks for the heads up. I also ordered one. I have never tried a fixed scope before, but have been wanting one. Can't beat the price.

For $100 bucks, who cares.

I do, because I am considering replacing my M8's with leupolds legendary warranty service with these Nikons, but I don't want to if their warranty and service sucks...

A few guys have posted positive experiences on this site, others not.

My point was you can buy four of these for the same price as a new FX111 6x42.

Thank you gentlemen,

I just ordered the 6X42 in matte. I am laughing at myself as I was prepared to order a 6X42 FXIII.

With a 95% light transmission, and a claimed 98% from the FXIII the 4X price was a no brainer.

Now the hiccup. I have a Win 70 with Talley rings that have outside ring space of 5.25 inches. The FXIII was 5.4" and would have left 1/16" on each side for a mount. Not much, but enough.

Does anybody know if this will fit the Win 70 or what the main tube length is?

And thanks for letting a member know about a great deal.

I have one mounted on an FN Mauser, looks like it would fit on my Model 70 but I haven't tried it.

I googled this up, if it helps. I've never needed to use the warranty for any of my Nikon products.

Curly- on mine, from the front of the raised portion just ahead of the ocular bell to where the objective bell begins to angle outward from the maintube, there is approximatley 5 13/16 inches of tube length.

Thanks VA, Just ordered a 4 x 40 to go on a mil surplus rig, whose stock is on its way to Rick Bin for a paint job.

I just ordered two of the matte 6x42. Thanks a LOT for the heads up VA.

Thanks VA, I ordered two matte.

I wonder how many of these things SWFA have in stock. They are probably going to show up at work tomorrow, and wonder what hit them!

Steve

LOL!
I hope mine come in!

I once ordered a 4200 4-16 off of a website that had them mispriced for $200. A guy called and explained the situation. Wouldn't go through with it, even through I had the printed reciept.

Dang! That would suck. If this turns out to be one of those deals, Chris Farris will be ready to kill his webmaster!

Steve

I have three in matt coming.

I ordered several myself.........not that I need them...........can't pass up on that price!!!


Just hope I am proven wrong..........hope they do stock them!!!

I hate you all - I just ordered one 4X and one 6X in matte - just to put in the safe.....

Hope this works out for you all. I ordered from SWFA the last time they clearanced the Monarchs in 3-9's for cheap and put my order in from the web. The order went through fine but just sat on backorder status. I called them about once a week for a month when they finally said they wouldn't be getting any more and my order most likely wouldn't be filled. I left it open about 6 months and it never was filled. If you talk to them on the phone they don't have any in stock, so if this mimmicks my experience you all will have a bunch of orders but they will never be filled. Hopefully you get lucky and the phone guys are wrong, but my experience dictates otherwise. I kind of wonder if they do this to try to get people to order a different one in stock?

Good Luck!
