I have an extremely lightly used NF Milspec 3.5-15 F1 Mil-dot scope I would like to sell. I bought it new and mounted it on one rifle, then shot about 30 rounds at the range. Other than that, it has been sitting in the safe in a padded case.

These scopes are extremely rare in the civilian world, only a few were released in a special run a few years ago. They are pretty much the pinnacle of riflescope durability. This is the scope with a bullet hole through it that you see in the NF ads.

I can't find a mark on it, but to be very conservative I would call it 99%+ condition.

I have all of the original packaging.

$2,700 shipped.

I can email photos by request.

Thanks,

Chet

Is this scope any different than a regular NXS F1?

Yes, they use different methods in the internal construction including bonding some components in place. They also sort out the best lenses and use them in the military scopes:

ENVIRONMENTAL TESTING
All MIL-SPEC riflescopes endure an external
pressurization test of 40 psi “gauge pressure,” simulating a
depth of 100 feet, to confirm that they exceed current U.S.
military specification requirements by up to 25%.

All MIL-SPEC riflescopes are tested again to guarantee
that they are airtight. This is verified by a secondary
external pressure test of 125 psi “gauge pressure” to
simulate a depth of approximately 300 feet. This testing is
critical to ensure the integrity of the internal components
against the effects of rapid temperature and pressure
fluctuations encountered by HALO (High Altitude,
Low Opening)-type troop insertions, as well as covert
waterborne insertions at submarine depth.

All MIL-SPEC riflescopes undergo twice the amount of
impact testing of a commercial NXS riflescope to ensure
they can withstand abuse from the battlefield.

All MIL-SPEC riflescopes are 100% inspected both before
and after environmental testing procedures to ensure
consistency, repeatability, and to prove the integrity of the
product at every stage.

MANUFACTURING PROCESS
Mechanical components on all MIL-SPEC riflescopes are
assembled in a permanent fashion to maintain product
integrity when exposed to extreme shock and high
frequency vibrations, such as full auto-fire and explosive
environments such as I.E.D. attacks.

All optical elements are bedded in a proprietary Mil-Spec
bonding agent (no glass-to-metal contact).

Tracking accuracy, dial accuracy, reticle tilt, maximum
adjustment range, between-power deviation and
adjustment backlash are all of higher standards on
a MIL-SPEC riflescope. They exceed the already strict
specifications of our commercial NXS™ product line, and
are held to tolerances unmatched by any other scope.

All MIL-SPEC riflescopes are built using only the best
optical elements chosen from each lot received from our
lens element suppliers.

Yeah, if you want to own the scope with the smallest chance of breaking, this is it.

I have that scope sitting on my main AR rifle. It has been there since these scopes first came out.

I have used it hard. Daily.

It looks like hell, but I never have to worry about it not holding zero, or not doing what a scope should do. In the time I've had it, I've only had to sight it in twice. Once when I mounted it, and again years later when I changed barrels, because the other one was shot out.

IMHO, this is one of the best scopes ever made.
