Tactical Scope

Does anyone have information regarding a scope with a built-in tactical rail? I've seen one/two ($120) on GB, but they do not mention the make/model. The only tactical scope (rail) I can find is the Leupold Mark 4 CQ/T for $750+. Thanks!

    Are you looking for the rail? the scope? or a rail and scope combo?

    the CQT is a relatively low powered, red dot type sight. If you are looking to put an actual "tactical scope" and "tactical rail mount" on your rifle, there are quite a few out there.

    For rails:(all of these can be found at www.sinclairintl.com )
    Nightforce www.nightforceoptics.com
    Bruce baer
    Badger Ordinance
    Ken farrel
    Leupold MK IV

    for scopes:
    Nightforce
    Leupold MK IV
    Schmidt and Bender
    Swarovski

    FYI, you arent getting much for $120. A good rail should cost that much, without rings or scope. Beware,....nothing truly tactical is cheap. Figure on a good setup being $1000-$1700.

    why chase the game when the bullet can get em from here?....

    www.sportsmansguide.com Has the LEUPOLD for $779.00 ir if you in the Buyers Club, $701.00 I used one this last fall at Ft.McCoy, Wi.It was on an M16.. It was ok, But when you start to put all the crap on, it felt top heavy, about 18 ozs [:)]

    It will hurt you, More than it will hurt me..

    JustC/warcrob-

    It's a scope (says it's about 7.5 inches long) with rails on it. In the picture (looks like the Leupold Mark 4 {$700+} but "the package" was going for $500 with NR), it had the scope with a Hakko looking flip/flex type scope mounted on top, and a flashlight/laser mounted on either side. It didn't mention the components that made up "the package". I tried to cut and paste it from GB but I didn't figure it out[V][:(!]. I couldn't purchase it w/out knowing what the piece/parts are, and I don't care for lasers. Thanks guys!

    The easiest way I have found to post pic from web sites is to click on the hyperlink open a second web browser window to the site I want then cut or copy the address and then paste it between the the bracketed url.
    then if someone clicks on the under scored address it will take them to the site with the pic!

    Never seen anything like it. From looking at the photos though it looks like the rails are molded with the scope body as one piece. Definately a red dot sight.

    A frind of mine has one of the new halo sight mounted on his 10/22. preety neat sight.

    If it is indeed a real MK IV, it is a steal,....but for some reason,..I am doubtful. I wouldn't know which sight to use with all that stuff clamped on my rifle[;)]

    I'd be REAL surprised if it's even a Leupold. I know, it's busy looking; even minus the laser. I was hoping the tri-rail scope would be more for 100yd. shooting and the flex scope for close/quick target aquisition. I haven't received my gun yet (RRA M4 Tac. Entry), so I'm not sure if it's a free floating barrel. I'm worried about mounting anything to the forearm; hence the observatory[:D]. I've been looking at the Eotech Holosight, but I must say I was intrigued by the possibility of shooting accurately both near and far.
