There is no such thing as mass production at Nightforce. Only a skilled human eye and experienced hands are sensitive enough to perform many of the critical operations involved in assembling a precision optical instrument. Before they leave the factory Nightforce scopes are subjected to conditions far beyond most anything you will ever encounter in the field. During our impact tests riflescopes must endure repeated impacts of over 1200 Gs of force on multiple axes. After each severe impact the scope is hand-checked for tracking accuracy and overall integrity. We rigorously test and inspect to ensure your Nightforce will work when you need it most.
