S&B, USO, night force, swarovski, leupold vx6, Zeiss, all have nice offerings. My requirement is for lightweight so all but Zeiss and swarovski are out in my case... If you don't mind 24-36oz scopes, your options are endless. If you don't need lowlight capabilities, your options expand tremendously and cost drops below $1k.
<400yds, daytime, sporting clays, no low light
OK so not long range shooting. Sporting clays are like 5" in diameter right? I would say the 3-9, 2.5-10, 4-12, scopes would be good if you like variable zoom optics. Otherwise, a 6x, or 10x, or 16x fixed scope could be an option if you don't care for variable scopes. There are so many good brands out there $300- $1200. Vortex PST, leupold vx2 and vx3, Bushnell elite, Zeiss conquest, swfa come immediately to mind. price depends on, reticle design, tube diameter, cosmetics, weight, hunting vs tactical turrets, parallax adjustments, and glass quality.<400yds, daytime, sporting clays, no low light
Anyone looking for a deal on a pocket pistol? Ordered one of these for my wife a couple days ago.

If you're down with Ruger and .380s, that's damn good value right there. Comes with the holster that turns on the laser when you draw it too.

Now, if you have noticed that at 400 yds, your clays are kind of hard to see, you may want to get a scope with more magnification (10-15x top end), better glass, larger objective. This is hard for us to answer because it depends highly on your eyesight and environment at the range.
Anything more than 8x zoom gets kinda hard to use off hand due to shakiness holding the rifle. If u have a bench, then this isn't an issue.
I guess at the top of my list of candidates in no particular order would be swfa ss 10x or 16x, swfa 3-9, leupold vx2 3-9x33 ultralight, leupold vx3 4.5-14, Bushnell 6500 elite 2.5-16, vortex PST 2.5-10.
I like magnification so I'd probably favor the Bushnell due to its decent glass and wide mag range for the price. 2.5 is useful inside of 40 yards, it has parallax adjustment, and 16x will help you actually see what you are trying to shoot.
thanks for all the input! i did a lot of looking and the nikon monarch 3 2.5-10x42 seems like a pretty good scope all around, so that's what i'm going to go with
You ever shoot one of those? I have a .32 ACP Beretta Tomcat that is an absolutely miserable gun to shoot.
I have that viridian green laser.
Its nice. But it was expensive.
Good deal to pass along: Springfield Armory is shipping three free mags and a mag pouch on their Gearup promotion if you buy any pistol from August 1 until the end of October.

Depending on the bundle, you'd have 5-6 magazines just from initial purchase. I might have to add an XDm to my collection.
I'm eyeing the same shotgun, although perhaps with a pistol grip. I'm sorry your legislators are stupid.Guys need your help again- I'm looking for a 12 gauge shot gun, mainly for home defense. I'm not a member of a club which has sporting clays available at this time, so it really only needs one purpose.
I would like to attach a flashlight and potentially a shoulder sling if possible. I also live in CT where we have the "assault weapon" ban which makes have a pistol grip on a semi auto shotgun a felony *sigh* so keep that in mind.
I'm considering the Mossberg Model 930
Gander Mountain has it locally for $50 than CTD, so I'd rather buy there. That begs two questions, why not CTD, and what other online vendors should I check?
