The AR8-IR 1–8×28 FFP is a versatile short-range riflescope designed for shooters who require speed at close distances and usable magnification when distances stretch.
Its 1–8× magnification range allows rapid target acquisition at low power while providing enough magnification for more deliberate shot placement when required. The first focal plane AR1 MIL reticle remains accurate across the magnification range, with a fully illuminated outer ring that aids fast acquisition at low magnification and naturally fades as magnification increases.
Capped 0.2 MIL turrets protect adjustments from accidental movement, making the AR8-IR well suited to rifles that see frequent handling and hard use. The optical system prioritises reticle visibility and clarity across the magnification range, while quick mount reference lines assist with accurate and repeatable mounting.
Designed for dependable performance under normal use and supported locally in South Africa under the SouthPoint Confidence Guarantee, the AR8-IR is a practical LPVO for shooters who want control and predictability without unnecessary complexity.
