I think so.

They are blowing out the 1-4x Accupowers all over for <$500.

Great scopes but that illum left a lot to be desired IMO.

First release is non illuminated accupoints. Same glass and coatings, no illumination. Lower price point.
1-4 and a 3-12.

Looks like Midway put the whole lineup on their website.

Looks like a lot of rebranded stuff, plus an Accupower Type FFP 1-6x. But if the Illum sucks as bad as the Accupower, it'll be meh at best.

Their reticle designs tend to suck, too, IMHO.

Yeah but the glass was nice and they were pretty durable - but the reticle was too fine and at times hard to pickup with the lackluster illum.

I really prefer the Vortex PST Gen2 1-6x24 over the Accupower 1-4x24 and sold mine to fund it.

Dang, those new Credo 1-6x and 1-8x scopes are pricey. I had been all in on a 1-8x Credo until I saw the $1,500 retail price on MidwayUSA and realized the segmented circle reticle hadn’t changed any. Here I was thinking Trijicon would finally offer a horseshoe reticle 1-8x for less then $700 retail but looks like I will be taking another look at the new Primary Arms 1-8x FFP Raptor.

I think Trijicon is going to continue to get hammered by NightForce, Vortex, and Kahles at price points above & below what they want for these new optics. Add in the heat from PA and some of the other lower end providers.
