The MINOX ZA3 and ZA5 Riflescopes

Deciding which Riflescopes to own can be daunting.
Perhaps the single-most important hunting gear
you’ll ever purchase, there are dozens of brands
from which to choose, each with seemingly endless

each claiming the “best” this or the “most” that.

Riflescope s with the features hunters want most.
Like glass f rom legendary German glass specialist
SCHOTT, fully multi-coated lens elements, precise
windage and elevation adjustments, up to 5 times
magnification zoom ranges, and argon-purged water
and fog-proof design – all at surprisingly af fordable
price points. Plus, MINOX backs each Riflescope with
a comprehensive Full Coverage Lifetime Warrant y
and the heritage of one of Germany’s premier sport
optics companies. For the uncompromising shooter,
MINOX Riflescopes stand distinctly alone in providing
uncompromising value.
