    Anyone have any experience with them firsthand?

    Just bought a green dot, 1-6x and mount. Screaming deal (one of those where you wait for the shipping notification with bated breath), will update with my own experience once I shoot them.

    I heard enough to feel comfortable enough to "send it," as it were, and when I emailed the marketing director (on New Year's Day no less) he personally responded and answered questions I had same day.

    I haven't seen or handled any of their products but... Their marketing guy posts on AR15.com quite a bit. I've seen some of his posts regarding Swampfox that kinda made me do a :scratch: and a :n00b: with a little :bs: thrown in, a little too good to be true IYKWIM.

    Rebranded imports, proceed with caution
    I don't need Nightforce or even Trijicon (surprised by the prices on their LPVOs actually, not sure where they are made though), and the other options are Primary Arms, Vortex, etc. All of which are also imports. Having owned a couple Vortex products and played with a few more, that'll be a closer comparison once my stuff is in I think.

    I bought the Tomahawks for a screaming deal at NRAAM 2019. Put them on a pair of Colt M6721s in Contingency. Working out great.

    Are there better optics? Yes.

    Does the Tomahawk do everything I need it to do from 0 to 200ish? Yes.

    It is easy to manipulate, but bigger tube than I find optimal.

    It is good enough that I am looking at the Arrowheads as optics on my Emergency triad.

    I've been eyeballing the Swampfox Arrowhead line for a while now and finally broke down and ordered one to try. I wanted the 1-8 but ordered the 1-6 by mistake. I was going back and forth comparing specs on both and accidentally put the 1-6 in the cart and submitted the order before I realized it. Sent an email the minute I realized my mistake, so I'll get to (hopefully) experience their customer service arm before I even get it in.

    Looking forward to see if it actually lives up to the hype it's been getting on YouTube reviews.
