/k/, what is the best 3.4x reticle style?

I'm trying to recreate some / make my own

Personally, I love a simple dot in the middle of the scope, but it does miss out on drop/range estimation

But the problem with adding that to the reticle is it clutters up your view.

So what kind of design has the best overall combination?

>3.4x
why exactly that?

>>30091474
apparently it's the most common magnification for combat rifles

Other than the Elcan C79 that Canada and Denmark still use. I don't know of many other optics that use 3.4x.

Dutch switched theirs for a an Aimpoint 3x magnifier, which is a similar setup to what Norway and Sweden use.

German G36s had an inbuilt 3.5x but the current issue rifle optic is a Zeiss 4x.
Export G36s were 1.5x, as are AUGs

The US and UK use 4x ACOG and Elcan Specter variants (previously there was SUSAT for the UK)

I thought magnifiers were a meme. Why do the Nords use them instead of a fixed or variable scope?

Because Aimpoint are Nords, probably. Politics and shit.

Seems that most troops in these countries choose to use the red-dot on its own though, and don't affix the issued magnifier very often.

there is no 3.4x sight in any call of duty


that is battlefield 4, you fucking idiot.

You're dumb.

Are you seriously ass mad about that?

Of course he is; 13-year-olds on the Internet get mad about all kinds of stupid shit.

Think the IDF like to use Aimpoint/misc red dot with 3x magnifiers too.
