À propos de cet audio
We’ve been tossing around LPVO/MPVO for years—so let’s finish the system and make it useful. In this episode I lay out a practical naming convention for tactical optics:
PO – Pistol Optics (micro/open/closed-emitter pistol dots)
NVO – Non-Variable Optics (rifle-rated red dots, holo, prisms, + optional magnifiers)
LPVO – Low-Power Variable Optics (1-4/1-6/1-8/1-10; no parallax knob)
MPVO – Mid-Power Variable Optics (high-1x/2-10/2-12/… with parallax adjustment)
IPVO – Intermediate-Power Variables (3-15/3-18/4-16/2-20; tops out ≤20x)
HPVO – High-Power Variable Optics (≥ ~5-25 and up; ELR/bench/tactical precision)
I also cover why parallax is the line between LPVO and MPVO, where prisms live, why 3-18x isn’t an MPVO, and how hunters can steal the best parts of “tactical boy” glass.
Sound off in the comments: What would you tweak in these definitions?
