You can pay a lot more for a quality riflescope, but you'll be hard pressed to buy one that is better built than the new Top-Angle Series scopes now available from Leatherwood/Hi-Lux Optics. One thing is for certain, you won't find a scope with as many great features - even at twice the price!

Leatherwood/Hi-Lux Optics is now adding the Malcolm 8X USMC-SNIPER model to its Wm. Malcolm line of vintage style riflescopes. Not only will this scope match the originals for extremely precise adjustment of windage and elevation, the new made scope also offers the advantages of modern lens making, with fully multi-coated lens surfaces for maximum light transmission. This scope offers the brightest, clearest, and sharpest optics ever in a riflescope of this design. The scope will be marked with the Wm. Malcolm name over the USMC-SNIPER model designation, and each will be serial numbered - as were the original USMC models.

NORTH AMERICAN MUZZLELOADER HUNTING files a discrimination complaint with the U.S. Department of the Interior, against 11 state wildlife agencies which continue to deny muzzleloading hunters the right to use a telescopic sight during the muzzleloader big game seasons.

Hi-Lux Optics is now adding a new-made version of this scope - which has been totally re-engineered from the inside out to produce a scope that is far superior to the originals. While it is being introduced primarily for those wanting to shoot a fairly authentic looking and shooting M1903A4 in Vintage Sniper Rifle competition

Honest 200-yard muzzleloader accuracy and game-taking performance did not begin with the introduction of the modern in-line ignition rifle. Serious muzzleloader shooters and hunters of the 1840s and 1850s turned to newly developed elongated conical bullets, and the new fast-twist bore rifles developed to shoot them, to enjoy that level of performance almost 150 years before the introduction of the Knight MK-85. And to better tap that level of performance, a few of those rifle makers also became the first riflescope makers. Some of the rifles and loads of that period could regularly keep 10 shots inside of 2 inches at 40 rods (220 yards).

The Leatherwood Uni-Dial  is a scope of conventional design, built with a very unique feature.  This exceptional rifle scope can be programmed for the zero to be "on" at ten different points down range.  The elevation turret features a series of (10) moveable flags, or indicators, and each can be sighted for the rifle to be "on" at different ranges. 

Leatherwood/Hi-Lux Optics displayed their new MaxTac Dot red-dot sight at SHOT Show 2014. This new red-dot packs a lot of features - some of which include a robust machined aluminum housing, dual-mode digital illumination control, built-in picatinny mount and a screw-on anti-reflective filter comes with the sight.

Hi-Lux Optics is now recreating this 1960's era scope for all of those "old school" sharpshooters among us, those who take the time to know the trajectory of the loads they shoot. However, Hi-Lux Optics has made some major internal improvements.

The finishing touches are now being made to this recreation of a vintage scope from the past, and should be on display at the SHOT Show. 

Hi-Lux Optics has answered the call for the CMR scope designed for the standard AK47 service round. The new CMR-AK762 is identical in every way to the original CMR1-4x24mm model, except for the reticle, which has been designed around the ballistics of the 7.62x39mm cartridge. Like all Hi-Lux Optics scopes, the CMR-AK762 comes with fully multi-coated lenses for maximum light transmission. Available in matte blue black finish only, and comes with flip up lens covers.

Feature for feature, the Hi-Lux Optics PRO 30mm riflescopes easily compare to many higher priced models costing twice as much - or more. The crafting of this model begins with a solid one-piece 30mm diameter high tensile strength aluminum tube

Versatile...Simple...Easy...and Reliable all describe the new TAC-DOT reflex type red-dot sight from Hi-Lux Optics.  Here is a sight that is right at home on a variety of firearms - AR style rifles, most any big game rifle, shotguns, handguns, even on modern muzzleloading big game rifles.

Those shooters who have looked through the OD green finished militarized version of what the company has dubbed the M40 USMC riflescope, which features the same reticle as the original, have voiced how much they would like to see the same scope, featuring the same ranging system, offered for today's big game hunter. Hi-Lux Optics listened, and is now introducing a black finished sporting version of the scope - the M40 Tactical Hunter.

This 3-9x40mm hunting scope is built with the same ranging system that Marine Corps snipers relied on in Vietnam - only it has been improved.
