Description

Designated ‘F1’ to mark its lenses’ optical configuration, the Cobra will prove popular with shooters who favor the less complicated sight picture offered by FFP scopes, where the relationship between target and crosshair size remains constant throughout the scope’s entire magnification range. This is particularly advantageous when allowing hold-over and hold-under on targets – scenarios aided further by MTC’s multi-stadia SCB2 crosshair that provides numerous aiming points to counter trajectory and windage deviation.

The Cobra F1’s First Focal Plane crosshair has MIL click-stop adjustments (1 click = 1cm @100m) via lockable, finger-adjustable elevation and windage turrets, and can also be illuminated to one of 6 intensity settings to suit any lighting condition in the field or on the range. The new F1 also boasts sidewheel parallax adjustment to eliminate aiming errors and assist in range estimation from 10m to infinity.
To maximize light transmission and maintain a bright sight picture, the specially-coated lenses of the 50mm diameter objective have been matched to an oversize, 30mm tube – and besides a fast-focus eye-piece, the Cobra F1 also ships with the standard magnetic, flip-up lens covers with inbuilt magnifying pane to assist with turret scale reading.



Features

  • First Focal Plane reticle: aim-points do not change with magnification adjustment
  • Glass-etched crosshair: design exclusive to MTC Optics
  • Edge-to-edge multi-coated lenses: bright, clear picture quality
  • Side parallax adjustment: eliminates parallax error and assists in range-finding
  • 10-yard minimum focus: suitable for airgun use and ultra-close-range shooting
  • Reticle illumination: assists with tricky background and lighting scenarios
  • 30mm body tube: more substantial build quality and light transmission
  • Fully water, fog and shock proof: increases longevity of the scope
  • Nitrogen purged: internal regulation of scope’s high-end performance

Send one to Joe Rhea if you want feedback, someone we all trust.

I've been looking at this scope since the shot show. Who the hell has one in stock? Trenier thought he'd have them in April...

Yup, someone needs to give one to Joe if they have any confidence in the product. It's getting to the point when I look at scopes the first thing I do is see what Joe has to say about them. Thanks Joe!!
 
So, I've been looking at this scope -- and found the manufacturer's webpage is a beautiful contradiction.

And the sellers's webpages all follow suit, contradicting each other and often contradicting themselves... LOL 😂



The turrets -- are the MOA or MIL?!?!

MIL -- say the following sellers/ reviewers:

https://www.airgunsofarizona.com/scopes/mtc-optics-cobra-4-16x50-f1-scope/
https://airgunwire.com/a-quality-airgun-optic-mtc-cobra-f1-4-16x50/
https://www.airgunnation.com/topic/all-new-mtc-optics-cobra-f1-have-now-hit-the-u-s/

MOA -- say the following sellers/ reviewers:

https://www.opticsplanet.com/mtc-optics-cobra-f1-4-16x50-riflescope.html
https://hardairmagazine.com/news/full-details-new-mtc-cobra-4-16x50-f1-first-focal-plane-scope/

PA can describe all the MIL features of the scope, and in the product title can still call it a MOA scope...

But no worries -- all is well -- the manufacturer must know...! Here's their take if their turrets are MOA or MIL: http://mtcoptics.com/cobra-f1/

9 Photos clearly show the scope has MOA turrets. Great! (the confusion)

And the descriptions states clearly: "The Cobra F1’s First Focal Plane crosshair has MIL click-stop adjustments (1 click = 1cm @100m) via lockable, finger-adjustable elevation and windage turrets." = Even greater!! (the confusion)

Go figure. Maybe you'll figure it out before the manufacturer will.... 😂
