Finally, a High Quality compact scope

Cameraland sent me an email introducing a new line of Geman scopes called GPO Centuri. These are compact (9.9 inches) and lightweight (20 oz) and cost less than $600. They are FFP (although I prefer SFP), illuminated reticle and focus down to 10 yards. All the features I've been looking for. I hope someone writes a review soon (Joe?).

I've never heard of GPO, so thank you. These are some really nice looking and performing scopes judging by Joes videos
 
Just saying here that super short scopes tend to have more optical compromises than normal length scopes but the weight savings and compact size might prove to be worth any shortcomings/ ha pun intended??

I suppose if I had a need I'd try one as long as people end up liking them. Been seeing a bunch of tree squirrels when out mountain biking and was wishing I had a super compact light weight backpack carbine. Maybe a project to think about.

Is it airgun rated ??
 
nice if you like FFP , i do not . but yes i will wait for a trusted reviewer .
Sadly ,I’m not so up to date on what first focal plane means vrs second.
can you give me a insite. Most of what I use is 4x12x40 or 3x9x40 older AO TYPE SCOPES.
40 to 50 yards being max as you know ,I shoot springers off hand or tree lean.

That super compact seems pretty heavy for as small as it is 19 oz.
