Aimpoint is known for its red dot optics, but in the early 2000s the company decided to develop a 3.5x fixed magnification traditional scope. It was intended for a French military trial, and Aimpoint used their 3x magnifier as the base for building it. I have three different iterations of the project to show, none of which ended up winning the contract.

As an officially old guy (72), it's been fascinating to watch how optical sights have grown into the "must have" since they first showed up way back when. Thanks for helping document this aspect of shooting technology.
