Griffin Armament Releases New Optic Line

Griffin Armament surprised everyone by releasing an optic line. Known for producing silencers for over 18 years, in the past few years, they have branched out into firearm accessories and full rifle builds designed to complement their silencer line.

With the release of the first two products in their new optics lineup, Griffin is bringing quality, duty-ready optics to consumers at extremely competitive prices.

Developed and tested by former army snipers in Watertown, WI, the Griffin lineup of optics currently has two offerings, with more coming soon: the 1-8x ICO/MIL FFP LPVO and the Griffin Micro Sight Red Dot.  

1-8x ICO/MIL FFP LPVO

The Griffin 1-8x Ideal Carbine Optic (ICO)/MIL LPVO provides users with a practical, advanced target engagement optic for use in all light conditions at a variety of ranges. This optic features Griffin’s proprietary Ideal Carbine Optic MIL/BDC reticle that allows ranging of 19” targets out to 700m. Windage and bullet drop compensation marks allow accurate shot placement for a variety of common centerfire cartridges, including 5.56mm, 7.62x51mm, and 6.5 Creedmoor.

The Griffin 1-8x ICO LPVO is a first focal plane optic that utilizes 1/10th MIL adjustment increments for precise optical adjustments and has 11 brightness settings for use in low light conditions.

“Filling a void in the LPVO category for a functional rapid engagement reticle in an FFP optic is what brought Griffin into optics. Having used a variety of optics in combat environments, I sought to deliver practicality, features, and value.  The goal of this optics lineup was to incorporate custom reticles with increased functionality into popular product segments that have a lot of versatility.  Optical technology has progressed significantly in the past decade, so the timing is right for us to deliver. I’m excited to put our real-world experience into the development of the Griffin optics line in the future.  Look for more from us on this; we are excited to offer 18 years of brand equity and great customer service behind this optic program.” – Austin, Product Development Manager, Griffin Armament
