List of products by brand Vector Optics

Vector Optics is a Chinese maker of sights and optics, in business since 2007. Founder Xusheng Shen began selling scopes in 2005 alongside his day job and went full time in 2007 under the name Sunclear. An American partner suggested today's name. A Utah branch followed in 2014.

It makes optics for hunting, defence, sport and competition. Its scopes and red dots belong under our sights, its rings and mounts under gun accessories. The maker's own tiers put Centurion at entry level, Maverick as the classic line, and Frenzy and Scrapper at the premium end. A Centurion may be enough for a reservist's first sight. Riflescopes include the Veyron, Hugo and Matiz. Hunters also get Forester binoculars and a rangefinder.

Recoil and calibre decide whether a cheaper model will hold up. If unsure, tell us which gun the sight goes on and we will talk it through.
