Safariland Optics

Many scope companies have produced hold-over type scope reticles, but none has offered one so simple to use.

Continuing the mantra of “Innovation Not Imitation™” established by Safariland years ago, these scopes were designed by shooters, for shooters, making it easy for all users to shoot accurately from close quarters to long range, by simply lining up the numbers and firing. The Rapid Reticle™ optics line was originally developed in 2003 by John Pride and Mickey Fowler. John Pride, a retired Los Angeles Police Detective, also worked as a Forensic Firearms Expert and Bomb Technician with the Bomb Squad. A renowned competitive shooter he has won 20 major matches throughout the world. Mickey Fowler was co-owner of International Shootists, a firearms training school, and is internationally known as a top notch firearms instructor. Also a renowned competitive action shooter, he is a 4-time Bianchi Cup winner and a one-time Steel Challenge champion.
