The Trijicon Credo 1-8x28mm delivers precision optics with versatile magnification range for tactical applications and precision shooting. This variable power riflescope combines Japanese glass quality with American engineering to provide clear target acquisition from close quarters to extended range engagements.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard variable scopes that compromise low-light performance for magnification range, the Credo maintains exceptional light transmission across its entire 1-8x zoom range. The 28mm objective lens paired with fully multi-coated lenses delivers 89% light transmission. The 34mm main tube provides 120 MOA of total elevation and windage adjustment range, significantly more than typical 30mm tube scopes.
Key Features
- 1-8x variable magnification with true 1x for both-eyes-open shooting
- MRAD segmented circle reticle with red/green LED illumination and 11 brightness settings
- 34mm aircraft-grade aluminum tube with matte black hard-coat anodized finish
- Fully multi-coated lenses with 89% light transmission for low-light performance
- 120 MOA total adjustment range with tactile, audible 0.1 MRAD clicks
- Waterproof to 20 meters and nitrogen purged for fog-proof operation
- Compatible with standard 34mm scope rings and Picatinny rail systems
Field performance demonstrates consistent tracking and return-to-zero capability under recoil from magnum cartridges and rapid-fire sequences. The scope maintains zero through temperature extremes from -40°F to 160°F. Law enforcement and competitive shooters report reliable function in adverse weather conditions including heavy rain and dusty environments. The illuminated reticle provides fast target acquisition in low-light conditions while remaining invisible to night vision equipment.
