    This constitutes a violation of the prenup, you'll be hearing from my lawyer.

    Everyone should own an Elcan at least once so we can achieve collective consciousness on why its so mid.

    Elcan engineer here... Unfortunately I'm in no position to offer you a sponsorship, but I and the rest of the engineering team appreciate the love! Nice video, keep up the good work.

    There are two kinds of people. Those who love the Elcan and those who probably can’t afford one but are like “meh” when they see it.

    Protip: Elcan is Spanish for "The Can."

    Love the Elcan. Worked great for me in Afghanistan so it was a no brainer to put it on my personal rifle. There’s better options for the steep price for sure, but experience with the optic and my own personal mission set was what got me to go back to it.

    The ELCAN needs no defense. Buy once, cry once. I've used the ELCAN since the early years of GWOT. If I was able to pick it, I used it. The ELCAN rules all.

    I'm not a fan of the Elcan itself, but I am a fan of the concept, and am really surprised nobody else has done their own take on it.

    ELCAN was designed by Raytheon back in 2010. I would love to see what a 2023 update would look like.

    As someone who never uses 2-5 on my lpvo an elcan is exactly what I need. Having used it extensively on both a 249 and 240 I came to love it despite its downsides. If PA could make a prismatic 1-6 that was more affordable while sacrificing some of its weight and invincibility I would be all over it.

    I’ve used these overseas, and loved them. But I definitely see why people view this as “mid”. I am happy to see it get love.

    Love my Elcan. Bought brand new to make sure I didn’t get something someone beat the shit out of. Came with a ARD and caps. Don’t regret it one bit. Glass is clear and reticle is great. Red dot is bright like the aimpoint T2. It truly feels like it’s built like a tank

  • @TheFrayman

    If you're in combat, and most of your aren't, this is the best optic out there on a mobile .308 platform.

    Bought one a while back because of the iconic nature of it. Ended up getting a second one and now a third 1.5/6. Can honestly say I love them. I also have many other top tier optics and for something with magnification, they are my “go-to” without question.

    The elcan is seriously the whole reason I got into ARs in the first place. I remember back in 2009 I was looking through pictures and found this on several rifles. It took me a long while to figure out the exact name of it and worked towards setting up my rifle just like a block 1 with the elcan. I've been using it for the past 14 years and while I admit I did try the ACOG and all that, they just don't quite match the feel of an elcan to me. It hasn't failed me once. I upgraded it to the 2032 version recently as the original ones I had were the 1/3N batteries. To be fair, I think in the 11 years that I owned it before I switched, I only remember chaning the battery just once because it has this funny carboard insert that I thought was to be removed.
