The Schmidt & Bender Police Marksman II 5-25x56 is a marvel of design allowing shooters to have a full 2000 meter shooting capacity. It utilizes a special 5 X erector tube allowing this Schmidt & Bender to cover a wider range of applications as compared to the standard 4 X 30mm systems, this is how the 5X to 25X is accomplished. Third turret parallax adjustment is standard with a 10 meter to infinity capability, so the shooter will always be presented with a crisp sight picture. It also comes standard with an illuminated reticle that has a brightness control switch with 11 graduation settings; this allows the shooter to adjust his reticle illumination to match current shooting conditions. Also standard is a double turn elevation knob that gives the shooter an instant reference to where the elevation is set by use of a unique built in color indicator making it nearly impossible to get lost in the adjustment range.
