Leica Sport Optics has launched the Leica Fortis Glossy riflescope series, designed for firearm collectors and enthusiasts who demand the finest in both form and function. These hand-polished, high-gloss riflescopes are crafted to complement the rich aesthetics of classic luxury firearms, blending timeless elegance with superior optical and mechanical performance.

The Leica Fortis Glossy riflescopes undergo a meticulous hand-polishing process, lasting over 1.5 hours, performed by artisans with over 20 years of experience. This unique finish matches the high-gloss bluing of luxury rifles, offering a sophisticated look while providing durability and protection against harsh conditions. The result is a scope that enhances the beauty of your firearm and stands the test of time.

The Leica Fortis Glossy series is engineered for exceptional performance and looks and sets new standards in the 6x zoom class with outstanding clarity, high contrast and sharp imaging that ensures reliable detail recognition, even in low-light conditions. The generous field of view is safer and more effective targeting with a wide viewing area. A large exit pupil and nine centimeters of eye relief provide quick target acquisition and added protection during use.

The Leica Fortis Glossy riflescopes are shock-resistant, waterproof and coated for lens protection. This rugged reliability ensures flawless functionality, even after years of heavy use. Leica’s legendary commitment to optical and mechanical prowess guarantees these scopes will perform and look great for generations.

The Leica Fortis Glossy series includes three models tailored for every hunting scenario:

  • 1-6x24i: Designed for driven hunts, featuring an expansive field of view for rapid target acquisition.
  • 8-12x42i: A versatile choice for mountain and hide hunting, ideal for use well into twilight.
  • 2-12x50i: Perfect for low-light conditions, offering exceptional brightness for late dusk and night hunts.

These scopes feature a generous adjustment range, allowing quick transitions between driven hunts and long-range precision shooting. Pair the 1.8-12x42i or 2-12x50i with the Leica Calonox Sight thermal imager for unparalleled performance in the darkest conditions.
