ESTABLISHING EYE RELIEF ON HANDGUN SCOPES
Since handguns are typically fired from an arms-extended position,
eye relief is less of a safety issue than with riflescopes. However, it’s
still important to get the eye relief right for you.
1. Holding the handgun in your normal shooting stance, position
the scope in the rings to achieve a full field-of-view.
2. Proceed to COMPLETING THE INSTALLATION.
The eye relief of handgun scopes is more forgiving than that of rifle-
scopes. Nevertheless, it is important that the eye relief is compatible
with your shooting style.
