Russian Binoculars - reasonable price and high quality

Most Russian binoculars on the market are military binoculars, so they are of the exceptional quality. The USSR Company located in Burdett, New York imports Russian binoculars and stocks real issue items that are low priced. Some of the Russian binoculars come straight from the military warehouses in Russia and so, are of good quality. There are two special Russian binoculars that this company has imported and which deserve to be talked about, in some detail. These Russian binoculars are 8x30 and 12x50 pieces.

Russian military binoculars for civil use

The first one was the 8x30 Russian military binocular that seemed to be, for all practical purposes, of the highest quality. Its case was made out of leather and had a good finish and the 8x30 binoculars, though they were excellent, still reminded one of forty year old Zeiss binoculars. Just like those forty old Zeiss binoculars, this binocular was well made and perfect looking and, when viewing them through the lenses, it gave perfect view and the glass finish was excellent, very clear right down to the edges.

Which Russian binoculars are best?

This 8x30 Russian binocular was equipped with reticule in the Mil scale which is in five Mils or 18” per hundred yards, between each line. When trying out the adjustments this Russian binocular was found to handle smoothly and stayed fixed in the field. The reason behind it reminding one of the Zeiss binoculars is that it is based on their original designs. The cost of such a binocular is around five hundred dollars though there are bargain buys available for just seventy-five dollars.

On the other hand, the 12x50 was better designed and had superior workmanship and the quality was fine, even though the packaging was no more than utilitarian. These Russian binoculars were stored in hard plastic cases and the binocular itself, had the same reticule as the 8x30, with five mil marks. In the adjustment department it was the equal of the 8x30 though not as smooth and these binoculars were large, though lightweight. They can be purchased for just ninety dollars and are good value for money.

8x30 is the most popular binoculars from Russia

The 8x30 are high performance Russian binoculars that can be used in the field even though they are not as good as the higher valued Swarovski, but the difference is more in cost, rather than in functionality. The 12x50s are excellent Russian binoculars though they are too powerful for most situations and can be used for field scanning even though their field of vision is rather limited.
