I would like to start with a little history of scopes<\/a>, to level set our understanding. Let\u2019s start with the iron sights that predated scopes. One feature in common among different types of iron sights is that they do not perform any image magnification. Hence, if the user has bad eyesight, or the target is somewhat farther away, they are less effective. The telescopic sight attempts to solve those problems.<\/p>\n

The first telescope was invented by a German-Dutchman named Hans Lippershey in the Netherlands in 1608. Later improvements were made by other users, including the famous Italian scientist, Galileo Galilei. Soon after that, telescopes were quickly co-opted for use in warfare, for tasks such as observing enemy formations, determining where artillery shells are falling, observing enemy ships, etc.<\/p>\n
