Scope Guys! Hakko Tac1 - Aimpoint CompML Lookalike

[photomike]

The Hakko TAC-1 or TAC-2??

I saw it here:

http://www.scopesnmore.com/riflescopes4less/pistol/hakko_pistol_sights.htm

bottom of page.

Will contact these guys to see about getting in stock, but thought I'd ask here as well.

Thanks,
Mike

[RRotz]

Hell, let's get a damn, good old fashion GROUP BUY ON!

I'll take 3 of them at a $100 a pop! I'd rather have 3 and put them on all the rifles that I have then get one Aimpoint and have to switch it out all the time........

We should look into contacting HAKKO Japan direct......I bet they're trying to fill military orders, but I hope we could get a few direct......I think the price might be higher with the Yen being inflated........I'm not sure on the state of the Japanese economy right now.

This is the Scope in question: HAKKO TAC1 $109.00 RETAIL!!!

http://scopesandmore.meridian1.net/s/scopesandmore/Images/Products/Large/RSR-HAKTAC1.gif

The Hakko TacPoint single ring configuration is a tactical reflex red dot sight, designed specifically for rapid target acquisition in close proximity. Shorter than its two-ring brother, this 4-3/4” scope is ideal for applications with limited mounting space. This robust aluminum alloy maintube design features precision windage and elevation adjustments, Nitrogen purging for absolute waterproof integrity, and a hard anodized no-glare matte finish. The 5-stage illuminated 4MOA reticle promises quick entrainment even in low light conditions. Comparable to the Aimpoint Comp ML2 at a fraction of the price, this tactical scope is hard to beat. Ships with 30mm Weaver-style mounting ring, flip-up lens caps, & two batteries. This scope is covered by Hakko’s limited lifetime warranty.



This is a picture and description of the TAC2.

http://scopesandmore.meridian1.net/s/scopesandmore/Images/Products/Large/RSR-HAKTAC2.gif

The Hakko TacPoint double ring configuration is a tactical reflex red dot sight. Like the single-rign version, it’s designed specifically for rapid target acquisition in close proximity. At about 6-1/4” in length, this scope may be preferrable when mounting room allows. The robust aluminum alloy maintube design features precision windage and elevation adjustments, Nitrogen purging for absolute waterproof integrity, and a hard anodized no-glare matte finish. The 5-stage illuminated 4MOA reticle promises quick entrainment even in low light conditions. Comparable to the Aimpoint 7000 at a fraction of the price, this tactical scope is hard to beat. Ships with 30mm Weaver-style mounting rings , flip-up lens caps, & two batteries. This scope is covered by Hakko’s limited lifetime warranty.

I noticed at the site that there's mention of "compare to Aimpoint".
I've never heard of Hakko.
What's the performance record of Hakko?
Are these scopes cheap copies?
Where are they made at?
Scopesnmore site doesn't have a manufactuer link for Hakko:

Just noticed this Hakko discussion at FALFiles:

I searched their site about a week ago and didnt see them either.

who would know availibility on these? Anyone who sells scopes now, can you get them??

Whats the next step for this kind of thing?

content of email
Hello,

I recently became aware of some of your red-dot scopes online here at this address:

http://www.scopesnmore.com/riflescopes4less/pistol/hakko_pistol_sights.htm

and have found some individuals interested in buying the Tacpoint scopes, both TAC-1 and TAC-2 models. However this website says that these items are not currently in stock.

I am on an internet forum for FN FAL rifles and want to possibly purchase a few of these scopes and possibly more as other shooters may be interested if we can get a reliable supply and good pricing on your products

you can view our forum here:

www.FALfiles.com

and a link to a current discussion on possibly getting some of your products here:

http://www.falfiles.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&postid=978472#post978472


Please advise as to contacting a U.S. distributor for these scopes or if we can order your products direct from you.

Thank you in advance for your consideration,

Mike Gibson
Dallas, Texas
USA



I'll post their reply as soon as I get it!!

Mike

[John Culver]

Very nice, I'd be interested

[Rascal]

I would be interested in this also! please keep us informed. Thanks

[Bladewurk]

Uhh.me too.

[photomike]

email sent to scopes n more tonite:



Hi,

I left a message on your office machine regarding the Hakko TacPoint 1 and TacPoint2 red dot scopes.

I am on a FN FAL rifle forum at www.falfiles.com and several board members as well as myself were intersted in these scopes in particular.

You can also see a thread discussion on our forum regarding this here:
http://www.falfiles.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=113045


Your website is the only one that we've found that has the scopes listed and even the Hakko Japan company website doesnt list these scopes anyplace that I could find.

I emailed Hakko Japan as to the possible availability of purchasing a quantity of these scopes, but also wanted to ask your company since you had them listed for sale at some point.

Please advise on what we can do to get a possible group buy together for a quantity of either or both scopes. I do not have a solid number of participants as of yet, but if the scopes are made available for purchase, you will no doubt sell many depending on quantity and sale price.

Thank you in advance,

Mike Gibson
Dallas, Tx.





Let's see who bites!

Mike

[RRotz]

good deal, mike. i just pm'd u to see if u had emailed both sources.

maybe these are really new on the market coz the other dot sights and scopes are all over the place but these aimpoint clones seem to be limited to one distributer.

[RRotz]

[photomike]

Good News!!!!

email reply from Hakko Japan:




Dear Mr. Gibson,

Thank you very much for your email of June 28 inquiring about TAC1 and
TAC2.

We are pleased to advise that those two will be available in July.
With best regards,
Yoshinobu Takizawa




cryptic, but at least we'll have a chance to get this thing going. I'll post what I hear back from scopes n more and see if we can get it set up right out of the gate.

Perfect timing as I should be getting my carbine built around the end of the month!!!!!


Mike

[PAmark]

I'll be in for at least one, put me on the list!

[FNnuts]

Put me down for at least 1, maybe 2.

[RRotz]

WOW, gotta love the Japanese for being efficient. I guess I hit the x-ring about them being new on the market.

Maybe his cryptic reply was in Haiku.....

[larphred]

Me want! Aggggghhhhhhhhh (as in Homer S. looking at a beer).

[milgun]

I'd be interested in at least one, possibly 2-3 depending on price.......please keep us updated.
Thanks,

[10-22]

I'd be interested in 2-3,depending on price.

[pmf]

I'd be interested in one too.

I have one of their scopes -- the Bed-35. Its nice, although not military tough. I had it on a FAL and switched it to a Mac M11/9 submachine gun. So, that FAL would look good with a new scope. Incidently, I paid $170 for it, so the $140 price on that site is a good deal.

I think its nicer than the Kobra site I have on an AK, but not as nice as the EOTech I have on another FAL. Its small, so it looks cool on the Mac.

[photomike]

Guys,

Waiting to hear back form Scopes N More as to availability of these and I also emailed Hakko Japan back to find out who their main U.S. distributor is or if we could order direct from the Hakko Japan website.

I'll definitely keep this thread updated.......

ALLRIGHT GUYS, GATHER ROUND!!!!

here is the email I received today from scopes N more WITH GROUP BUY PRICE INCLUDED!!!!!



Mr. Gibson,

Thanks for giving us an opportunity.

Unfortunately, we won't have the TacPoint 1 or TacPoint 2 scope in stock again until the end of July. We are expecting a large shipment then, and both scopes should be included in that shipment, although I don't know for sure how many. It's possible we'll see them before then, but we're not counting on it.

For a group purchase, I can offer prices as follows:

TacPoint 1 - $93.10 each + $7 shipping each
TacPoint 2 - $103.47 each + $7 shipping each

If you'd like, I can let you know when we do have them in stock again. Let me know if I can answer any further questions.

Sincerely,

M. Talley, SNM Admin



I have replied as follows:



M. Talley,

Yes, please let me know when these are about to become available and I will round up as many people on the falfiles forum as possible to put this group buy together.

Thank you so much for your prompt reply, and I look forward to doing business with you soon.

I'm in for two tac-1 scopes.

Thanks,

[Dation]

What is the magnification on these? Is the tac1 1X and the tac2 2X?

[photomike]

I'm not sure on spec, check page one links.

I believe that both are no X as most red dots. The only difference I can tell between the 2 is the TAC 1 uses one mounting ring and is shorter, and the TAC 2 uses 2 rings and is slightly longer. DK for sure.


Did you guys read the AR15.com posts??? Crazy!

one had a review of the TAC 1. definitely check it out.

Ill post when I find out more.

Mike

[48th Highlander]

zero magnification on the 1, 2X on the 2.

[Dation]

I am definately interested in atleast one. I'm just not too sure about which one. Does anyone have a picture with a tac2 on a rifle (maybe even on a FAL :) )

[photomike]

Where did the pics of the Japanese soldiers with these on their weapons get to? those were cool. can whover post them plz repost??

I think it'll give a little more context to seeing the sight on A GUN as opposed to just the generic sales photo we have on the last page.

Thx,

Mike

[Dation]

Thanks RRotz. Can you find me one with the tac2 though?

[larphred]

I live near Salt Lake where Nightvisionweb is located and kinda know the guys who run it. Really nice Russians. For comparison, I called them and they said their normal price is $130 and $140 for TAC-1 and TAC-2. They said they'd knock off 20% for group of 20-30 but might negotiate if I got real numbers. He said supply was the problem--they've got a few in stock and are expecting a shipment in 2 weeks.
Photomike and Texas Tactical--what are the numbers involved in a group buy, i.e. how many necessary for those prices?
I'm not trying to cut into anyone's group buy here, but the more info. we have, the better off we are.

[RRotz]

Numbers stand at 24.

We have until the end of July to get as many as possible to get the lowest possible price on them coz of quantity. We're the ones with the bargaining power here coz we can get all the money together for a purchase instead of a consignment.....so it behooves us to pimp this deal to the fullest extent.

So, it benefits us to keep this thread going, keep all options open, keep adding to the numbers and get it above 100 pieces.

Then, when the boatload comes in, we give two weeks notice to get the funds in......or work with the person/organization we choose to deal with so people can send in cash, checks, money orders and credit card.

I think it's about time we move this thread into the Group Buy Forum.....but it needs to all be moved intact.

I'll contact Jen and see if she can move it for us.

[photomike]

Hey,

If anyone can beat the Scopes N More price I'm all for it. I was quoted no min/max number of participants from Scopes N More.

I've posted all communication so everyone could see what was up.


Thanks for calling nightvisionweb.com, larphred

At 20% the TAC1 would be $104. Is this shipping included? or would it be individual actual shipping?

If we can get the retailer to work with us as far as the $$$ transaction goes it would be great. I'd rather be able to order direct and give say my FALfiles member # or send copy of GB email direct to get the discount applied. I've got WAY too much stuff going on (I own my own business)to try to get everyone's money together. I wouldnt be able to put 110% into it, and everyone here deserves that.

That being said, if someone else wants to do it, I'm cool with it though.

Definitely progress this thread into GB mode if we can. Im down for 1 TAC-1 for now.

Let's get it on!!!!

Mike


Just got this from Scopes N More:



Mr. Gibson,

We will let you know as soon as we have them in stock again.

Sincerely,

M. Talley, SNM Admin



Sweeeeeet!!!

[Texas Tactical]

The prices listed are good for anyone on the FAL Files, if you guys do a group buy on 15 or more I will drop the prices another $5 per scope shipping included.

[maz]

i am in for one, count me in. (25):)

[Rascal]

Well I was interested before, but now I'm in for a Tac 2
Thanks to all for getting this started! :bow:

[Tony.]

I am good for 1 Tac-1

[larphred]

I'm beginning to like Texas Tactical. How many do you have in stock or if limited, what is your projection time for delivery? Thanks.

[chrsdwns]

I was at a local shop and they had the Tac1 in stock. It looked really nice and seemed comparable to the Aimpoint with fewer brightness settings. A real deal for around 100.00 and change. They also had a Hakko version of the Trijicon ACOG with the ranging and bullet drop compensation cross hairs minus the tritium illumination feature. It was really nice too and since the illuminated reticle on this ACOG model is only visible in the dark I don't think it's much of a loss. Does anyone know it they still produce these? The price was around $300.00

[lawdog]

Texas Tactical, I'm in for one Tac2

[Viper5194]

Nice to see pics of my toys all over the place =) as for the Tacpoint its a keeper. One guy on AR15.com actualy mounted it and beat the crap out of it to see how well it held zero. Actualy did very well. Good luck on the group buy, if the Tac2 is actualy a 2x sight i may end up buyinf one of those as well.........

Viper out..........

[2SONMIKE]

I'm in for 1, maybe 2. You gotta love group buys!

Mike

[SgtRock2]

I'm in for a Tac1.

[mtang45]

I'll take a Tac2

[Goju]

Thanks for getting this together. If the TAC2 is 2x, I'm definately in for 1.

[fal fiend]

1 tac 2 please..if these are nice,,i;m sure another group buy is in order:biggrin:

[RRotz]

This is a picture and description of the TAC2.

http://scopesandmore.meridian1.net/s/scopesandmore/Images/Products/Large/RSR-HAKTAC2.gif

The Hakko TacPoint double ring configuration is a tactical reflex red dot sight. Like the single-rign version, it’s designed specifically for rapid target acquisition in close proximity. At about 6-1/4” in length, this scope may be preferrable when mounting room allows. The robust aluminum alloy maintube design features precision windage and elevation adjustments, Nitrogen purging for absolute waterproof integrity, and a hard anodized no-glare matte finish. The 5-stage illuminated 4MOA reticle promises quick entrainment even in low light conditions. Comparable to the Aimpoint 7000 at a fraction of the price, this tactical scope is hard to beat. Ships with 30mm Weaver-style mounting rings , flip-up lens caps, & two batteries. This scope is covered by Hakko’s limited lifetime warranty.

[Rascal]

Please excuse me ignorance, but will rings for a weaver rail also fit on a picatinny rail? My FAL has the Tapco stripper clip cover and it has the picatinny rails, I just need to know if I also need to buy new rings, as the Tac 2 has rings for the weaver.

[bigant]

Just a FYI, the aimpoint 2x does not have the greatest of reviews...so therefore I would think the same for the 2x Tac 2. I just wanted to let you know about this, so that your happy with your purchase....

Also it would be nice if the group buy went thourgh a dealer who supports the falfiles! 95.00 Shipped by Texas Tactical is a great deal, plus he supports the files!

Just did some reading on AR15 and what shocked me was that Hakko makes NXS optics and everyone knows that NXS has great products.....so you know that your getting good quality.

Just my
.02

Bigant

[ANON]

I'm in for a Tac1 preferably from Texas Tactical.

[Rascal]

I wasn't aware that the Tac2 was a 2x scope. I liked it because the 2 ring mounts, in my mind would be more secure. Can someone varify that the Tac 2 is infact a 2x output?

[Dation]

bigant- What model aimpoint 2x has bad reviews? The website said it compares to the aimpoint 7000, looks kind of like the 7000sc model to me. Has anyone used the tac2 or heard anything about them. I'm assuming that all the good reviews are for the tac1 so far.

[Texas Tactical]

Here's what they come to with the sales tax for Texas residents:
TAC-1 $102.84
TAC-2 $113.66

[NewtoFals]

Texas tactical i'm in for 1 tac1. When will you see them?

[photomike]

guys,

I plan on getting my TAC1 from Scopes N More when the scopes come in.

They were the original contact for this group buy.

I'm not an anti Files supporter, but they were the first ones to give us an offer.

Mike

[NewtoFals]

Texas tactical maybe you should start your own thread.......just so we don't hijack this one any further.

As far as who i will buy from.....well i support those that support us. :)

[Brian S]

I'd be in for one TAC-1 if we get the price to $100 or less delivered.

[NEtracker]

Would like a TAC-1 at the LOWEST price..:cool:

[Calvert1]

The 2x Aimpoint gets lambasted pretty regularly on the boards. Magnification on a red-dot sight slows down target acquisition and reduces field of view. If you want magnification, then the ACOG's or more traditional scopes are preferred.

The single ring setups for Aimpoint sights are very solid and stable.

[Dation]

What would be the effective range on a tac1 ~300 yards? I think it's only as good as your peepers right? Would the tac1 be acceptable for hunting/varmint shooting?

[Mad Dog 7.62]

Jeez, I am confused. Who is running this thing? I am in for TWO of the TAC1's if I can figure out who is going to do the group buy.
MD

[Texas Tactical]

There seems to be some confusion as to who is running the group buy and who is supplying the Hakko's. I am not sure who is handling this group buy, I just wanted to throw our prices out there to offer the option.

My apologies if I was out of line posting to this thread.

The dot is 4MOA which means it will cover approx 12" at 300yds, so it's not well suited for long range varmint hunting. These sights are primarily designed for CQB and hitting a man-sized target at medium ranges.

[DVC10mm]

Hey,

The Tacpoint looks like a good deal! Put me down for 3 Tac-1s if the
price is about 100.00 each.:cool:

Cheers,

I'm in for 1 tac-1, preferable texas tactical. gotta support those that support you.

[Sig220]

I would be interested in a Tac-1.

[Dation]

How much smaller is the field of view on the tac2?

[tac-40]

OKAY, is this a group buy or is it a wannabe?

Texas Tactical, I checked out your web site and it does not list these scopes. While you have good prices here, do you have the scopes in stock. Or do you have another thread listing a buy for these scopes there.

Inquiring minds want to know.

weaver rails are smaller than pic rails.

weaver mounts work with pic rails.
pic mounts are too big for weaver rails.

hope tyhis helps

[fizassist]

If we're talking ~$100 shipped for the tacpoint 1, I'll definitely take 2!

There is much demand for this sight at your price of $95 shipped.

Are you going to be able to meet demand?

Recent import from arfcom here,

TT, or anyone.. do either of these scopes cowitness with the AR15's sights with the stock rings? I'd like to get the TAC-2, but it seems it might lay too low and superimpose the dot onto the front sight base...

Thanks, hope to get in on this soon...

HI,GUYS I'M NEW IN THE FORUM AND I PLACED MY ORDER FOR THE TACPIONT 1 WITH TEXAS TACTICAL. THANKS .

[strick909]

Hey guys,
I joined FAL Files for the group buy on this, but now that I found it, I think I will stick around.:)
BTW, the Tac-2 is NOT magnified. They are both 1x red dot sights and not scopes. The only difference is the length of the sight. I had called two other dealers mentioned in this thread and the both told me that the Tac-1 was the best choice for an AR. I would guess it would be better for an FAL too.

[Bigchoad]

Great Deal
I'm in
Order placed and thank you

When will these ship? [:D]

Very odd, I posted that I had put in an order for one but that post has disappered. Well, I still have my receipt from your website.

So same question as Gloftoe- ETA and when will they ship? Last I heard was end of July, which by my count is today for another 22 hours ;)

I think that this has all been very clear that the shipping time was not set in stone, participating in a group buy isn't like just ordering from somewhere, it's a much looser schedule and those that choose to play just have to relax, and wait for the goodies to show up. Setting your hopes on specific dates or time frames will just give you heartburn.

Patience my friends.

Yeah just relax guys, they get here when they get here......NO ONE GAVE AN ACTUAL DATE. However any new news on these from texas tactical is greatly appreciated when it becomes available.

Hello, I'm new to the red dot sights. What is the eye relief on these sights or does it matter? :confused: I know how hard it is to get a good sight picture on a regular scope that doesn't have much eye relief. If it has good sight relief put me down for a TAC 1 for my M1 Carbine. Thanks...TheTodd

tic toc, tic toc, tic toc :rolleyes: :|

I am definitley good for a TAC-1.

I don't care who can beat who by a couple dollars... Does anyone know who actually HAS THE SCOPES IN STOCK SO I CAN JUST BUY ONE?

[M4-guy]

New guy here. I placed my order w/ Texas Tactical a few weeks ago, and as of today my CC has not yet been charged. I'm still looking for a mount for a flat top AR, so I'm in no rush.
Any recommendations for an inexpensive cantilver mount?

The rumor floating around is that the importer has not received them yet. They could be caught in customs. So, right now no one has them that I know of. I have sent E-mails to Texas Tactical and have not heard anything back. That sucks, because they are about 30 miles from me and I could pick one up within a day or two. I'll up date when I hear something and hopefullt , Texas Tactical will post something soon.

They did reply yesterday:

To our knowledge NO ONE has them in stock right now and they are somewhere between here and there. That is unfortunately the best answer we can give at this time and we do not know when they'll be here but will post as soon as we have some reliable information in hand as to delivery dates.

All updates are being posted to the Hakko thread in the marketplace forum. This is the easist way for us to keep everyone up to date as to the status and delivery of the Hakko TAC scopes.

[sandguard]

It's easier to track you here in "group buy." You're three to four pages down in the marketplace.

[victor3ranger]

I have tried a couple times to confirm my order that was done thru the on-line site but so far nobody will return my e-mails.
Any word as to a possible delivery date for the scopes??

[Texas Tactical]

victor3ranger - Please PM me your details and I will verify the order came thru.

We do not yet have an update on these. We are checking daily on the status and will let everyone know as soon as we have word that the scopes are on the way.

Put my order in for a TAC 1. Your web page list it for $104.95 instead of the $95.00 listed above. My total came to $113.30 I know you state that the shipping wont be added when the credit card is charged, but was just wondering about the sale price of $104.95 instead of the group buy for $95.00
I have ordered from you in the past and have had nothing but good luck. I'm sure this is something that i probably overlooked, and my card will only be billed for the $95.00
Thank you for the great deal!

[Texas Tactical]

It looks like we have 18 extra TAC-1's that have not been sold yet. We will continue to honor the $95 shipped price on these until we are sold out. We do not know when these will be available again so now's the time to buy if you want one!

[Texas Tactical]

sportsnut: your order was received and we will honor the $95 shipped price for all FAL Files members. We have now publicly posted these on our website for everyone to order hence the price change on our site. If you are a FAL Files member you can still order thru our website at the $95 shipped price. Be sure to note that you are a FAL Files member in the special instructions section on the bottom of the page you enter your address information.
