Sector Optics has introduced its first standalone laser range finder, the F1. With a healthy amount of technology incorporated from its T2 Thermal Imager/Rangefinder, the F1 Rangefinder promises an equivalent laser rangefinder in a standalone product. With a shape reminiscent of a small flashlight, the F1 transforms any riflescope into a laser rangefinding one, with a display giving both linear range and horizontal equivalent distances over 1000 yards. Entirely powered by a CR123 battery, the unit keeps a light weight in an effort to not unbalance either scope or rifle. 

The F1 Rangefinder not only mounts to any riflescope, but can be integrated with the Sector Optics G1 ID 1-8X 24 mm riflescope and its built-in internal display. For more information on the F1 rangefinder, available this summer, please visit sectoroptics.comMSRP: $1,049.99
