Description
Black Owl Gear 1.5-6×24 Optic Fibre Scope (BO-SSC3201-BK – Red – Black)
The Black Owl Gear 1.5-6×24 Optic Fibre Scope, model BO-SSC3201-BK, is a variable magnification airsoft scope with a 24mm objective lens, a black finish and an optic fibre illuminated red reticle. The magnification adjusts from 1.5x to 6x, so you can set it to suit the distance you are engaging at.
Black Owl Gear produces affordable optics for airsoft players. Retailers list this Black Owl Gear model as an SSC Short Dot style scope with fibre-optic illumination. A colour-lit reticle is easier to pick out against dark woodland backgrounds than a plain black one, helping you get on target faster.
Magnification and reticle
At 1.5x the scope is close to a red dot in use, giving a wide view for short-range targets, while turning up to 6x lets you pick out players hiding in hedgerows or behind cover further away. That makes a low-power variable like this a sensible all-rounder for a designated marksman role or a general-purpose rifle.
Optic fibre illumination uses a fibre element to light the reticle in red. Check the product images for the reticle pattern and the scope’s controls before ordering.
Mounting and zeroing
Scope rings or a mount are needed to fit a tube scope to your rail; check the images to see whether rings are shown with this scope, and if not, choose rings that suit both the scope tube and your rail. Set the scope so you get a full, clear picture with your head in its natural position on the stock, without craning forward or back.
Set your hop-up first so your BBs fly flat, then adjust the scope’s windage and elevation to match your point of impact at your preferred zero distance. Because BBs are slow and affected by wind, practise at different ranges to learn where they land.

Compatibility
Suitable for airsoft rifles with a rail and room to mount a full-length scope, such as sniper rifles, DMRs and AEGs. You will need rings or a mount to suit your rail; most airsoft replicas use 20mm rails, but some sniper rifles use 11mm dovetails, so check yours before buying mounts.
Care and maintenance
Clean the lenses with a soft lens cloth or lens pen, and blow or brush grit off first so you do not scratch the coating. Avoid household glass cleaners and rough fabrics.
Fit the caps or a lens protector when the sight is not in use, as BB strikes can mark or crack exposed glass. Store the sight dry, and if it has a battery, take it out for long-term storage.
Who is it for?
Players who want one optic that works at close and longer ranges, such as designated marksmen or anyone running a general-purpose rifle on mixed woodland and CQB sites.
Please note: Replica optic for airsoft use only; not for use on real firearms. The replica itself is not included. Always wear suitable eye protection when playing airsoft.
