Features
- KL Box Reticle: The EP8 features the innovative KL Box reticle (short for "Known Length"), a patent-pending BDC (Bullet Drop Compensation) design. This intuitive reticle is specifically engineered to enhance your effectiveness in high-stress environments.The outside numbers of the KL Box reticle extend diagonally below the centerline, correlating to distances in yards. This provides you with quick and accurate distance estimation, essential for precision shooting.
- Frame and Fire: By framing a silhouette target in the appropriate KL box, the user is able to rapidly identify distance by simultaneously using shoulder width and torso height to calculate point of aim. With combat effectiveness in mind, this reticle allows for easy interpolation for any distance within the intended operational limits of a 1-8 allowing the user to acquire and process information faster and put effective rounds down range.
- Waterproof and Shockproof: A single piece tube constructed from aircraft grade aluminum ensures strength and shockproof performance. O-ring sealed and nitrogen purged, delivers waterproof and fogproof performance. Adaptability in a wide range of shooting scenarios.Upgrade your optics game with the EP8 LPVO from Arken Optics and experience the difference for yourself.

Incredible optic for the money. The glass is incredibly clear and the adjust from one magnification to the other makes the reticle extremely versatile. The illumination has 2 night vision settings that are extremely useful with night vision optics, and even those settings are too low sometimes. while the highest illumination settings are extremely bright perfect for daytime direct sunlight shooting. I’ve used the optic on multiple hunts now. I am extremely confident on the functionality and the reliability for it to hold my zero. It also looks incredible and extremely easy to use for beginner shooters. I will be buying more optics from Arken.

Shopping for a new LPVO and a friend recommended I take a look at Arken. Glad I did! The EP-8 has everything I was looking for, and I looked at all of them. I wanted this build to reach out to 400(+), so I wanted more than the typical 6x LPVO but was beginning to think that would fall outside my budget. The Arken EP-8 has more than I hoped for with additional 2x power, larger tube, and a First Focal Plane reticle to boot! But is it any good? I can tell you the glass is exceedingly clear with very little distortion. Better than most. At 1x it's a fantastic, very fast, both eyes open, pointer. I rarely lean over to my red dot now. Even when tightened up to 8x, it's easy to get a full pipe and acquire target. Light off or on, the reticle is highly visible. At 6x-8x, the KLBOX (Known Length Bullet Drop Compensating) reticle is very intuitive and combines ranging, and BDC with holds in the same ladder. It's also dead on out to 400 with a 50/200 zero, throwing 62 grain 556 with a 0.30ish BC. I just don't imagine the need to target anything much past that. CONs? The flip up covers are loud. A few mods solved that. The zoom requires some effort to get it moving and until you're used to it, you might have to reacquire your target. Conversely, It won't bump off set easily either. PROs: It's an affordable, high quality 8x-28 FFP LVPO scope that's feature rich. Vortex, PA, Sig don't hit the same marks, and their Japanese glass and overseas manufacturing is no better until you double the money. Arken is designed in the USA, built in their own plant in China, and has a transferable, lifetime warranty. Buy it. Try it. You'll love it.

First off, I want to say that I LOVE this scope. It is a great deal for the price and should fit needs for any hunters who aren't trying to snipe their game from half a mile away. It is built well, is easy to adjust and has a great reticle. It comes with bikini covers and flip-up hard covers for both lenses as well. Arken Optics also has AMAZING customer service who are quick to reply and please their customers. My original flip-up eyepiece cover had a little difficulty staying on when traversing the woods, but after messaging Arken, the company mailed me a new pack of BOTH flip-up covers free of charge and the new one works absolutely perfectly! I would highly recommend this scope to any person looking for a quality scope at a pleasantly surprising price point!

I couldn't be happier with this purchase. The fit and finish, quality of the optic, and glass clarity are all great for the price. The glass on this will not compete with a Nightforce SHV or Vortex PST gen ii, but does very well against any scope in the sub $800 range I've looked through (i worked in the industry selling optics for almost 3 years, I've looked through a LOT of optics). While I am very happy with this optic and it has been mounted on my go to AR, I almost sent it back when I first received it. When I took it out of the box and was checking eye box and glass clarity prior to mounting, I could not seem to get the 1x to be usable with a massive amount of distortion. 24hrs later the mount from Arken arrived (another great product, would give it 5 stars) and I decided to mount it just in case it was the way I was holding it. It wasn't. But, after alot of time playing with the diopter and adjusting, it is not 99% set. I may do some final tweaks at the range to find the happy medium between 1x and 8x for the diopter setting. That said, 1x is now very very usable with little distortion, I won't say 0 but its almost unnoticeable. Very happy I gave it a chance to mount and adjust before returning it. If youre on the fence about this optic, I would honestly recommend giving it a try. I still own much higher end scopes and won't be switching everything I have to an Arken product. But they do fill their role nicely and offer a ton of product for the money. While I have not tested the reticle myself at distance ranging unknown targets, I have seen many reviews and I do think the reticle is extremely intuitive and usable for the average owner, with just a little practice. If you want a LPVO, I highly suggest you give this one a try
