I was typing away on the keyboard of my recently deceased MacBook Pro one morning when a delivery arrived—not particularly unusual for a guy who writes about guns—but nobody had mentioned this one, causing me to be caught off guard. As I head back to my desk, trying to find a weakness in the packaging like a child on Christmas morning, a familiar lime green I’ve come to know over the years began to tease its way out of the box, forcing me to ask myself, “Did Meprolight make a friggin scope?” As I sat back down, admiring the fancy presentation, it became clear that what I had in my hands was a new MVO (Mepro Variable Optic) 3-18×44 FFP (First Focal Plane) M3 with MIL Reticle.
