Progress through precision and technology is a philosophy ingrained in the Swarovski family’s genetic code, and their companies have remained true to this day to this shared principle and the values of the founders. After the legendary Habicht, SWAROVSKI OPTIK introduced its first rifle scope in 1959, its initial extendable spotting scope in 1967 and, in 1971, the world’s first rubber-armored binocular. In 1976, another worldwide premiere saw the launch of a rifle scope equipped with a proprietary shock absorber for preventing recoil injuries to the eye. In 1994 SWAROVSKI OPTIK introduced the first telescope. And, in 1999, the SWAROVSKI OPTIK EL binocular with the world’s first wrap-around grip captured Field and Stream Magazine’s Best of the Best Award, making it the development of the decade. Since 2007, the Z6 rifle scope range with the first 6x zoom has received international acclaim among the world’s hunting fraternity. In all, over 30 national and international awards pay tribute to the company’s innovative strength, the superior precision and uncompromising quality and also to the elegance and the innovative design that go into the SWAROVSKI OPTIK brand.

IDPA Gear

The beauty of IDPA is that it requires relatively little in the way of supplementary equipment. Besides the gun and hearing/eye protection, really all that is needed is a holster and mag pouch. The basic requirements are that they provide a smooth draw while securely retaining the equipment to the shooters waist line. While leather is popular, most IDPA enthusiasts prefer polymer holsters such as the Comp-Tac International or the Blade-Tech Black Ice because they have a smoother draw and a longer relative service life. While both inside and outside the waistband holsters are legal, they must be strong side draw in addition to various other specifications.
