September was a month of momentum and milestones for Vector Optics — from the global stage of the IPSC Handgun World Shoot in South Africa to the debut of our latest Scrapper X3 Combo, and the expansion of our community engagement through Airgun Nation sponsorships. Each event reflected our ongoing commitment to performance, precision, and connection — both on the field and within the shooting community.
The 2025 IPSC Handgun World Shoot, held at the Frontier Shooting Range in Stilfontein, South Africa, gathered over 2,000 elite competitors for six days of intense competition across 30 stages. Vector Optics proudly participated as part of this prestigious global event, showcasing our top-performing optics designed to meet the extreme accuracy and speed demands of competitive shooting.

Our product lineup featured the Frenzy, Scrapper, and Paragon series — each engineered for rapid target acquisition and uncompromised optical clarity. Among the highlights were the Frenzy GenII Red Dots, known for their wide viewing window and durable 7075-T6 construction, and the Scrapper X3 Combo - 1x29 (SCRMMK-02), offering seamless transition between close- and mid-range engagement.
 
Participating in this event wasn’t just about brand presence — it was about proving reliability under real-world, high-pressure conditions. The competition served as a live demonstration of Vector Optics’ precision engineering, reinforcing our reputation among professional shooters and tactical enthusiasts alike. Positive recognition from international shooters who praised our optics’ durability, clarity, and consistent performance throughout the event —a strong affirmation of our global competitiveness.
 
Following the excitement of the IPSC event, Vector Optics officially launched the Scrapper X3 Combo - 1x29 and the Scrapper X3 Combo - 1x25 (SCRMMK-01 and SCRMMK-02) — designed as an all-in-one solution for versatile shooters.
 

Each kit combines a Scrapper Red Dot Sight, Paragon 3x Magnifier, and an integrated one-piece Picatinny mount, providing shooters with fast adaptability between short- and mid-range targets. Featuring multi-reticle options, up to 90 MOA adjustment range, and flip-to-side functionality, the kits deliver maximum flexibility for AR platforms and modern sporting rifles.
The reason behind this launch was simple — to offer a streamlined setup that eliminates compatibility guesswork. Every component in the combo kits is factory-matched for perfect optical alignment, allowing users to “mount once, shoot anywhere.”
The product release received strong engagement across social media, with users highlighting the clarity of the Paragon magnifier and the convenience of the all-in-one package. For many, the Scrapper X3 Combo (SCRMMK-01/02) felt like “DLC for your rifle” — an upgrade that enhanced both functionality and fun.
In September, Vector Optics strengthened its connection with the global shooting community through an official sponsorship of Airgun Nation, one of the most influential airgun forums worldwide.
The initiative was designed to encourage authentic user feedback, helping both new and experienced shooters make informed decisions. Through the Airgun Nation Review Campaign, members were invited to post detailed product reviews featuring photos and direct product links. Qualified participants were rewarded with exclusive Vector Optics merchandise and loyalty points, creating a win-win environment for engagement and insight exchange.
 

The campaign achieved exceptional participation, with dozens of in-depth reviews highlighting our products’ precision, glass clarity, and reliability. Beyond visibility, this partnership reaffirmed our dedication to transparency and community trust — where every shooter’s voice helps shape the future of our optics development.
From world-class competitions to new product innovations and community partnerships, September marked another stride forward for Vector Optics’ mission: to bring precision optics to every shooter, everywhere. As we move forward, we remain focused on advancing optical technology that empowers precision shooters, competitive athletes, and hunters worldwide!
