Hi friends. Have any of you ever ordered anything from GovX? It's a website that's supposed to sell everything at deep discounts to active military and veterans.

I signed up years ago, but I've never ordered anything from them. They send me junk emails weekly, but i rarely even open them.

Today, they sent me an email saying that all Vortex optics are on sale for the next 3 days only.

There are some really good deals and I'm thinking about ordering the following scope:

Vortex Viper HS LR 6-24 x 50 for $599

I just did a quick online search and it looks like everyone else is selling it for $799.

The site is showing 128 different Vortex items on sale ranging from scopes to mounts to red dots to binoculars, etc.

Let me know what you guys think...
 
GovX is mostly garbage. I did get a pellet grill from them (an actual deal) but they usually mark up another company's discounts, whereas if you go through the actual company, you will get a much better discount.

GovX is good for DarnTough socks. Can't recommend those socks enough. Wear them every. single. day. Lifetime warranty.

That said I looked up that scope and it is $630 through the Vortex military discount site (all Vortex products are 40% off MSRP via their site), so it seems you'd be getting a good deal.

EuroOptic is also usually a very good site and will give you a mil/dealer account with discount with a DD214, but they were also higher than GovX on this scope.

I still stand by what I said, GovX is usually trash.

@jmccracken1214 what do you think? Is this a good deal on this scope?
 
I am neither active nor former mil, but I would be very tempted to get 2 of those at that price (with the XLR MOA reticle). I have 1 already and like it. I put together new 5.56 and Grendel LR uppers that need glass.

And @degenerateJEFF

PST 6-24x50 with same reticle $599 at Optics Planet with a 10% off code you can use

It was $499 last month and I got one


Well here is another Vortex scope for $420 and it comes with a free cantilever mount and free shipping.

Are all vortex optics on sale everywhere all of a sudden?

Strike Eagle clarity/quality doesn’t compare to the HSLR/PST

I'm not looking for anything right now just Alabama. I'm just hoping somebody outbids my drunk eBay bid in the next two days so I don't end up shelling out $ for a red dot that I won't even have a gun for haha.

Right on...just thought it might be worth comparing to the GovX thing to see if they’re buying sale items and marking them up. No worries

Now I'm following. They have intermittent actual good deals, but absolutely terrible ones to take advantage of mil/leo/responders too.
 
Crap site. Not worth the hassle for meager discounts, if a discount at all. Stick to the classifieds.
