Handgun Scopes

Extended eye relief handgun scopes for revolvers and hunting pistols — Burris fixed and variable models with Plex and Ballistic Plex reticles, in black and nickel. These are long-eye-relief optics meant to be held out at arm's length rather than shouldered, which is what separates them from a rifle scope and from a slide-mounted dot.

What may be fitted, and to what, differs a great deal across the UK by section category and by jurisdiction. Our article on whether a rifle scope, red dot or torch needs a licence in the UK sets out where the optic itself sits, and buying optics in the UK covers import duty, VAT and when a registered firearms dealer is involved. Check the position for your own certificate before you order.

If you want a slide-mounted dot instead, see pistol dot sights or sealed enclosed optics — our piece on compact pistol red dot sights compares the slim-slide options, and red dot sights under £300 covers the money. The rest of the Burris catalogue is here too, alongside full-size rifle scopes.

Mounting one takes the right base and ring height. Everything we stock is Picatinny or Weaver pattern — browse scope rings and Burris mounts and rings, and read the mounts and rings buyer's guide before you order. Everything ships from UK stock with no import fees.
