The Burris 2x20 Handgun Scope in nickel finish is built for hunters who demand a rugged, reliable optic that can handle the punishment of powerful handgun calibers. This compact handgun scope delivers the long eye relief shooters need when mounting optics on short-action platforms, combined with the durability and optical clarity required for field hunting. Whether you're shooting a hunting revolver or leveraging a modern handgun platform for extended-range work, the 2x20 provides enough magnification to place ethical shots without the bulk or weight penalty of larger glass.

What sets this scope apart is its commitment to staying zero through recoil. The double internal spring-tension system and steel-on-steel adjustments are engineered to hold point-of-aim even after the violent recoil cycles of magnum handgun rounds. The 1-inch solid tube construction absorbs shock without flex, and nitrogen-filled internal chambers prevent fogging in wet or cold conditions—reliability you can trust when the hunt matters.

Optically, the Burris uses index-matched Hi-Lume multi-coated lenses to cut glare and boost contrast in low-light conditions. The high-grade optical glass and precision-ground lenses are optimized for brightness and edge-to-edge clarity across the field. The simple Plex reticle is easy to use in the field and quick to acquire. The nickel finish resists corrosion and pairs well with traditional and modern handgun platforms alike.

This is as close to a no-compromise handgun scope as the compact category offers—backed by the Burris Forever Warranty for absolute peace of mind.
