Vector Optics

Vector Optics is a Chinese optics firm with its head office in Shanghai, run through the operating company Shanghai Sunclear Vector Optics Trading. Its founder began selling scopes part time before setting the business up full time, first under the Sunclear name, then switching to Vector Optics on the advice of an American partner. A US branch in Pleasant Grove, Utah handles local service. The range covers rifle scopes such as the Continental, Tauron, Paragon and Veyron lines, Frenzy and Maverick red dot sights and magnifiers, binoculars, spotting scopes and rangefinders, plus rails, rings, mounts and accessories. Sub-brands include Victoptics for lower-priced kit, Rokstad, Gunpany, Vekt Defense, Vaide and Viperay. The optics are built for hunting, defence, sport and competition shooting, and airsoft players fit the red dots and low-power scopes to their replicas. Players buy through a large network of dealers and distributors in many countries, as well as its own online stores.
