The Vict Optics S10 is a 1-10x fiber optic LPVO from VictOptics, the entry-level line of Vector Optics. Out of the box, the S10 doesn’t scream “budget.” The build feels solid with turrets that feel and sound better than some premium LPVOs.
The eyebox is decent for a 1-10x, especially at higher magnification, which is rare in this price range. The fiber optic reticle with a horseshoe and central dot is daylight bright in both red and green.
Street price is under $150, putting it in the same tier as the Monstrum Banshee. I’ve reviewed several Monstrum scopes and like them, but the S10 feels better built with a larger ocular, improved diopter, and better eyebox.
Compared to Vector Optics’ top-tier Continental models with Schott glass, the S10 isn’t as flat, bright, or sharp. But as a budget LPVO the S10 is plenty sharp in real-world use. If you’re looking for an affordable do-it-all LPVO for general-purpose use, home defense, or recreational shooting, this is worth consideration.
Fix it Sticks make some of the smallest torque screw drivers on the market. And with it, compact tools and tool kits for optics and firearms. They got their start in creating tools and tool kits for cycling and their tools got picked up Special Forces Units and long-range competition shooters.
Every summer, Bryant Park hosts free outdoor movies projected on the Western end of the lawn. When we were dating the mid-1990’s, I took my girlfriend (later wife) here on one of our first dates. It’s magic.

BRAND CONTEST CLUE
Founded in 1892, this brand transformed American retail by pioneering mail-order catalogs for rural consumers. It later evolved into the nation’s largest brick-and-mortar department store with legendary brands like Craftsman and Kenmore.
PRIME DAY
Prime Day is a shopping event with deals exclusively for Amazon Prime members. Amazon held it’s first Prime Day on July 15, 2015, to commemorate the website’s 20th anniversary. Each year it has grown though some have critizied brands for hiking up prices before Prime and Black Friday, only to bring them down to “normal” prices for Prime Day.

Despite pioneering mail-order retail, this brand closed its catalog mail-order business in 1993 to concentrate on its brick-and-morter stores, completely missing the internet-driven e-commerce revolution. It merged with K-Mart in 2005. It declared bankruptcy in 2018, and today only 5 stores remain in Florida.
The Osite XR and XE are the most feature-packed reflex red dots on the market with pop-up rear iron sights, a user-selectable reticle with both 2 and 6 MOA dots, and a fully enclosed emitter housing. But this new XE model adds the most requested upgrade in an OSight optic: a side battery tray for easy coin battery replacement.
One of the most standout features is that the XE is an enclosed emitter red dot that is the same size as normal reflex RMRs. An enclosed emitter has a protective pane of glass that seals the primary reflective lens, keeping rain, mud, dust, or debris from fouling the critical surface. If the outer glass gets dirty, a quick wipe with a wet napkin — or spit and your thumb in a pinch — gets you back in the fight. This is a genuine game-changer for anyone running optics exposed to the elements on pistols, rifles, or shotguns.
The XE has the widest options of reticle I’ve seen: you can switch between a 2 MOA dot for precision shooting or a 6 MOA dot for faster acquisition in dynamic shooting. You also get a 32 MOA circle, circle-dot combinations for long range or easier recoil acquisition. This means the XE can adapt to your shooting style or use case, without buying a new optic.
The XE has a truly unique feature: press a button on the side and usable rear sights pop up. Don’t want them? Press them down, and they tuck away. Useful to have a choice, though the pop-up aspect is a bit of a gimmick.
The pop-up sights do bring up concerns about water ingress. But it is IPX7 rated. I tested this by dropping the XE into a pitcher of water and checking it after an hour. No water or fogging was visible in the enclosed housing after the test and the unit remained fully functional.
It’s no hyperbole to say the Osite XE is possibly the perfect pistol reflex sight for most users. It checks every box: the most common RMR footprint, unmatched reticle flexibility, backup iron sights, excellent durability, easy maintenance, and it’s priced about $150 less than many competitors. If you prefer a rechargeable option, check out the XR model.
Near City Hall, Tommy’s Joynt is an easily overlooked San Francisco landmark that doesn’t show up on most people’s radar. Opened in 1947, Tommy’s is the oldest Hofbrau in California.
Hofbrau’s offer beer and German-American comfort food. Large portions at reasonable prices (for San Francisco, that’s anything not insanely overpriced). Tommy’s is famous for its pastrami, turkey, corned and roast beef, made freshly in-house.
In addition to honest comfort food, Tommy’s offers a wall full of local and imported beers at its bar. In warm summer days, Tommy’s opens its rooftop biergarten. Opened by local singer and radio D.J Tommy Harris, Tommy’s served late-night grub to musicians finishing their gigs at local clubs and stages.
In 2020, rumors spread that Tommy’s was closed for good. Despite reopening after the citywide COVID shutdowns, viral social media posts still circulated that Tommy’s was closing or that the property would be sold to developers. I spoke to one of Tommy’s owners at the bar, and he completely dispelled the rumors.
The OClip Ultra is a tougher, beefier version of the OClip Pro. Physically, it has slightly more squared-off edges and replaces the red beam with a high-intensity UV. Under the hood, it ups the battery capacity and white-beam output 30 lumens.
But the biggest difference isn’t visible. The Ultra is made with Olight’s proprietary O-Aluminum, which is 1.73 times harder than standard 6061 aluminum. The Ultra is more scratch and dent-resistant but OLight still hasn’t improved the water-tightness of the unit, water got into the unit during my water hose test.
The OClip is designed to clip on pockets, backpack straps or even a hat brim. As a shoulder-mounted lamp, it works great. But as a headlamp, its right-angle beam points down at your feet and into your eyes.
If you don’t need a red light but need the toughness for a work lamp, the Ultra is a good choice.

BRAND CONTEST CLUE
This brand was North America’s largest ultra-low-cost air carrier before ceasing flight operations on May 2, 2026.
This defunct brand was founded in 1964 as a trucking company that pivoted to operating charter flights in 1983. They pioneered the ultra-low-cost airline model. They were the punchline to many jokes and memes for their upcharging and nickle-and-dime pricing tactics.
