Nightforce Optics combines state-of-the-art manufacturing with a hands-on human element to ensure reliable and capable products for the field.

They then check to see if the reticle is still aligned.

They repeat this process on all four sides as well as the front and rear of the scope.

Talk about putting your money where your mouth is.

In this digital image, we see the Nightforce Optics manufacturing facility from the air. The facility features two main buildings with a smaller auxiliary building. There is a large parking lot with many cars and trucks parked in it. There are many motor vehicles here. In the surrounding area we can see a river, mountains and evergreen trees.

The Nightforce Optics manufacturing facility is located in Orofino, Idaho. Without a doubt, the area is absolutely beautiful.

The scope is then frozen to -80F and then heated to 160F within a one-hour period.

Every lens in every scope is matched and aligned by hand, yielding the highest levels of optical performance.

These little details make a Nightforce one of the best scopes in the world.

In this digital photo, we see the entrance to Nightforce Optics main office. Through these doors you enter the machine shop and assembly plant for the rifle scopes.

Nightforce Optics is a company with employees who are extremely passionate about their work.

The ATACR line is their premium offering created for military and law enforcement professionals.

The NX8 line boasts an 8X zoom range that is sharp at every setting.

This is achieved by using premium materials and the latest optical technology.

In this digital image, we see CNC machines, metal working tools and a United States of America flag.

Nightforce Optics uses the best materials and equipment available to create the housings, turrets and other pieces of their lines of optics.

The NXS line are workhorses that have been building the Nightforce reputation for decades and keep on performing.

In Australia, rabbits, foxes and pigs are considered varmints that can wreak havoc on a landowners crops.

Therefore, the best time to hunt these creatures was when they were most active, at night.

In this photo, a machinist holds an unworked piece of aluminum in one hand with a finished scope mount in his other hand.

The technicians at Nightforce Optics can skillfully turn a chunk of aluminum into a solid scope mount.

He began development on a rifle light that could spot animals out to 400 yards.

He ordered 500 scopes, and they were a huge success.

In this photo, the Nightforce Optics team builds and tests scopes before they are packaged and shipped out to customers.

The Nightforce Optics team undertake significant testing of each riflescope prior to it being packaged and shipped.

In 1990, the company was renamed Nightforce.

Dennis now operates his lighting products under Lightforce, while the rifle optics remain under the name Nightforce.

In 1998, the company moved from Seattle to Orofino where they currently reside.

In this photograph, a woman employed by Nightforce Optics performs testing on the scopes. She is wearing a hat and is outside on a second story balcony. A green metal roof is visible in the background.

Nightforce scope tubes are made from solid bar stock 6061-T6 aluminum that is two to three times thicker than most other riflescopes. This allows for greater thermal stability.

Nightforce continues to provide the U.S. Military with optics that give our soldiers the edge in combat.

With Nightforce, you get exactly what you pay for perfection.
