Trijicon Huron 1-6x24 question

[Voodooracer]

Hi all,
I got a decent deal on a trijicon Huron 1-6x24 off of midwayusa and received it today. When I took it out of the box and looked through it set on 1x, I noticed a slight fish eye effect around the extreme periphery. As soon as the power goes up off 1x the effect disappears. Is this something you guys have experienced with this scope? I’m wondering if I should send it to trijicon to look at or if this is common? I realize it’s not a high dollar optic but I expected better from them.

Thanks for your time,
Voodoo

I agree, it does seem odd. I definitely will give them a call.

I have a Trijicon Accupoint TR25-C. I bought it from one of our members and mounted it on my 450 Dakota. I’ll take a look though it and see if it has the same effect… They seem well built.​

Thanks! This is the first low power trijicon I’ve bought, granted it’s also on the lower priced end, but I just wouldn’t expect that from even a “lower end” trijicon.

Trijicon best bet for info.

I contacted Trijicon yesterday and had a less than stellar first impression with customer service. When I talked to the customer service tech, he seemed pretty uninterested overall with the issue and said “I haven’t heard of that complaint, but you can send it in if you want.” And that was the extent of his conversation with me. I filled out the repair request on their website and am still waiting to hear back with a shipping label. To be continued it seems.

Looking at a scope out of the box on 1x, I found I had what could be the same problem. You may have an actual issue, I don't know, but my realization as described here might help:
