Nikko Stirling scopes are used primarily by sportsman throughout Europe, Africa and Australia. These scopes are produced to exceptionally high standards and the company is always looking to advance technology.

History
- In 1956, Australian Malcolm John Fuller founded the Stirling Scope Company in Tokyo, Japan. Fuller's vision was to utilize the emerging Japanese optics industry in the development of high quality rifle scopes. The formula has worked for more than 50 years.
Specialization
- Nikko Stirling specializes in the production of rifle scopes and related products. Unlike optics companies that produce rifles scopes as a sideline, Nikko Stirling is dedicated to the production and development of high quality instruments.
Scopes
- Nikko Stirling produces scopes for every purpose--from target shooting with an air rifle to big-game hunting. Nikko Stirling is also constantly integrating new technology into its line of optical scopes.
Laser Scope
- Nikko Stirling has developed the world's first laser rifle scope. It's equipped with an internal laser that is preset to project to the scope's projected point-of-impact. With the laser reference, parallax error (the illusion of target movement caused by changes in the shooters line-of-sight) is minimized and target acquisition time reduced.
Award-Winning Company
- Nikko Stirling received the Golden Bullseye Award for product innovation in 2007 and continues to strive to be a world leader in rifle scope production.
