Handgun Scope
The Handgun Scope is a rare hunting optic for the Deagle and Longhorn in DayZ. It provides 1.8x magnification, does not need a 9V Battery, can zero from 50m to 150m, and slightly reduces dispersion by -0.0001.
Quick answer
The Handgun Scope is a 1.8x magnifying pistol optic in DayZ. It can be attached to the Deagle and Longhorn, making it useful for large-caliber sidearms and especially valuable on the Longhorn, which does not have normal built-in iron sights. Unlike Mini Sights or Sportpoint Sights, the Handgun Scope does not require a 9V Battery because it has no illuminated reticle. The tradeoff is poor visibility at night. It takes 3 inventory slots, weighs 700 g, has 0 absorbency, and can be found in hunting loot locations as a rare optic.
