Weaver Optics, founded in 1930 by William R. Weaver, is an American company specializing in the manufacture of riflescopes and mounting systems for firearms. The company is known for democratizing the use of scopes by offering high-quality products at affordable prices for the average American hunter. The first model, the 3-30, came with a Weaver mount, setting a standard in the industry.
Over the decades, Weaver introduced innovations such as 1-inch tube bodies, constantly centered reticles, and "Split Ring Tip-Off" mounts. Today, under the leadership of Vista Outdoor, Weaver continues to offer a full range of riflescopes, rings, and bases designed to be the most reliable mounting systems available.
