AKRA Super Fan

AKRA Super Fan

Stories like these remind us why we do what we do. Nothing makes us prouder than hearing how our optics make a difference in the field. One of our customers recently shared how they stumbled across AKRA (formerly known as ROARK), and their journey from a late-night web search to becoming a super fan.

Read on to see how AKRA earned its place on this shooter’s rifle!

My story might not be anything too exciting – except for finding the AKRA brand. Now, I’m a new super fan!

I’m a bit of a shooting nut/gun nut/brass ferret and I’m pretty well-versed when it comes to scope brands. Like most of us, once I latch onto a name brand, I tend to stick with it like a bad habit.

I was in the process of switching up an AR rifle from a red dot to an LPVO. After a lot of searching and web surfing, I had my list narrowed down to three different optics. I was doing one final search when AKRA popped up. I did a bit of Googling, made a few comparisons, and decided that this new brand looked like a great option, so I added it to my list.

There was a contact tab on the website, and I think I emailed a few questions after 10 p.m. – because let’s be honest, all good online shopping happens after 10! The first thing the next morning, Adriaan personally called me back and answered all my questions, along with sharing more about the AKRA Optics story. The personalized service and customer care were fantastic.

That same day, I placed my order online, and by the end of the week, my new scope was mounted and sighted in on my rifle. It’s incredibly robust, durable, and accurate as heck. I couldn’t be happier with the value for money and the high-quality optic I received.

In the end, I’m just glad I discovered a great South African company, offering top-notch products and excellent local service. Maybe next year, I’ll have a tall tale to tell from my hunting adventures with my Origin LPVO!

Thanx for sharing your story Andrew!
