Mach1 had 1-6 Firefield scope for ~200 tax and rings inc. Outside of shipping from US I don't think there are any other true 1x options you can buy at that price. Do not bother with 1.1 for cqb since it will really mess with your brain trying to merge left/eye right eye.
The only downside to Firefield I found is the weight, it is rather heavy for cqb where red dot/irons suffice.

You won't have much luck in regard to that. There are short dot scopes which are 1-4 but will cost you a pretty penny, and even the low end ones are anywhere from 100 to 200 bucks. And will fisheye pretty badly when you have it set to the 1x magnification.

These will probably fit your needs.

I have to disagree Firefield, Nikon and Bushnell all produce a 1x variable for ~200CAD that will not fisheye enough to bother you. Obviously other performance characteristics such as light transmission or weight are subpar to $1000 leupold but then again you don't care for airsoft since the $200 optics are already enough to see your bb fall at 100m.

Also avoid buying an optic too cheap since it will only slow you down over red dot/irons.

Said it before and ill say it again, Vortex should be the only optic Airsofters want to buy. Plenty of true 1x optics, some of the best glass out there yes even the 1000$+ optics included. Lifetime warrenty no fault 51% of the optic and they will replace it, painting does not void warenty if you follow their directions.

Optics start at 150$ and go to 5000$ I have multiple scopes from 250-1500$ from them. They are all amazing and improve all parts of my game. The optics are so clear you can easily have 4x on and keep both eyes open no distortion no issues (for me atleast).

Where are the Nikon/Bushnell 1-4 adjustable optics for $200 inside Canada?

I think we'll both be waiting a long time.

You'll be lucky to find a Barska at that price here.

Bushnell ar 1-4x was on sale at SAIL in december I believe it was ~200 before tax. Haven't seen the Nikon 1-4x sales but seeing how its under 200 in US there should be sales at some point.

Seeing as cheapest Nikon 1-4 is $270.00 USD on Optics Planet I remain skeptical.

My bad, you are right, must have been a different scope I was thinking of.

This might fit the bill. You will need to find one used as I don't think they are produced anymore.

Honestly chaz, if they make one like that in an airsoft package, yes :P Preferably filament wire instead of a printed reticle though.

What I've taken to doing is hiring a mime to run about the field at my beck and call carrying what appears to be a wire BBQ grill.

Then I hang upside down from the rafters like spiderman and call targets down to the mime. It'll sound kinda like "Target, 3:47 PM blue hoody by the third hay bale". Then the mime will dash over and put the crosshairs on the target.

At that point I headshot them and move on to the next tango. 900 confirmed kills so far this month.
