Recently Scandinavian Airguns changed its name to Scandinavian Arms, with the aim to offer premium shooting gear to airguns as well as normal firearms. In this move, they expanded beyond the airgun market and acquired the JET-01 firearms chassis system and accessories from Long Range Design (LRD Sweden).

The target is to develop and market premium shooting gear, for a great variety of calibers and disciplines, from airguns to long-range firearms. At the IWA 2023 exhibition, they had a large stand, with all of their new products on display.
Essentially, this is a Schmidt & Bender 5-25×56 PMII riflescope with the features that make it difficult to export (i.e. military/ITAR specifications) removed. As much as customers like tactical features, do we really need them? The LRS is still waterproof down to 3 meters.
