What does 4x32 on a scope mean?

The designation "4x32" on a scope indicates its magnification and objective lens diameter. In this case, "4x" means the scope magnifies the image four times larger than the naked eye, while "32" refers to the diameter of the objective lens in millimeters. A larger objective lens typically allows more light to enter, improving visibility in low-light conditions. This combination is often used for hunting or target shooting at moderate distances.
