Arken Optics was originally developed for the ultra-long distance shooting market. Their commitment to precision, quality and exceptional performance shows in the confidence that they have in their product. All Arken conventional telescopes are covered with a lifetime guarantee.
With the South African hunting season approaching, many hunters are looking to upgrade their gear to ensure that they have the competitive edge in the field, or to make sure that they do not miss that perfect shot. If you are looking for a product that will elevate your hunting experience, look no further than Engage Optics.
Engage Optics has rapidly established itself as a premier provider of high-performance rifle optics, night vision devices, and accessories in South Africa. Established during the COVID-19 pandemic by Anton Prinsloo, an avid sport shooter and hunter, the company emerged from a personal quest to acquire an Arken telescope which was not readily available in the local market. Determined to acquire one, Anton managed to import a few for himself and fellow enthusiasts, which sold out almost immediately. Realising the potential demand, Anton decided to turn his passion into a business, and Engage Optics was born.
What began as a small-scale import operation has grown significantly. Today, Engage Optics is the official distributor of Arken and DNT optics in South Africa, catering to both private buyers and wholesale customers. Anton has since expanded the business to employ two additional staff members, maintaining a customer-centric approach that has been the cornerstone of Engage Optics’ success.
At the heart of Engage Optics lies a dedication to offering products that seamlessly blend quality with affordability. Anton’s mission is to provide optics that are accurate, repeatable, reliable, and robust without imposing exorbitant costs on customers.
This philosophy aligns perfectly with the values of Arken Optics and DNT Optics, both renowned for their commitment to excellence.
Arken Optics, in particular, are renowned for their accuracy and reliability, offering a tracking guarantee that assures customers of precise adjustments when accounting for environmental factors like distance and wind speed. Originally developed for long-distance shooting, Arken scopes are ideal for both sport shooters and hunters who demand precision.

Engage Optics is the proud importers and distributors of both DNT and Arken products in South Africa. These brands are widely known for their excellent quality and guarantees, giving you peace of mind for the investment that you make in your shooting and hunting equipment.
