Claim 11:
12. A riflescope comprising:
a main tube;
an objective lens coupled to a first end of the main tube;
one or more ocular lenses coupled to a second end of the main tube, the objective lens and the one or more ocular lenses defining a first focal plane and a second focal plane; and
a display system disposed between the one or more ocular lenses and the second focal plane, the display system comprising a display and a reflective element, the display system configured to project an image to the one or more ocular lenses, wherein:
the one or more ocular lenses are positioned closer to the second focal plane than the first focal plane;
the second focal plane is positioned a first distance from the one or more ocular lenses;
the display and the reflective element are disposed on either a common side or opposing sides of an optical axis extending from the objective lens through the one or more ocular lenses;
the display is positioned an effective distance from the one or more ocular lenses, the effective distance defining a folded optical path configured to render the image perceivable to a user of the riflescope; and
the effective distance is substantially equivalent to the first distance.
