Battlefield 4 question regarding M40A5

I unlocked the variable zoom scope for the M40A5. I can see it under the unlocks area of my battelog. However, when I go to my load out or try to find it in game, its NOT THERE! it only seems to exist in the unlocks portion of the battle log.

Cant seem to find any answers on google. What am i missing reddit?

When you’re in the game make sure you have a long range scope attached then check under the accessory attachments. It should be there. Inly other explanation is that it wasn’t for the M40A5. I’ve never heard of single items missing.

ahhhh I see. I assumed it was considered a scope. Never even thought to look under attachments. However it says it is incompatible :frowning:

thanks very much!

Its only compatible with certain scopes (long range)

you have to use a x6 or more scope for the variable x14 to work
