I got an awful lot of superior/distinguished scopes, knives and even fucking exp boosts. What’s the deal with these? Are they really just the same except with a border around the unlock box? They don’t do more damage or anything.. is there anything they do?

I think those ratings are just the rarity. I believe some are “common” or “uncommon” so you have a lower chance of getting “distinguished” but you can only get so many "common"s without repeats before you start getting more rare items

So you can only get so many hunter scopes for the same rifle until you get a distinguished hunter scope for the rifle, which is exactly the same and won’t affect your game in any way whatsoever?

I might be wrong, but I think you can only get one per gun. So you wouldn’t get more than one hunter scope. I think hunter scopes are all a certain rarity. So for example, all hunter scopes could be “rare” while the golden dog tags are “superior”.

They are just items. While a FLIR is listed as a distinguished a IRNV is listed as superior. Distinguished is just a rare item, youre more likely to get the IRNV before the FLIR persay
