What about an ETX-125PE? I know it's only 5" but... meets most of the criteria for a grab and go.

Or Celestron 5SE or 6SE? I don't know what you budget is but I hope this helps.

'Grab and go' is a real broad definition, in my opinion. What is 'grab and go' for you is different for me.

For me, grab and go means:

1. No imaging considerations
2. Can pick the 'scope up with on hand
3. Can be packed and travel in a space of a small suitcase (say, approximately 400 x 400 x 400mm)
4. No Dobs!


Good luck.
