Tactical compact scopes (1-4x24 etc.) close focus?

Hi,

I think most (all?) of you are familiar with compact tactical scopes, like 1-4x24 and similar. None of them (even 1-6x and 1-6.5x) is equipped with side focus/paralax adjuftment for precize close range shooting at max manification. At least models up to 1.000 USD which is my budget. My question - can you still have SHARP (really) target image at max magnification at the range of 20 yards or so with such a scope?

I'm considering the new SWFA 1-6x24 or Weaver Tactical 1-5x24 as my new scope for my new toy, EdGun Lelya bullpup airgun (yeah, I know... but I'm askig about the scope only) and I'd need somethig fully usable at 5x at the range of 20-50 yards.

BTW, the scope in the pic is not worth mentionning, the optical quality is just too low to even look through it (for me). But it was one I had on shelf and my Lelya just arrived from the gun maker... so I had to scope it.

Thanks!!!
