4 Stars Inexpensive - somewhat cheap
This may be an ok red dot sight for low cal firearms, but it does not appear to keep alignment on higher cal firearms - my sight goes out of alignment. Construction could be more solid — There is a bit of play between the sight and it’s mounting base and I have to readjust the site often. (I am not talking about play between the sight’s and the weaver rail mount.) The sight adjustments work however they are not very precise (or sensitive) and have I trouble locking in and keeping it in position. I can shoot 50 rounds at the range and the recoil will throw it out of alignment every time. (I don’t believe I am doing anything wrong adjusting it.) I took it to a local gunsmith and he said he could not adjust it — but I really didn’t understand that, because I can — it just doesn’t stay in adjustment. “You get what you pay for” and “use the right tool for the job” are two sayings that potentially apply in this case.
This sight may be fine for firearms like: airsoft and .22 cal pistols and rifles. However, .380, 9mm, .40, and higher (certainly P+), and shotguns, may not be the best platform for this sight. Your mileage may vary.
Reticles are good and brightness is adjustable, however you must remember to turn it off — there is no automatic shut off (auto shut off is common with more expensive sights). Field of view on this sight is ok. Battery life is good, dies down a bit in real cold, but still works.
Bottom line opinion: IMHO this is a good inexpensive/cheap site for budget restricted consumer or lower cal pistols and rifles. If you have the budget you should be able to do much better for 1.5 to 2 times the price.
I hope this review makes sense and helps prospective buyers. Good luck.
