for $30, how can you go wrong? it works, it fits, its a decent quality. ive put around 200 rounds through my AR15 using this. it needed very little sighting in at 50 yards, moreso at 100. its not a precision scope......its a red dot used mainly for combat type situations. just put the dot on the target and it goes down. at 50 yds you can put nearly every shot in the black rings. at 100, the dot covers nearly the entire bullseye area, so its harder to be as accurate. but youll still be near enough the center, and easily hit a man or animal at that range. and again, for $30, how can you go wrong? worth every penny.

I was torn about whether or not to get a red dot to put on my 10/22. On one hand I thought it would be a nice upgrade after shooting irons for a year. On the other I was concerned about ruining the classic look on my wood stock factory 10/22. I decided I would just risk the 30 dollars and purchase this red dot. I must stay, it has greatly improved ease of shooting and DOES NOT ruin my rifle's good looks.
INSTALLATION:
I honestly believe this is where most people go wrong, with poor install of scopes and mounts. MAKE SURE EVERY SCREW IS LOCTITED in place. Don't skip a screw and hope you didn't need it. If you do not Loctite your screw they will "walk " or rotate out of place and mess up your zero. I also used white modeler's paint to make "witness marks" to allow to see a screws rotation. The little bottle of Loctite is worth the money. Henkel 01-24200 Loctite 6-ml Threadlocker 242
FOCUS AND POWER:
When I first opened the optic I switched it to full power and was disappointed. The dot was unfocused and too bright. Once I dialed it down to setting 1 and 2 the dot became much more focused and not blinding. I normally shoot at setting 1 or 2(indoor range with poor lighting). The darker it is the less power is needed. I tried it outdoors and still only need to go to 4. If you adjust your power setting according to your lighting then the dot will remained focused.
ZEROING:
I zeroed this optic in a matter of minutes using only 10 rounds(you could do it in less). It was not difficult I just turned the elevation screw a quarter turn until I shot below my target mark and then found the butter zone between the last turn and the point I went over. I have fired about 400 rounds with it and the zero hasn't moved.
FINISH:
The one criticism I have of the sight is the rather cheap finish. It's kind of a rubberized paint over top of a powercoat. It must have not been properly degreased before the rubberizing because it has chipped in some areas. On the brightness nob and Windage adjustment cover. To me it isn't a big deal YMMV.
OVERALL:
I like this a lot. It works, it didn't cost me much and I was easy to setup. Remember to Loctite your screws and adjust the power setting according to your lighting. I hope you found this review helpful and have the same success as I.
PS: Will update if something changes.
UPDATE: Battery life is excellent! It have left it on multiple times for 24 hours or more and it still has full power!

I bought this to attach to my Crosman S32P airsoft shotgun which has a compatible mounting system. It installed easily and was fairly simple, albeit tedious, to calibrate. It feels very solid to use, and durable. The calibration is done using little screwheads underneath plastic caps; you'll need a penny or something to adjust them, not just your fingers.
My only wishes: it would be nice if the lens covers could pop up instead of just being removed--I'm sure one day I'll completely lose the caps--and the dot is slightly large at longer distances, which can be partially remedied by adjusting the brightness. At the full brightness of 11, it's easily visible in bright light. At 1, you need almost a completely dark room to see it.
