I wanted an inexpensive reflex sight to mount on an old plinker pistol for ha-ha's and took a chance on this one. I've used the top end C-More sights, and the Aimpoint-5000's for many years, and know what quality looks/feels like.

This little $35 sight came nicely packed, with 2 batteries (one in it, one spare), and a little rubberized sight-glass cover over the sight (nice touch). Also, a wiping cloth, adjustment tools, and instructions. The darn thing was NOT plastic as I'd expected, it was a solid, heavy, well machined metal body. Overall, at first glance and feel, if you didn't know that it was a $35 reflex-sight, you'd swear it looked and felt like any big-bucks high-end C-More/Aimpoint/Eotech.

The only 3 things that I noticed, that were slightly deficient compared to the high-quality reflex sights is the size of the glass (somewhat smaller in field of view), the ball-dot reticle is slightly out of round (I only use ball-dot reticle, the others were also slightly "blurry" compared to C-mores), and the rear-most reticle-selection housing seems to sit up a tad higher than C-mores, and slightly interferes with the see-through field of view (cuts off a tiny bit of the bottom edge).

The brightness selection knob is solid, has nice detent click'ability, and the brightness values are very good, almost perfect IMHO (low to high).

I locked this little sight onto a Wilson Accu-Comp .38 super (Steel Challenge type Speed shooting) pistol, sighted it in and ripped off a few speed draw snap shots.

You gotta' be kidding me. It works perfect! If you've never shot a high-end C-more, you'd never know the differance. In the end, I agree with what some other reviewers said about this sight, 100%.

It's solid, works great, and for $35? it's disposable! Shoot it for a year or two, throw it away and get another one!

I intend to get another one to mount on my AR15, just for the fun of it.

I always loved Holographic and red dot reflex sights in all my video games. So I felt getting this for my JG M4 S-System was the perfect choice. 4 different sights; Dot, Circle with dot, + cross, and another cross with the middle different.

Seems put together quite well.

7 intensity levels. Level 7 works even on a sunny day!
I like the Holographic because even as you move your Head, the Sight is Still on Sight.
You do not have to Align with a Back or Front Sight.
If you hold it up Steady and Move Just your Head around you can see that it Lines up with the Target regardless of your Angle.

Unit Stays in Adjustment.
I sighted it in and also Sighted in my Laser. They Match up at the Same Distance everytime.
With Regular Use and Storage, I have had no problems with the Sight coming out of Adjustment.
Generally your Airsoft Gun is More Likely to Change Where it is Shooting... (Different BBs, Battery Losing Charge, etc)
Everytime I check it my Laser and Red Dot are Right on. Love it.

Update: My Son fell in Love with this sight, so I ordered a Second one for my Sons Umarex H&K MP5. Even though he already had a Red Dot that Came with it he liked the AIM Holographic much better. Now he has had his for a Few Weeks and it is right on and Holds Alignment very Well. Mine is still spot on every time as well.

Remember to Try to Train Yourself to Shoot with Both Eyes Open with Reflex Sights.
You One Eye it with Scopes, not Reflex Sights. Allowing you to Keep your eyes on the Battlefield.

I studied several different sights. This one was by far the least expensive. It holds on target everytime. I have tried it on several guns, from a .22lr to a 308. Still no need to adjust the sight after the recoil of the 308. Super product. Would definatly purchase again.

For the money it is a really good product. The sight is clearly visible even in broad daylight. It also mounts easily enough to any rail as well.

The only issue I had is that when mounting it, it was VERY easy to strip out the rear clamping bolt/screw. I hand tightened the bolt and got to about a 1/16 of a turn with the allen wrench when the bolt started spinning easily as it stripped the aluminum frame out.

My advice is to hand tighten and use a dab of loctite if you are worried about it vibrating free after a few rounds are fired.

I recently purchased the Tactical sight. Ordering was easy, shipping fast. Visibility OK in Florida sunshine, and seems to be staying zeroed with my air rifle and probably would with a .22

Excellent product for 30$. I mounted it on a shotgun and sighted it for 50 yards. 10 rounds out of 10 got straight into the bulls-eye. Only one complaint is, that in the bright sun the cross-hair is practically invisible. Well, you can't have everything when you buy the CHEAPEST product on the market.
I bought it just to test the concept and it surpassed my expectations.

Bought this as kind a novelty item for my Mossberg 500. It arrived in a nice package that was bubbled rapped. I pulled it out and the first thing you notice is the solid construction. It's very solid metal of some sort, the glass is very clear and easy to see through. It attached very easy to my picatinny rail and seemed to hold firm. I went shooting with 3" slugs and after getting it zero'd in I was shooting 2" groupings at 50 yards with no problem. It held zero the whole time and I haven't had a single problem with it. Having 4 different reticles to choose from is very nice, they're all very bright even in direct sunlight. Overall I can't really find any problems with it.

I was really hesitant to buy this, all the bad reviews made me think i shouldnt waste the money. Well I got it. In southwestern michigan, it gets pretty sunny at times, and I wanted to check this out, I put on my sun glasses and I can still see it bright as day. This is absolutely worth the money! It is bright, and works on sunny days :)

So far so good fits on my Ruger Mark III Hunter very nicely. I really like the multiple reticle option and color. Great quality for the money. Haven't had a chance to sight it in though. Hope that goes as well as the installation....

It works ok indoors. Once you are outdoors, if the day is sunny the red dot is invisible, even when used with strongest backlight (position 7).

Useless for outdoors.
