4.0 out of 5 stars Inexpensive - somewhat cheap, January 25, 2009

This review is from: NcSTAR® Red Dot Reflex Sight with 4 Different Reticles (Sports)

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.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent value for the cost., May 25, 2009

I purchased this site for one of my AR projects. I was a little leary of the quality vs cost issue, but was pleasantly surprised in the end. The multiple siting reticules in red or green are crisp and very bright when set on the highest intensity level. Easily acquired in the brightest sunlight. Mounts easily to any picatinny rail and is easily sited in. Quick target acquisition and a crystal clear lens. Still on target after 300 rounds of .223, so if you have any doubts about the robustness of this site, fear not.

So, to recap:
Easy to mount and site in, stays on target after many rounds, multiple reticules in red or green and excellent bang for the buck. (Pun intended)

5.0 out of 5 stars So far, so great., September 19, 2008

By 

RugerRedhawk (Upstate NY, USA) - See all my reviews

I just received one of these, paid $40 for it. I was very impressed with the package as a whole. It came with a rubber lens cover, instructions, a warranty card, and a cloth for cleaning the lens. I easily mounted this unit to a browning buckmark. It looks and feels great. Switching between the reticles does not change the zero and there are no issues with parallax even at close distances. It feels very rugged. For the money, you really cannot go wrong with one of these, especially on a low recoil gun like the .22. The best part is the manufacturer warranty of a full 3 years. This calms my questions about the long term durability of such an inexpensive scope. I will recommend this to anyone.
