Page 2 - UTG 30mm Red/Green Dot Sight Reviews

A great optic at a reasonable price.

Nothing

This optic changed my Browning 800 Express with junk rear sight to a real tac driver. Plus I can use this sight on my other guns as well. Be sure to put thread locker (blue) on all mounting screws.

Price, quality of construction, value, and functionality. I purchased the UTG Red/Green Dot scope for use on my 2300KT Co2 pistol (a custom shop version of the Crosman 2240). It works great, even on the small steel breech (with the right adapter). It took several shots to zero in, but holds zero well. The dots are crisp and clear.

Nothing

You need to take care not to mount the dot sight backwards. It's fairly straightforward, but for those who might not be used to a red dot, the "UTG" symbol should be on the left side and the elevation turret will be to the rear. If your dot is fuzzy or just a blob, you probably mounted it backwards.

Simple, Works great!

Small, compact.

Not much, it's OK.

I bought this as part of a package deal with a Winchester M14. It sits too high for the comb of the stock, making it awkward to use. I think a 4x32 scope in low mounts would be a better choice for the M14 pellet gun. I think this thing is going to end up on one of my 10/22's, which is a better place for it. Other reviewers mentioned mounting it on a 1377, so if that works I may put it on either my 1377 or my 1322 with a buttstock. I hope that doesn't work out too well, because then I'd have to buy another one.

I placed this on my Hatsan 25 supercharger pistol. I am 55 and open sights are getting difficult to use. Having color choice for the dot helps when lining up on different color targets. I tend to use the green dot more than red.

Nothing, it works well and was an acceptable price.

This red/green dot sight was purchased to use on my new Umarex Steel Storm bb pistol. It fit and works exactly as I expected. The sighting in took about 15 minutes to complete and is still right on. I used a beer bottle cap at 20 feet as the sighting in target and in this applicationon, the Steel Storm B.B. pistol if far more accurate than I expected. A perfect combination.

Not much. The mounting to the Picatinny rail is secured by screws rather than a quick disconnect lever but for the price, this method is fine and is surely secure.

With the red/green sight installed, my Steel Storm will not fit in factory box without some modification. A forward tactical grip (available from Pyramid Air) really puts the finishing touch on my Steel Storm system. Easy to hold, aim and shoot accurately and not have to worry about your thumb being in the way of the bb magazine follower hold open tab.

Nice quality, solid red/green sight. I have a Crosman 1377 which is a good pistol but the original open sights consistently shot high and to the right and I had no room for adjustment. I contacted Pyramyd via chat explained that I wanted better accuracy at a reasonable cost. They recommended the steel breech kit for the 1377, and the dovetail to Picatinny adapters & the UTG sight. All I can say is WOW. Easy to mount, nice optics and choice of red/green dots that illuminate nicely. So I installed the kits & scope & began to sight in at 20 feet. Out of the box I was only a little low and to the left but that was easily corrected with the solid windage & elevation adjustments. I then go back 30 feet and tweak it in a little more & was able to hit a half dollar size bulls eye with nice grouping. I then throw a couple of pop cans in the back yard & in a free stance was able to consistently hit the cans at 100 feet or so. The sight is awesome & thanks to Pyramyd for their support!

The lens covers are mounted to flip up when using the sight, but I found it distracting. But not a big deal, they are easily removed so they are out of the way and I just snap them on when I am done using them.

Great sight, just remember to turn off when finished. Two batteries are supplied and the are common 2032's which you can get anywhere.

Nice ,works great Great price!

Nothing!

Secure fit !

Everything

Would rather have lever locks instead of screws for the mounting.

I have this mounted on a RWS model 34 and have about 50 or 60 rounds so far it is rock solid. I zeroed it in with my bore sighter and havent needed to change the dials. I prefer the green color dot over the red as it shows up better on my targets. If your looking for a good dot sight for great price this is it.

two color dot is a nice choice to have

Super easy to mount and sight in. Love the lens covers.

Nothing.

I got this for a Crosman M-4. It performs well. I would advise readers to check out "customer images" of a dot sight mounted on a firearm. He rode it far forward on the rail, so I did the same. It gives you a nice hand hold on the gun body to hold while pumping. Also, it make it easier to center the dot like pros say a shooter must do with proper head position.

Nothing

This is perfect for Crosman pump loyalists! Some folks seem to think it is ok to hold a gun by the scope while pumping. I do not. This small optic - with no image shake because of low magnification - sits perfectly on the edge of the weaver rail. This keeps it clear of a jarring hand, leaves it undisturbed, and should work well on the Bushmaster and 2100. For the 2100, ride it slightly off the edge of the dovetail - which that should be fine with UTG adapter you will need to covert it to weaver.

i like the ease of mounting & click adjustments

the off position should be better marked with a white "0" or "off"

retighten the mounting screws

Very compact, adjustable intensity of light in both red and green, dot is a good size and with light level adjustment does not interfere excessively with target, large field of view for quick acquisition. weaver mounts hold well.

As pictures the lens cover DO NOT go straight up and out of the way. They do flip all over the controls and adjustment knobs. So get everything ready prior to shooting and this will interfere at possibly the worst moment.

First time with this type of scope, for a pistol it seems fine for the price, it holds zero well enough for now but for the gun it's on I should have purchased a different setup due to the fact it is a weaver and I had to adapt it to a .22 11mm dove... Not fun and not the best set up. It can transfer to my other guns however and may end up on them soon enough,.

Nice clear sight picture but....

The dots, red or green, hardly visible at highest power setting, even on indoor target range. Also has two small dots instead of one.

Buy the BSA 30mm Red Dot sight with 3/8" Weaver Mount. It's $5 cheaper! Much better dot, even at lowest power. I've got two of these sights. Both work well.

Great look. Extremely great visual at your preferred brightness (red or green). Attaches effortlessly to rail on my revolver or rifle.

More user friendly elevation and windage adjustments.

I like this airgun scope it was very easy to set up the seting, And the 30 millimeter scope was very clear.

I Would not change a thing.

The scope was good at 25 yards for the air gun, I want to try it on my shotgun.
