Page 5 - UTG 30mm Red/Green Dot Sight Reviews

Works beautifully, but be sure to keep both eyes open!

Allow adjustment without a screw driver. Have an auto shutoff after some number of minutes.

Easy to use and set up.

Provide or include a setting for a smaller dot with lower level of illuminating intensity for indoor use. The smallest dot covers the entire #7-10 rings on a 10 meter pistol target so a smaller dot will allow for a better target acquisition.

Trust the settings provided via the windage and elevation adjustements on the scope. They are very accurate.

looks ,accuracy

nothing

fits over the bb hopper on an ebos.

Easy to mount and adjust. Price is very reasonable for beginning shooters.

The adjustment for the brightness of the red or green dot is very hard to turn.

This scope provides a good starting level dot scope, but don't be surprised at the width of the dot. The dot size adjusts, but even on the smallest size adjustment, the dot is still pretty wide. OK for match shooting at 10 meters, but may not want this scope for longer distances.

Simple mounting

Nothing

Dot is a little large but still functions for general applications.

Easy to use, sight in, and is accurate based on several 5 shot groupings. The attached lens caps actually tilt in more (front cap rearward-- rear cap forward) than what the picture shows, making it a bit more attractive.

When sighting in the scope at 20 feet,the elevation adjustment knob needs quite a few turns as one might expect.

sale price. ease of setup/use. quick to acquire target and zero in.

none

Firmly mounts, covers for lenses, red and green, (both work great) uses CR2032 which is a standard battery for garage door openers and other smaller objects.

Nothing

I lifted it off of the M4 to make it easier to see through. (More of a comfort thing over a requirement)

Nice fit and finish. Mounted well to my Crosman 1377 with the UTG 3/8 dovetail to picatinny rail adapter. Bright optics. Easy target acquisition. Great for plinking.

The dot itself is a little large especially at low light. May be better with a more will formed dot.

Great boost to accuracy and easy to use. Simple sighting for new shooters. May not be the best option for target accuracy.

everything

Higher Mount

It has both red and green dots which helps when you are shooting indoors or out. Size is perfect and the flip up lens protectors helps when storing because you can't loose them. Solid construction for the price.

Have a quick release mount for easy removal but this probably increase the price.

Your eye will pick up the dot quickly and viewing through the scopefor a long period of time does not put a strain on your vision.

All you need is a dime and its mounted and zero'd. I love how easy two use and how many light settings it has. It's nice to switch from red to green.

I can not think of one it's the right dot for me and how it looks in the picture.

Works great on the Steel Storm!

Solid construction, easily sighted in, great all around red dot

I'm not a huge fan of the flip up covers, I would like to see a totally removable lens cover. Also, a simply on/off switch would be nice. Nothing major

I use this with my KWA M4A1. In using this sight, I was lock onto people quicker than normal. Great red dot! Definitely a steal for ~$30.

Great sight for the price.

So I bought a break barrel air rifle and a decent 10x scope with high hopes that I would be putting pellets in the same hole at 30 yards. After a few thousand pellets, 2 other scopes, new mounts, trigger upgrade, mastering the artillery hold, and several headaches, I was still lucky to get 6" groups....or I'd get some great groups and after 20 shots, my groups would "move" to another point. (any of this sound familiar?) So I picked one of these up because it was cheap and I figured I could at least plink cans with it. Turns out I am more accurate with this than with any scope I've tried. Maybe not same hole accuracy, but at 30-40 yards I can hit my 1" spinner target, and that makes me smile. You would think that having 10x magnification on a scope would lead to 10x better accuracy, but optical magnification leads to parallax error magnification as well. Most scopes allow for adjustment, but it really doesn't seem to work well below 50 yards, which is where I typically shoot. this red dot has no magnification, thus parallax is significantly reduced. The dot is a bit big (it just covers my 1" spinner at about 30 yards), but it works. It beats iron sights as well. The dot allows for much faster target acquisition, and no eye fatigue. My old man can't see iron sights any more, but he had a blast with this. I have since purchased two more, and have had no problems with any of them. For the price, you can't do better.

An auto off feature would be nice. There's nothing worse than realizing that you left it on overnight and killed the battery.

Mounts easily. Lense covers are nice. Ease of adjustment for windage and elivation. This unit gets 5 stars because of the combined quality and price.

Dots could be rounder. They are more shaped like a sock but they are useable. The scope picks up a bit of glare in bright sunlight but again, this is not a $200.00 or 600.00 scope and for the money I doubt you can beat it.

This scope is close to paralex free at a bargin price. It looks good and feels solid. I hope it holds up. The red or green dot option is sweet. This is far superior to the BSA red dot with more brightness settings. It's really a nice item for the price point.

It works better than I expected.Like choice between red and green.Looks really sharp and allows fast acquisition of targets.I use this on 2240 w/14.5 in. barrel and will get another for a 2240 carbine W/18 in. barrel I,m working on now.Also,love the price.

Dot should be clearer has a little fuzz and needs choice of dot,circle dot,circle w/ cross in center or reticle also make it 2.5 x. I know, I know I want everything made my way. But, I'm willing to pay more to get more. Make it in dove tail mount.Needed to get an adaptor and when you use one it is more difficult to zero in I don't even have a rifle or pistol w/weaver rail.

This guy is worth every penny.He's a hard little worker

I love this red dot sight. I put it on a umerex steel storm and it works great even in bright sun light. I have had $100 red dot sight that don't work this good. Pyramyd air has great service.

nothing.

Buy it, you can't beat the price.

Easy to see during the day. Easy to adjust the sight. Easy to attach. Very sturdy, doesn't move. Open area around the sight to see everything else as apposed to iron sights that limit sight. The protectors don't get in the way at all, they just flip up and stay there.

Better instructions for re-adjustment of the sight, or maybe I just need to be smarter haha.

Very nice sight, well worth the price, and it is also very intimidating to have one of these on your gun.

The Quality and the Look of the UTG products add a real nice appearance to whatever you mount them to. I've put on each of my Umarex's Steel Storm and EBOS. They work well and are easily adjustable. The Red/ Green Dot's work well in all outdoor light levels. Inner packaging (and outer) are done well to protect the sights in shipping. Comes with cleaning cloth and batteries. Very cool !

Nothing - Good price and good quaility.

All the UTG products have not let me down - ever, so far - so good. Good construction - well thought out. The wonderful selection thru Pyramyd Air is un-matched, Combined with fast service and order follow-up - I would recommend these products to my friends. Thanks.
