Things I liked:

Love the adjustable brightness and two color options. It seems to have plenty of brightness for full sun and I've been sighting it outside with snow on the ground. It looks great and it works so much better than open sights! I like it.

Things I would have changed:

Slightly smaller MOA dot - 2 or 3 would be great.

What others should know:

Make sure to get some kind of rail adapter if planning to mount this on a dovetail. I bought the UTG Weaver-to-11mm units for my 2289g and it worked perfectly. Also I don't use the quick release. I just tighten the allen adjustment bolt with the latch down to keep it firmly mounted.

Things I liked:

The sight was just as described , easy to mount, easy to adjust and works great . Definitely worth the money.

Things I would have changed:

You might want to post an accessory mount with this sight as I had to order one to fit my Henry 22 Lever action rifle .

    Things I liked:

    Well made, rugged optic. Easily my favorite among all the look-alikes I have tried. Great small clear dot size, super clear and sharp lenses.

    Things I would have changed:

    Nothing! Darn fine optic for any air gun.

    What others should know:

    Bought this for a break barrel pistol, but now it shines on my Shockwave .22 out to 40 yards or so. Farther if my tired eyes could utilize it better.

    Things I liked:

    quick acquisition of target with circle easily putting dot precisely. great for hunting out to 50 yards or more if you can shoot that well. dot is visible in all light. lens caps protect lens. easy to zero.

    Things I would have changed:

    good the way it is

    What others should know:

    works on dovetail mount with adaptor

    Things I liked:

    This is a nifty little sight. It is compact, rugged, great mounting system and I love the reticle....a dot in a circle.

    Things I would have changed:

    It is heavy. I purchased the sight for an air pistol, but think it is too heavy. While I love the reticle, it will be far better on a rifle. I am still quite pleased with this sight, and it now lives on one of my rifles.

    What others should know:

    The red/green dot adjusts to a very small dot that is great for targets or hunting small critters, like flys and insects.

    Things I liked:

    I like everything about this little red dot. The quick release and mount are super easy to swap it out to another gun. Works great in day and night. I like the fact that it is so light you don't even know it's there, it's also great on my crosman 1322. You can't beat the price either. I have 2 of these, 1 is the circle dot and the other is a T reticle. Both are great for acquiring target fast.

    Things I would have changed:

    I really don't think I'd change anything, maybe offer it up with or without the quick detach, maybe a 11mm dovetail mount.

    What others should know:

    I found both of mine pretty easy to sight in. And once sighted in they stay there. Once you use one you'll love it.

    Things I liked:

    Excellent red dot for the money. The dot has a circle around it for even better aiming. Mounts easily and secure on a picatinny rail. Great product.

    Things I would have changed:

    I would like to see tabs to turn for adjustments rather than having to use a screwdriver.

    What others should know:

    It holds once you have it sighted in. You will enjoy it.

    Things I liked:

    Things I would have changed:

    the quick release mount, Id rather see hex bolts.

    What others should know:

    I havent tried to sight it in yet, so time will tell.

    Things I liked:

    I Like IT, The ease in which it was to mount, setup, use, out of the box dot high at 25 yds. High setting for daytime is great, Now night time must be on low, I use a streamlight Stinger with a red cap and the red dot is just fine, I mount this on my Benjamin Eagles .22/.177 no changes are needed.

    Things I would have changed:

    It is just fine the way it is. I mount this on my Benjamin Eagles .22/.177 no changes are needed.

    What others should know:

    I mount this on my Benjamin Eagles .22/.177 no changes are needed, you do need to change dot to target location depending on your pellets.

    Things I liked:

    This is a Great Compact Circle Dot Sight. Lights up very bright on high setting !!

    Things I would have changed:

    I don't think I would change a thing this Green/Red Dot Sight is great as is !!!!

    What others should know:

    This is a great Dot Sight with a circle around the Dot very easy to get your target sighted very quickly. I have to use on 1 or 2 setting because this gets very bright on higher settings but I think that's a good thing it will probably save on battery replacement ?? It took me some time to sight in but once I did, Dead on shots & can hit a 1" black target patch at 20' free hand.This took me time to sight in because of cold weather & I think directions were reverse ? So I started the opposite way & sure enough that worked for me, I had to turn windage & elevation to where I wanted shots to hit. It's more like sighting in a scope but once sighted in it's deadly accurate & I love it. Looks great on my gun and very easy to get on target !! Has quick detach & you can prob put on other guns as well ? I'm very happy with it & for the price it seems very well built & sturdy, I think this may be the best Dot sight for the price and would buy another one. It comes with an extra Battery too !!!

    Things I liked:

    Easy on the man purse, Dual colors. Quicker target acquisition than a scope, Multiple levels of brightness. dropped a few times and still kicking so rugged enough. I don't mind the quick detach too much once I adjusted its tightness.

    Things I would have changed:

    If they had one more setting to make it a little dimmer it would be perfect at night. Its still decent for the money but even at the lowest setting at night the dot looks more starlike than round so for me the 2 strong settings are never used even in daytime. Daytime it does not have this problem especially on the lowest setting its perfect . Its not really a big deal unless your going to attempt 50plus yard shots at sparrows. This is where the fine dot really helps with accuracy since a sparrow is less than the dot size at 40-50 yards. The dimness settings really helps see thru the dot to the target. There are lighter dot sights out there if weight is an issue.

    What others should know:

    I used this on a 1377 w stock utg adapter weaver rail, also on a titan .22, and a discovery .22. Hasn't disappointed. Holds it zero. Not much else to say about a dot shining on mirrored glass. Not the greatest not the worst but probably the best under 40 bucks. Hence 5 stars. Plinkers and short range hunters this is for you.

    Things I liked:

    light and compact, make it easy to carry your gun around. The circle dot, dual color lights and brightness choices are great.

    Things I would have changed:

    Make it so other accessories could be attached, such as laser or lights

    What others should know:

    This is great for short distance shooting because there is no adjustment, like in scopes and it lets you follow your moving target better than scopes.
