Price, but you get what you pay for.

Secure the adjustment plate to the base mount. It moves all over the place and will not stay sighted

Not built all that well and will not stay sighted in. Auctualy had to tape the top of the sight to the base for it to hold sightinbut then you can't adjustanymore. Dot flickers quite a bit. Maybe this would be good for a paintball marker. Not for accurate shooting

Not much but what do you expect for the price. Weaver mounts both came threaded instead of just one so I had to drill out one. Plastic adjustment wheel for up and down broke into peices the first time I tried adjusting.

Man it would be nice to buy something that isnt made in China. Its just for a BB pistol but man really poor quality.

This review has nothing to do with Pyramyd Air they are the best I have found to deal with period, and I know they would take it back but its working. I just have to adjust the up and down with small pliers. Not worth the time to try with another that would be no better.

Inexpensive.

Improve the quality. The sight was not secure on its own mount. Even though it was securely mounted on the Weaver Rail. The lens portion was loose and made it impossible to "Zero it in."

It appeared to be a previously returned item. If you are going to resell these items they should be thoroughly inspected and tested first.

I wanted a quick aim red dot sight that was inexpensive, but it had to have a fairly well defined dot and a larger field of view than than some of the other sights I had seen. This sight is excellent for the money. I don't have much experience with red dot sights, but some of the others I looked at had fuzzy red blobs instead of precise dots. This sight was much better. Easy adjustments and easy battery access.

The finish on top needs to be less reflective. Although it is a textured finish, it is textured plastic that gives a red streak reflection when looking through the sight. A piece of cloth camo tape cut to fit between the light and the lens worked well.

The Leapers Quick Aim Electronic Sight is a good sight for the money. It is my first experience with a dot sight. My eyes have trouble focusing with open sights and I thought the low cost of the Leapers would allow me to try a dot sight without investing a lot of money to find out if it would improve my shooting. It worked great for me. It was easy to mount on my new Crossman 1077, and it has a bright sharp red dot with a large field of vision and you can shoot with both eyes open.

At under a ten dollar cost for the sight I can’t see what could be changed to improve the sight other than tightening the tolerances on the adjusting mechanism specs and enforcing better quality control of the product.

The sight adjusting screws are sloppy and have no feel when you make adjustments but it appears to stay adjusted when you get it zeroed in. I also had to use a drop of Super glue to hold the on/off switch in place

great sight for short range especially for pistols-surprisingly stable

adjustments for windage and elevation are not real positive different battery compartment if this could be done without major increase in price

sight must be removed to change battery ( not enough clearance for cover) but if done carefully does not require re-zeroing sight

Has a very low price to give you a taste of what an electronic dot sight is like to use. Mounts well onto Weaver/Picatinny rail and has a set of grips for 11 mm dovetails. Comes with extra CR2032 battery.

If the could improve the mounting design of the platform that has the window and dot projector but not increase the price by more than $5, it might get my rating from a 2-star to a 3 or 4-star.

With the recoil of my Steel Storm that I use it on, the dot projector/window platform loosened upon its adjusters after jut a couple hundred shots. The o-rings under the adjuster knobs as suggested by others helps some but the adjusting threads in the platform get so loose that it flops around way too much. I added some foam rubber pads in strategic places to take up the slop but its still only marginally acceptable for plinking and not very good for target shooting.

light,fast, low cost - ideal for low priced air pistol easy to mount and zero in

? battery holder

scope must be removed from gun to change battery - not enough clearance between scope and gun to remove battery cover no big deal and very little (if any) sighting in required

Price, two mounts. I have it on my steel storm. working good now..

The way you adjust it is just to cheap and loose..

I took the adjusting knobs off and put small o-rings under them. Now they stay where i adjust it to. If you try this just be careful and use a screw driver in the screws to hold them tight as you take the knobs off and putting them back on.

The old saying "you get what you pay for" doesn't apply here, you actually get LESS than you pay for. I threw it away after an hour of trying the get it adjusted to show a single dot of light instead of a dispersed pattern of dots. It's not worth the $ to send it back. Sent Leapers an e-mail. I should have known better. Do yourself a favor and pass on this.

Simple & effective. Works on most rails and has interchangable mounting clamps..

Rubber cap that holds battery was not that secure. Could be made a bit better but at the price, it gets the job done. In certain light situations, you see a reflection in the lens making it hard to focus on your target.

The spare battery was dead & there was some slight corrosion on the few metal parts. I guess coming from overseas you can expect this sometimes.

Price that was it.

The red dot on this unit is very hard to tell its on. Its also very hard to adjust and get acurrate.

Save your money and buy a better red dot sight or even better buy a scopr.

The price is right and the mount works well. This sight has a small enough base that is fits well in minimal space. Great scope for application on lower cost pistols.

Nothing - Anything that would upgrade this scope would also upgrade the price. You get what you pay for.

The on/off switch came loose after the first week. The dot changes intensity and goes out from time to time. Battery life is just so so.

Price Price Price and stays secure on the rail

Better battery cover which falls off from time to time. Red Dot goes off from time to time.

It is a good sight when working but I would spend a little more and get something more reliable and better built.

I just wanted to try one of these electronic red dot sights on my crossman 1377 air pistol to see if it would help or not. I was not really expecting a whole lot for the price but I have to say that after mounting it and sighting it in. I was completely impressed. I think that if you are interested in one of these, I would highly suggest this one. It is very accurate and helps with quick target acquistion. I would definately recommend to a friend. It even comes with an extra battery.

The whole thing is made of plastic but it does the job just fine. There is only a on and off switch, you can not adjust the brightness of the red dot.

Extremely the best bang for the buck and would recommend it to everyone.

It's really not that bad.

A little more reliable.

When i got it, i thought it was just a cheap buy to try to get my gun more accurate, and i was surprised how accurate this thing really is.

Price. Fun to use when it works.

Mine came with 2 batteries, 1 installed. Both batts test good, but my unit works when it feels like it (about half the time). Red dot goes out for no apparent reason, then will come back on again for no apparent reason--very frustrating!

Consider springing for a higher quality unit. I decided not to send mine back or even complain, since it was too cheap to warrant the hassle/expense of shipping. I only write this review since Pyramyd Air emailed me and asked me to.

Its easy to install, looks great and is an over all great buy.

The plastic is okay but metal would be better

it is pretty easy to adjust and install, and the adjustment features have a pretty wide range of motion.

Ease of installation of course. Simple to function.

Metal construction for sturdiness and ability to hold up from banging.

This item is installed and I need to sight it in. I would have given higher rating but the plastic construction of this item feels a bit flimsy to me. Plus it appears to sit a a very slight cocked angle for some reason.

Inexpensive, and it works. The dot is bright and crisp, not blurry. Can use it on both Weaver/RIS and 3/8 dovetail rails. It comes with an extra battery.

The adjustment turrets seem loose and do not click as you turn them. I fear that they may be easily bumped out of alignment. The battery cover slips over the battery and does not screw on. The Weaver mounts just clamp the rail and do not lock into one of the groves. This sight has some exposed circuitry and is in no way weather proof.

Despite its flaws it is a good sight. The quality of the reticle itself is unbelievable for a sight in its price range. I put this on my Remington TAC 1 air soft gun, and the sight works great for what I use it for. Honestly, the best part about this red dot is that it is so inexpensive, that it can be considered disposable. If I brake it, I can just get another one.
