Leapers Golden Image Red/Green Dot Sight, 1" Tube, Weaver & 11mm Dovetail Combo

Nice tactical style, compact, clear optics, easy adjustment. Sounds good right? So why only 2 stars? The dot is often(not always)not a dot but a oblong double dot. This leaves me having to decide what part of the blob do I put on the target. That's not a problem with large prey, close up, but if I'm trying to get a clean kill (head shot) on a homestead pest at a little longer range, and at night, that IS a problem.

More consistent dot definition.

Red dot sights are awesome for short range guns if you need fast target acquisition as in pest control. I use mine on my Crosman 1377 w/shoulder stock and muzzle light, and it makes a great combo.

Well made, great construction, easy to sight in due to elev & windage adjustments having raised grips for tuning, and sights kept sighted in w/ the covers (unlike my friends scope w/ noncovered adjustable turret style, his 3 year old went and click,click,clicked a turret and he had no idea which one!! While he was getting ready to head out to a shoot with me :) ) I really like the continuous adjusting brightness levels instead of just having a few detents, so you can make it exactly how you want it. Also as always with a 1x mag dot scope quick target acquisition is all so easy. First day out on my Marauder pcp pistol i got 25 birds all from around 35 to 80'. Love the flip up covers coming stock w/ it also!! Great scope!!

I know it's too much to ask but .... quick detach scope rings! :) As for what to change with the scope... Nothing!

came with two sets of rings

dot was blurry.not clear.,did not like put it away,wont use,

don't buy

red and green dots, adjustable brightness

could go dimmer for use at dusk, 1" tube really has field of view of a 1/2 inch tube due to spacer / optics, could use better optic coatings - hard to use in low light or on moving targets due to reflections, poor light transmission, and narrow inner tube.

Appears to be well made although I have not had time to properly site it in.

I would like a light on the outside that would indicate that the red dot was left on. It is easy to forget to turn it off and burn through a battery.

Dots very visible in brite sunlite. Easy to adjust. Compact.

Nothing

This is not a bad choice for the money. There are now fewer birds eating my dog's food.

nice size and appearance

the dot appeared fuzzy to several people - not just my old eyes - and both the red and green dots were far too large for short-range shooting. At 25 yards the dot covered ab area of approximately two inches which made it less accruate to shoot than iron sights. Was not well suited to be used on the Ruger Youth Explorer as suggested by Pyramid Air, as it would require higher scope mounts to see above the non-removable front sights on this rifle. We sent it back for these reasons and lost out on the $10 shipping fee! Bummer!

Be sure to purchase the proper mounts to match the rifle and do not rely on the recommendations by Pyramid Air for particular rifles that this is suited for. Be aware that the dot is too large to be accurate.

Seems well made with bright, small dots giving the option of red or green.

Parallas is set for 100 yards or so making the scope unuseable at air gun ranges. slight movement of the eye moves the point of aim significantly. The factory should adjust the parallax for 20 yards or thereabouts for airgunners.

Don't bother. This scope will give poor accuracy because of parallax, and the parallax setting is not user adjustable.

This is a very well made scope that allows for two mounting applications. I particularly like the red or green DOT light sights for day or night use. The lense covers fit well and are easy to open or close.

Really nothing except to make the red/grn light brighter.

This scope has a 1" tube and when sighting through it, the effect is a narrow tunnel vision to your target. I mounted this scope to my Crossman 357 revolver which has a 11mm dovetail rail. Because this gun breaks open for loading of the ammo clip, you need to mount the scope to the Leaper's Bi-Directional offset dovetail base to allow your finger room to depress the barrell release tab. Accuracy is really increased with this scope.

Nice scope, red and green dot a plus, elevation and windage adjustments make life easy

make it a little smaller. I purchased it to use with the Browning Mag 800 and it was just a 1/4" too long for the pistol, the Mag 800 is a break-barrel and it just caught the edge of the scope when I cocked the pistol

too long for many pistols
