The sight was pretty easy to site in, the adjusments needed were few. The price is great to, I like it out to about 40ft after that it's more miss than hit.

nothing really for the price you can replace easy enough

The site is small so it may be a little hard to use on longer rifles I would stick to less than 40 inches.

simplicity of design and ease of setup. - I mounted 2 on a pair of SP-2 pistols and they made a great team.

On 1 of 3 ordered- the battery box hold down screw and battery broke off in shipment. The red dot (even with 2 settings is a little big.

If your getting double dots- take off your glasses. Something about the reflective pane doesn't like glasses.

Small profile, lightweight, good variable eye relief, very economical, it does the job quite well.

The battery contact post inside the battery compartment is much too fragile and broke off when I opened the compartment in two of the three I've bought. I was as careful as I could be when opening the compartment but care didn't seem to make any difference. A simple, safe way to remove the cover would be nice.

I fixed one of the two broken electrical contacts with super glue but the other one seems determined to stay broken regardless of attempts to glue it back in place. There is not much gluing area to work with and assuring electrical contact is tricky.

When set right seems to sight in well.

Stronger base for battery hold down set screw.

Did not read directions for battery removal so don't know if i screwed up, but when removing battery by trying to slide it out the base for hold down set screw broke and this for two sights bought. So I would suggest to remove screw. Also may need locktight for the slight adjustment nuts it gets loose and sight wobbles.

This device takes guns with mediocre sights and consequently poor accuracy and gives them a new life, making them fun to shoot and much more enjoyable for their owner. I really like the compactness and Pyramyd's price.

Nothing

About as good as you can get unless you spend upward of $30 for one. Easy to adjust and accurate for a pellet pistol (you only need to go out 30 feet or so). Probably would want something better if you have a rifle. I use it on a Crosman 1377.

marking for direction on adjusters.

If you want a cheap useful sight for under 50 feet this one is great especially at $10. I have not had any problems but for the price I would replace it with another if I broke it.

Size and cost

Nothing

It's very light and works exactly how it's supposed to.

Inexpensive and good enough for stopping rogue tin cans dead in their tracks.

Well, if Daisy is gonna keep this priced at around $10 or so they won't be able to make the changes I would like to see. But if I had my druthers, I'd like to see a smaller, sharper red dot and much improved windage and elevation adjustments.

Two things, both of which have been mentioned by other reviewers.

First, the red dot is honkin' big and will cover the entire bullseye of a standard target outside of a few yards. A soft drink can at 25 yards is pretty much obscured by it. My middle-aged eyes suck bad enough as it is - a smaller dot would do wonders for me.

Second, the windage and elevation screws leave a lot to be desired in that you have to keep fiddling with tightening the TEENY little nut on each and then re-sighting until you get a zero. If you don't go through this, meaning if you don't go to the trouble of sighting and re-sighting in order to get the nuts good and tight, you won't hold a zero very long. Probably best to tighten them before sighting, then use a small wrench to hold the nut immobile when you turn the adjustment screw.

Overall, for the price, it's pretty decent for just plinking around, but no serious shooter will want to give it a second glance.

Cheap

The screw and nut system for adjusting windage and elevation is really terrible. The red dot is large and not well defined and covers the entire bulls eye so don't expect pin point shooting.'

Once you have sighted in you must tighten up the little nuts or else it will go out of wack after a few shots. The nuts are tiny and if you have a wrench of that size in your tool box you'll be lucky. The problem is that when you tighten the nuts you will be off target because the screw moves so you will have to re sight again. The trick is to hold the screw so that it doesn't move while you tighten the nut. You will need a vice or a friend to help you out for this to work.If you can afford something better go for it. I have one fitted to my Crosman 357 and am getting some fun out of it and will admit that its better for me because of my lousy eyesight. Not for serious shooters.

price is right ,easy to use sights quickly ,mounted to my phantom 1000 easily

red dot is far too large for small targeting ,covers entire target @20 yds ,had to go with old crossman red dot for accuracy
