Best Gun Scopes
There is no need for centering, due to the parallax free design in which the dot follows the movement of the user’s eye while remaining fixed on the target. An illumination setting that is too high for ambient light conditions typically results in a dot that appears distorted and non-concentric. For best results, increase the red dot setting until the scope gives the user an aiming reference that is perceptible but not glaring. Finish: Matte, Realtree APG Camo Power / Obj Lens: 1 x 25mm Reticle: 3 MOA Red Dot Field of View: Unlimited Weight (oz/g): 3.7 / 106 Length (in/mm): 2.4 / 61.8 Eye Relief: Unlimited Click Value (in@100 yds / mm@100m): .5 / 14 Adj Range (in@100yds / m@100m): 70 / 1.9 Mounting Length (in/mm): 1.1 / 28. The company's guiding principle is to provide the highest quality, most reliable, and most affordable sports optics products on the market. Bushnell product lines enhance the enjoyment of every outdoor pursuit, including nature study, hunting, fishing, birding, and stargazing. Indoors, the company's binoculars bring the audience closer to the action in fast-moving sports or the fine arts at theaters and concerts. TILTED front lens reflects LED light to create red dot; Colors on the lettering May vary. Red dot may appear blurry or misshapen if the dot intensity is set too high for the ambient light conditions (most likely to occur indoors with artificial light).

"Rear cap attachment ring had to be trimmed down to the flip up hinge leaving about a 1/4 to 1/2 inch of attachment ring. Little super glue to both ends of red dot and slide them on."
"Not sure about the sight, but I give Midwest Archery 5 stars."
"The weight and size is impressive especially attached to an AR where every ounce counts when carrying the rifle around the woods or target shooting all afternoon. The batteries are cheap and plentiful with a life of about 3000 hours on low, so you can expect 1000 on high maybe, still a good chunk of time for such a small battery."
"Very highly recommended product."
"I have had one for a few years and it is great."
"With a UTG mid level riser, this co-witnessed perfectly with the irons on my M&P Sport II."
"Red dot was not visible or illuminated."
Detent and spring pressure keeps sight erect but allows for unobstructed folding under impact, etc.

"They do seem fairly durable and will probably take a beating but do not expect these to be great at anything over 100 yards."
"Worked great, adjusted front sight down a little and lined up perfect with my red dot sight."
"Split it for Large hole for Close Range."
"its magpul so i trust it but ive ordered a few of these and the front sight post has been bent."
"A friend of mine said his cheap brand flip up sights had weak springs and would flip up on their own every time they fired."
"Pretty easy to install, even without reading the instructions or having prior experience."
"After many hours of research I decided to purchase the Magpul MBUS Generation II Sight Set for my Bushmaster XM15-E2S, in order to back up my red-dot scope. You could find cheaper sights, but remember you get what you pay for, and you can't go wrong with Magpul."

This scope was bought to replace a CVLife 3-9x32 unit which had a HORRIBLY short eye relief. I'll definitely be updating this weekend once I get some rounds put through it, and will also get some video of the scope functions including the turrets, as well as the colored reticles. The scope was easy to adjust, and seemed to work well enough. Later I'll set it up with a 200yd zero using 123 grain Hornady SST ballistic tips...but for now I just wanted to get it shooting the Wolf 100 grain FMJBT I have on hand. Final result was about 2.5MOA...but keep in mind this was in no way the scope's fault."
"After 2 years of regular and rugged use, I have never encountered any function issues with the scope or the QD rings. In addition to regular knocks, jolts, and scrapes, it is able to withstand the recoil of a spring powered air rifle (the bilateral forces of a spring piston are notorious for destroying good firearm scopes). Regardless of the host of this scope, I have always found myself uncomfortable with how far I have to lean in to get proper eye relief."
"Scope is very clear and bright, reticle is crisp."
"Bought one for my AR and it was easy to install."
"How this scope does not cost 2-3 x more than it does is beyond me. This is a great product."

Find Best Price at Amazon"The front sight fits slightly loose in the slide slot just as it should so you can make adjustments for proper alignment. I set mine straight with a small straight edge/ruler laying up against it and down the length of the slide BEFORE I put the rear sight on and it was very easy to line it up properly. The stock front sight screw was set further forward in the slide making use of a socket on the screw to remove it impossible because there was zero room between the front edges of the screw/bolt and the front of the slide. The Truglo front sight has it's mounting bolt set back further towards the rear of the slide slot making use of a socket to tighten the bolt with my standard Craftsman 3/16" socket doable. Coat the cleaned bottom of the front sight with Loctite making sure you do not get any in the bolt hole and set the sight onto the slide. The Loctite on the sight will do a fine job of holding everything in place, the screw just needs to keep everything in place while the Loctite cures and moderate screw tension will keep the sight in place for years. If the rear sight goes in almost half way with moderate tapping with a punch you should be able to install the rear sight."
"Even my camera had a tough time focusing on the right thing, when the light source was behind it (which is when it would generally be easiest to pick up on the details in most objects)."
"I wouldn't say they are twice as bright, but they are significantly brighter than other Trijicon sights and Tru Dot sights that I have."
"Even if they sit in a dark safe, they are easy to line up day or night."
"When I got them I was expecting Freakin laser beams, but they are not that bright. I bought the Armorer tool that is sold on Amazon to take off the front site."
"Nice bright sight picture during the day, and nice visible sights in the dark."
"Will give durability results after I send 100-500 rounds down the barrel."
"You'll need a Glock front sight tool to install front sight."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"I was looking for a monocular that stows easily for day trips and canoeing. If you don't want to lug a full size set of binoculars, but still want to view wildlife, concerts, or mountain vistas, I think you will be happy with the Grip Scope. While on a cruise just for fun I help the Grip Scope up to my cell phone and took some shots. You are not going to get a perfect picture every time, balancing the cell phone and Roxant together, but what you can get with the Grip Scope is soooo cool."
"The optics seem to be high quality and the wide field of view makes the image less jumpy and brighter than the smaller 1/2 priced Roxant mini-scope. It's still useful for the indoor pistol range at 25 feet or checking on archery scores, but if you want it for shooting longer distances, just spring for the more expensive 30-60x scopes made for this purpose."
"From the reviews I read by other users, it holds its own in the field and I'm not worried about just tossing it in my pack and having it remain intact. I am trained to work with crews in an effort to control and fight wild fires as they occur across the country. Although I have not had the chance to use this scope in the field yet, I have high hopes for its helpfulness."
"I have used this while hiking and at my house as I live next to a field that has foxes, owls, rabbits and birds for my viewing pleasure. I find it easier to use than several of my binoculars and I have discovered that I like using one eye to view through a scope."
"After reading and watching several positive reviews on spotting scope websites and YouTube, I purchased this economical Roxant High Definition Grip Scope."

This is easily compensated for by bracing against a solid object or using the tripod (provided). All of my friends, a pretty loathsome lot to begin with, have to be frisked before they leave the after being within arm's reach of the Polaris. It would be easy to say I need new friends, but this product would tempt anybody to lust after it."

Update: 1/28/2017: I returned number 2 and received a 3rd sight. I'm upping the rating to 3 stars because the variance between sight number 2 and sight number 3, plus the problem with #1 mentioned above."
"And at those times you can see the red dot but not the iron sights without having the rifle in a lighted area...rifle in a lighted area and red dot target area in the dark."
"Fits the barrel perfectly, easy to use, great illumination with a 3 MOA dot on a wall at 25m at night."
"I was able to get the sights lined up pretty close with the Bushnell, but this helped me dial it in even further."

"Perhaps better to get a size a hair to small, then fit it, than to get a size too big and have it fall off in the field."
"I was going to epoxy it on so it would stay in place, but after dermeling and sanding it down to the hinge, it stays in place just fine when I flip it open."
"I ordered first one two small."
"A good tip is when yo open them they can make a slapping sound, if you put a piece of foam where the cover hits when it flies open it will quiet them down a lot."
"I ordered a Lucid Red Dot, and through the reviews realized scope covers were not included."

"Pros: Seems lighter weight than other mounts (probably because it has less material as a split mount)."
"I had to mount them raked to the rear and further up to get the correct eye relief for me when the stock slide was back to full extension. Others have said in their reviews that they had issues with rail mounts on the same S&W M&P but a proper rail mount should be very snug and the manual points out one for front and one for rear, not either or and since mine slid from the back rail to the first of the barrel This might be the issue especially when you consider I reverse mounted mine with no issues after trying the other ways. I feel good rail mounts should not require loctite especially Mil Spec.."
"Waiting on scope delivery so will update if there are issues but not expecting any."
"Most picatinny compatible accessories I am familiar with have a loose piece on one side of the rail and a stiff mounted side with a screw that tightens to make it work like a clamp. I was using these on a 10/22 rail (have to buy a picatinny compatible rail, they won't work on a weaver), and I had to use a rubber mallet to whack them into place. If these are supposed to be for an AR, they won't work on a Knight's RAS II because of the little hump that rail system has."
"The Title of the item states "Nikon P-Series Riflescope Picatinny Mount for 1 Inch Tube" and one of its features states "...access for virtually any rifle.""
