Q
Scott, member, from NC, United States, asked on January 15, 2020

Does this unit have auto on-off capabilities...?

Manufacturer Answer
A
Answered by Bushnell, Manufacturer from KS, United States, on May 28, 2020

The First Strike scope has an integrated photocell, which automatically activates the unit when the protective lens cover is removed, so there is no power switch. When you are finished using the scope, simply replace the cover to turn the power off again. Brightness of the 5 moa red dot is also automatically regulated by the photocell, based on the level of ambient light.

Will this stand up to the recoil of a magnum springer air rifle?

Yes, this should work fine. Red dot sights are not as delicate internally as rifle scopes.

How does one change the battery

Expert Answer
A
Answered by Tiffany S., Gear Expert, from IL, United States, on July 03, 2019

According to Bushnell, to install a new battery, use the provided small hex wrench to loosen the two bolts on the top panel. Remove the top section of the sight and insert the battery “+” side up. Align and replace the top section and tighten the bolts.
