Very nice. - Aimpoint CompM4 Red Dot Sight (No Mount)

There is no denying this red dot is expensive, but I believe you 'usually' get what you pay for. The M4 Red Dot is one of the most well made high quality optics I have seen. I have a Leupold scope on my .270 that I bought used and it's as solid as the day it was manufactured - very well made. I also have a Nikon Monarch on my .460 revolver that takes a great deal of punishment from that round and is still a solid performer. There is no question the M4 is built as well or better, but also made to take a real beating. My Nikons and Leupold have been banged around while hunting, it happens, but the M4 would easily outlast any scope I have. When you get one of these in your hand you will see the quality. There may be less expensive red dots out there, but consider the service you get from AimPoint, if you should ever need it, and this is hard to beat. The AimPoint Pro is a nice red dot too, but the AA battery is easier to find and I don't have to buy another battery type.

I did return this 'kit', which has the Gerber Multi-tool included, not because there was anything wrong with the tool, but I really didn't need one (I have one I bought years ago) and I wanted the mounting hardware and filter. Also, throw the battery out that is included and go buy a lithium AA battery that can take the cold and the heat without leaking.
