Clear glass. cqb reticle. multiple illuminations. sturdy. - Burris AR-536 Prism 5x 36mm Tactical Red Dot Sight, Ballistic CQ Reticle

This is a solid and clear optic. it has 11 illumination settings. 5 green and 5 red with a black reticle when off or batteries are dead. It has tethers for the W/E adjustment caps (a nice bonus) and picatinny rails at 3, 12 and 9'O-clock. The focus-ring is awesome and allows me to shoot with or without my glasses and dials in targets crisp when moving from 100-300 yard targets. I have a Burris Fastfire III mounted on the top rail and a small laser mounted on the 9'o-clock position. Wow! It comes with a sunshield and both front and back lens caps. Sturdy as can be but with that, also a bit heavy for those counting ounces. As many others have commented, the eye relief could be better but all I need to do is adjust my stock a bit and... good to go. No big deal on a proper AR setup with an adjustable stock. One of the main reasons I went with this, aside from looking for a fixed-5X optic, is the warranty. No receipt, no question asked forever warranty. So for those complaining that the reticle is canted, send it in and have them replace it! Duh! Another possible con that I hear about, and agree with a bit but have since adjusted, is that the center dot of the reticle is a bit large and covers most small targets at 100 yards but... there are other elements of the CQB reticle that allow you to compensate. The CQB reticle is RIGHT-ON, at least for me. Pinging steel using consistently at 300 yards using the provided reticle. this is also great for those of us with astigmatism. The etched reticle does not distort like a red-dot. Also, don't buy a fixed-5X optic and then complain that there's no zoom adjustments.!.
