The scope is well build and robust. Reticle has a center dot which lights up when the illumination is turned on. But, it is not a true 1x at the lowest setting, more like a 1.2~1.3x, you can't set it to 1x and use it like a reddot (both eyes open) for fast target engagement. It is kind of deceiving to spec it as a 1-4x scope.
Pros: cool reticle, well build, robust
Cons: not a true 1x magnification to allow both eyes open during shooting
