Got this for my AR-15 or AR-10, assuming that it would be used at less than 100 yd. Sighting in at 50 yards and only using on one AR-15, I can see the parallax was pretty bad. In order to be accurate your eye has to keep the dot in the center of the lens, I know the specs from the manufacturer show Parallax at 25 but at 50 you will be off Target by 4" or more if there is any off-center movement viewing through the lens. The dot adjustments do work well and hold. Laser adjustments also however laser is only good for 25 yds or less in daylight, but that was to be expected. The adjustment cover caps will affect the adjustment if they are put on too tight. They are not deep enough. It is a nice compact unit, replacing the mounting nut with an M5 stainless lock nut or wing nut saves a lot of space and weight. Battery is easy to install, make sure it is installed the right way though, it's opposite of what you might intuitively think. Red and Green Dot is easy to switch, intensities are easy to adjust, at night there is some dot glare within the optic but in daylight cannot be seen. Overall this is a nice unit, lens caps open easily and can be rotated in any position or removed easily. My only major complaint is with the Parallax issue which causes inaccuracy even at 50 yards. For Close Quarters I think this unit would be fine and will be what I use it for.
