I mounted this red dot on my AK47 on an improved rail. At the first shot the red dot disappeared and changing the battery did not sort the issue . Also the user manual is of poor quality
Would recommend: No

This optic looks like is built to be dropped and dragged but didnt get a 5 stars because of the reticles. They are a little too small for my liking maybe i need to get used to it. But after see them. I brought a 2X magnifier that screws into the back of it. That was another 45 bucks. Waiting for it to deliver because it was hard to find. Hopefully that make ir a little bit better

I often ask myself, why hasn’t anyone done this yet? ACOG style optic, battle ready ruggedness, and selectable reticle. It’s not that complex but Lucid gets it all together in one optic. I recommend this optic to anyone and it’s versatility requires you find room in your arsenal for this. Mine lives on my mid-range AR pistol 300 Black Out and 100 yard shots
Pros:
- rugged
- adjustable reticle
Would recommend: Yes

Sight is a little heavy and with other red dots coming down in price this optic needs some redesign. Good QR quality clear glass. The brightness auto adjustment works well. The optic is very rugged. Nice it uses a aaa battery.

I love my lucid optic hd7. I highly recommend this optic for the price along with all around performance. I currently have it on my ar pistol and couldn’t be more pleased with my purchase. If your looking for something similar to an acog but don’t have 1,200 dollars this is what I would suggest. There are a lot of similarities between the two.

My review of this sight is simple. If you are looking for a good budget friendly sight, you’ve found one. This company might not have the biggest following, but it seems legit. The sight itself resembles the size and shape of a Trijicon ACOG, but that’s about it as far as the similarities go. There is no magnification. And it uses batteries instead of fiber optics to display the reticle. A plus for the lucid is that you have the option of 4 different reticle shapes. Personally I have found that the circle-dot works best for me. I have noticed some reviewers saying the reticle seems a little blurry, but I have found that the only time it seems too blurry is when the brightness level is set to its brightest setting and you are in a dimly-lit environment. Which brings me to one of the best features about this sight, the Auto-brightness adjust. When you first turn it on, it is already set to automatically adjust your brightness level to the ambient light in your immediate surrounding. This took me by surprise because I thought it would take a couple seconds to adjust the brightness, but it happens instantaneously. It is every bit as smooth of a brightness transition as the ACOG. With that being said, if you do go outside and the sun is beaming straight into it, it will go to that brightest level, and the reticle may look a little fuzzy. But really that is the only bad side to this sight. I have it mounted on a “budget-build” .300 blackout with about 100rds through it ...

Very durable rubberized coating well built. Bought the FDE color matched almost perfectly with Magpuls FDE. Mounts are very sturdy but the only thing that I did not like was the reticle. It appeared to be fuzzy so I asked the entire household to look through the red dot to tell me their opinion. All said it was a blur to the dot and I agree. I just wanted to make sure it wasn’t just me. It’s to bad because I’ve been reading reviews before I purchased but wanted to give it a chance and see if this red dot would work out. Afraid it didn’t, I liked the look of it and the build but just went with the Holosun red dots. If they can improve this product I would give it another shot.
Pros:
- well built
- AAA battery powered
- rubberized coating
- Fde matches magpul
Would recommend: No

Best red dot I’ve ever owned. Beats vortex hands down and is very economical. The multi coated lense is crystal clear. I love that it takes a AAA battery instead of a super expensive alternative. Easy to use and easy to sight in. When changing reticles (it has three options) it holds its zero. It was a little on the heavy side and sat a little high for my preference.
Pros:
- economical, sturdy, crystal clear
Cons:
- Little heave and sits a little high
Best Used for:
- Home Defense, Target Practice and Hunting
Would recommend: Yes

Purchased one of these units and it was defective out of the box. Contacted Lucid who tried to pin it on an astigmatism. Contacted Opti Planets great customer service and sent the unit back for a store credit.Replaced this unit with another vastly superior product.
Would recommend: No
