Reviews & Ratings for NcStar Mark III 4x32 Tactical Compact Matte Black Rifle Scope — 21 reviews — Page 1

Don't like it at all, all ready ordered a new one, this was my second one. The first one is on my M4, and works great, that's way I ordered a 2nd one for my M15, but this one no thank you.
Pros: Easy to mount
Cons: Very hard to sight in, hard to adjust

Very nice scope for the price point. I especially like the locking mechanism. Works as advertised.

For the price, this sight is well made. The reticle is clear and bright. Just what this casual target shooter needed.
Pros: Quick attachment
Cons: A little heavy

nice fo rthe price

Given the price you get a lot of scope for the money. I have mine rail mounted and it is quick and secure, returns to zero everytime so far. Reticle is crisp and clear, however when lit it is a little fuzzy but how important is that to the average person? Not like I am going out on some night time operations, if you're a Rambo type and need a scope with nightime capability step up a couple grand
Pros: Holds zero, adjustments are crisp and consistent
Cons: reticle when lit is a little fuzzy at any level

Small, lightweight, easy to install & remove to transport - scope shipped a in padded cardboard box. Optics are pretty good right to the edges; bright and clear even in dim light. The sniper reticle has hatch marks on the vertical/horizontal crosshairs. Once you sight in at 100 yds, it's easy to determine 50, 75 yds by using the marks on the vertical axis; can't speak to the 200 to 400 yd turrent adjustment, my range is only 100 yds deep. Even in dim light no need to use the illuminated crosshairs. Honestly, for the money you can't ask for a better scope: it performs well for my puposes, plinking and punching holes in paper targets. With a properly tuned reload in my .223 I'm able to shoot an 1 1/2" pattern,off the bench, at 75 yds. Can't speak to long term durability, but .233's aren't too hard on scopes - probably last forever on a .22 (?)
Pros: Lightweight, compact, low profile, quik mount, finish matches AR, inexpensive
Cons: none encountered

Well I had high hopes for this scope and it has so many good things going for it. Many features I love like size, design, mount, sniper reticle. But I just can't seem to keep this scope zeroed over a period of time. Don't know how many times I have sighted this gun/scope combo in to zero and after some travel time or carring the gun for awhile it goes off zero and I have to sight the gun in all over again. Customer was great in sending my a lost elevation cover cap and I haven't contacted them again on my problem but my review is on the product as it came out of the box.
Pros: Many good things going for this scope
Cons: Won't hold zero

Still not sure what is going on with this scope and its inability to hold zero. Can zero it at the range but after packing it out to shoot gophers it will usually be off zero. Seems sometimes off high or low and sometimes left and right. I have checked the mounts and it is tight and the rifle it is on ( S&W MP 15-22 ) is no tack driver but I could be happy just knowing where it is going to shoot each time I take it out. I feel it is something in the scope adjustments as the other it was shooting right so I moved the windage know left and it just kept shooting farther right. Started adjusting the right and it started shooting left. Go figure.

As stated by others the illuminated recticle is too bright with no adjustment difference as far as I can tell.

This a great looking scope, perfect size and fit for my 15-22. nice cam mounting mount ( but I have never taken it off the rifle since first mounted ) and the price is right so not sure what I am going to end up doing with this scope.
Pros: Perfect size for AR flat top
Cons: Can't seem to keep zeroed

I took a chance on this scope for the price, everyone always says to buy an expensive scope. I know that the more expensive scopes are much better than this one, but it is a great scope for what it costs.

I wanted a shorter more tactical scope than most for my M4. There are not too many options when you want small. It is really an ACOG or one of these. This scope is awesome for the price. The glass is clear, and it holds zero very well. The mount can be tricky at first, but follow the directions and it works great.
The illumination is too bright, but i dont care very much since I wont use it.

Take a chance and try it out, great buy for the price.
Pros: inexpensive, clear glass, compact size
Cons: illumination is too bright

It's a good little scope for the money. Would have liked it to magnify at least a couple times. I has the knob to adjust it just doesn't. I do like the size and will in time buy one of the higher power models. This was more of a purchase for cheap to see if it was worth buying a more expensive model. So all in all not a bad little scope but I'd buy the 3-9x42.
Pros: Small
Cons: Doesn't magnify
