Bnut's Review of NcSTAR Ultimate Sighting System Gen II 3-9x42mm Rifle Scope w/ 1x Micro Red Dot Sight

So far so good! Finally had a chance to get to the range and zero this optic. Started with the red dot at 25. Easy to adjust and seemed to hold. Moved to the magnified optic portion and made sure I was on paper at 25yds with 5x magnification. Then went out to 100 and had it dialed no problem at 9x. Used the BDC turret to adjust to 200yds and it seemed to be fine! That BDC adjustment feature is pretty dope. No messing around with holdovers or thinking too much. Just estimate the distance, turn to the nearest setting and yeet yeet! Also has handy instructions for quickly estimating target distance using sniper reticle. A little heady,but you just need to memorize the included chart. Back to 100 to confirm zero held, which it did. Then back to 25 with the dot to confirm zero. All good. Spent 60 rounds of 5.56 and it seemed to hold my adjustments just fine. Love the etched reticle on the magnified optic, probably won't use the illuminated settings unless I'm plinkin' til dusk. Seems to be a good value for the money and really adds to my budget AR. Mounts to top rail with enough clearance to keep rear BUS in place, making the quick release mount actually useful. Looks pretty slick so that's a plus as well. Comes with extra batteries for each optic, but if you are like me you could skip the battery in the magnified optic and have three backups for the dot. Do be careful when removing dot to add/change battery as wiring and switch for dot are not hardened i.e., you could pinch a wire easily. 5 stars with the understanding that this is a budget combo optic at an insane price. I think the etched reticle 3-9 is worth it even if the dot craps out. I'm thinking about adding some epoxy to harden the wiring and make it a little tougher when I need to change the battery next time around. Also if you ask nicely optics planet will hook it up with the swag. 5 stars!
