Reviews & Ratings for NcSTAR 4x30mm Illuminated Reticle Rifle Scope — 6 reviews — Page 1

This scope is very clear holds tight and zero with over 200 rds thru so far, eye relief is not as bad as others listed, every bit as good as my father in laws burris ar-332 for 250 bucks less! just wish the covers were flip up insted of removable but they are see thru but not as clear as without them, but overall a great product for the price
Pros: fit great into carry handle, holds tight
Cons: covers are removable not flip up

This set up is certainly the best for the money at $50 shipped, and may even be the best optic set for an A2 for uner $200 dollars or so. The mount is ROCK solid in the handle of my DMPS A2, and it didnt seem like it needed to be cranked down with anything harder than fingertip force to do so. In addition to being a good mounting system for this scope, I feel like it could definitely be used to mount other scopes of similar size. The iron sights are still completely usable through the hollow part of the mount which is a big plus. The scope seems to be of good overall quality, aside from the rheostat being kind of difficult to turn there are no real issues. The P4 reticle's hash marks are pretty useful for shooting at distance. The crosshairs are a bit wide, but I doubt anyone's buying this scope for 300+ yard tackdriving anyway. The IR is a nice feature for low light shooting and I've actually found myself using it a few times to good effect. Another big plus about this scope is how short it is. While its length limits eye relief, the plus side of this is that produces it a very bright picture, significantly brighter than the rest of my mounted optics. After mounting it, my rifle shot a 0.49 in. group at 105 yards with factory ammo, so overall I'd say this scope exceeded my expectations.
Pros: Price, simplicity, versatility, mount, and overall quality.
Cons: Limited eye relief

I received my scope in December '09 and mounted it on my DPMS AR 15. I zeroed the scope in early January and cannot be happier. The weapon is mounted in my patrol unit in a fixed rifle rack. In spite of some rough terrain in my patrol area the scope has held it's zero. I have deployed it a few times on duty and had it out several times to shoot. Through it all when I attended our agency in-service and qualification day no adjustments were needed. The zero was still solid at 100 yards and the scope was still mounted tightly on the weapon.

Depending on your rack, if used for patrol, and you are mounting on a fixed carry handle, like mine, some adjustment may be needed on your rack depending on the type; it does sit high. However, the fact it sits high on a fixed handle makes getting on the scope in a more heads up manner quite easy.

If you are looking for a good scope and you are on a budget this is the way to go. I highly recommend this product.
Pros: Optics and ease of use
Cons: none so far

Fit and adjusted very easy on AR-15 A2 style handle. Zero play!
Pros: nice snug fit on AR handle
Cons: none

Mount fit nice and tight to AR-15 A-2 type handle. Scope fit properly into mounts and bore sighted easy. Scope seems very clear. Will know more after range sight in----will report.
Pros: Fast service
Cons: None yet
