Great optic. For those that complain about the mount flopping around, it’s 100% your fault as you clearly can’t use a quick detach system. If it’s loose then simply tighten the screw/bolt on the opposite side of the lever a little at a time till the lever closes and it’s snug, not super tight, nor loose either and you’ll have zero issues with it being loose or falling off since it has a built in safety so the lever can’t come loose on its own so requires zero loctite either. Sort of heavy but does have a thick layer of rubber fully covering the optics body which is great for bumps and dings. Clear lenses, mount flips nicely to either side you choose as it can be swung to either side of your lefty. Doesn’t have a button to push to swing to side, but does have solid detent on both out if the way or inline with red dot that holds it in place so it won’t just flop over if you tilt your gun. Sale price is worth the money, at full price I’d opt for a better optic for less like a Sig or Vortex. But great for the price, I got five!
Pros:
- Turns CQC gun into CQC and mid range
Cons:
- Little heavy, but not terrible.
Best Used for:
- Anything you need to see.
Would recommend: Yes

Don't believe the poor reviews, its probably a whoretex agent on a mission...This unit is decent... even good quality for the cost. And it's compact to boot, however not soo light weight due to being a prism and packed tight with glass. No wiggles in the diopter ring is a big plus. Decent glass...just short of good glass but sufficient and usable. You can also peel the thick rubber-ish coating off and make it even more compact and a tad lighter too. Good to go Magnifier all in all. Heck, I got 4 of em...
Pros:
- compact
- Decent Glass, No slop in Diopter ring
- cheap but good
Cons:
- not many cons...its OK for the cost
Best Used for:
- Peeps looking for a good deal
Would recommend: Yes

I got this to go with my Black Spider M0129 red dot. Fits well. Glass is clear. I got it to help me decide if I wanted to go with a red dot magnifier or an lpvo, without committing to spending the extra $$ on a Vortex brand magnifier.
I dont have any "cons" to it really, besides obviously a higher teir quality product would probably be better, just like anything else.
Works as advertised, but I also have only been able to use it at an indoor range so far, so do with that what you will.
Pros:
- Easy to install
- Affordable
- Solid feeling construction
Cons:
- eye relief isn't great, but acceptable for the price.
Best Used for:
- Budget/first rifles
- put it on a "beater" rifle? seems durable, but if you break it you aren't out $400
- Good entry level optic
Would recommend: Yes

I haven’t tried that many magnifiers in the past but this one is awesome. QD mount works perfectly if you know how to use one, and will adjust to fit weaver or 1913. The flip to side locks nicely in both positions and with the included riser it should marry up to whatever red dot you run now. I used this behind two different X Vision Red dots with great success. Clear glass, nice eye relief.
Pros:
- clear glass
- nice eye relief
Would recommend: Yes

This thing sucks. The mount doesnt securely fasten to any rail without flopping around. You can adjust the swing tension on the optic itself with a set screw on the bottom, but that does nothing if the whole thing is flippin and floppin all over the place. Even on sale or clearance i wouldnt sell this pos to my worst enemy for $100. Dont cheap out, get something thats worth having.
Would recommend: No
