I searched and searched for reviews on this, and came across one where a police force decided to "recommend" this scope. Other than that review, I couldn't find anything either positive or negative, so decided I could always return it if I didn't like it. Well, this truly is a great scope. I had also purchased a "B-R-KA" 3-9x30mm, and I can honestly say the 1.5-5 Sightmark is equivalent to the 9 magnification from the other scope. Glass was very clear, reticle was easy to -0-, and the clicks for the windage/elevation really help so you don't have to take your eye from the scope to the adjustment. I've since returned the other brand scope, and ordered another SightMark for my gun - the 8-25x50mm is going on my AR15 .223, and this will go on my son's MP 15/22 (his eyes are better)....
Pros: Great Value, much clearer optics than "others" , click values and -0- hold with AR15 .223 recoil
Cons: nothing
