Pros & Cons
Pros
Love this lowcost red dot. Easy on/off and easily sighted in. I have astigmatism, so always have a bit of a blurry/misshapen dot with any red dot, but this isn't any worse than any other for me.
I have this installed on a bullpup style shotgun with the raised mount and flip up backup iron sights. I keep a spare battery in a compartment in the foregrip on each of my guns, so i'm prepared should the battery die while in the field. For the money... Read More
For as cheap as it was actually performed well. For $40 you won’t be disappointed. Simmons is a great company and they have great deals!

Highlights
Quality
First it is well made clear glass and has a secure mount
Great optic i have had great luck with ct products
Turns off after 30 minutes i guess for battery conservation
It has held zero for over 150 rounds i did use blue loctite to make sure the screws did not go anywhere
Price
For the price point i’m happy so far
All i could ask for in this price range
I used to buy them for 35 dollars on amazon
Good value for closed emitter but if you want something brighter for outdoors might wanna look elsewhere
Shipping
I installed it the day it came in and zeroed it the next morning before a match at about 20
Packaging/appearance
Was almost zeroed right from the box
Packaged well but only problem with my package was the box has a rip in the topwhich didnt affect anything
My only complaint was cap for the windage arrived cracked had to be from shipping so my windage adjuster doesn’t have a cap now... Read More
Competitiveness
This is the only red dot i have used so i cannot compare it to others
I am comparing this with a vortex sparcii and it holds up quite well
Only 2 dings i have and i am not concerned about them for my purpose a lens cleaning cloth is crap get a better one b 4 moa i... Read More
I tried a truglo and another reflective sight prior
