Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Glass is great and so is the red/green reticule. Good clarity/magnification. Glass is reasonably clear, but the world through it is a tad dimmer.

This is a great budget magnifier. It fits perfectly over my rear sight. It has a forgiving eyebox.

Eye relief is the only real drawback to this. It's functionally a bit better in the sense the tube is longer. The eye relief is ok, it works well for my setup.

The lockup on the rail is great, the flip is solid and positively locking. The mount is sturdy with a very resolute flip motion. I love the way it attaches to my rail and if i want it out of the way i can flip it to the side with one hand.

The magnifier enables very accurate placement of shots at 100 yards and up. If you are shooting up to 100 yards, it is a nice combination with a red dot. It gives you the option to flip the magnification to the side, if shooting at shorter distances.

Cons

Reticle shift is horrible, mount is trash. Pure trash. The unit points slightly to the left causing a strange affect.

Quality

I’m sure this magnifier will serve me well it has the quality and reputation to prove it will perform

Sturdy mount with a very good flip out

The knobs tighten after less than one turn clockwise from factory and counterclockwise backs them out quickly

My complaints are the centering knobs dont really do anything read update below and that its made in china

Price

Nice for price perfect for non special ops folks

Great optics for the price and in combination with the vortex optics crossfire red dot sight gen ii 2 moa dot

If you need a good 3x magnifier get this and be happy you did its a good choice for the money

Sure there are products out there but it comes with a cost

Shipping

Product was received within 3 days of purchase

Competitiveness

After buying a legitimate eotech exps3 from the same seller i bought this magnifier to match it up

As good as the trigacon and one fifty cheaper

I havent handled any magnifiers from eotech or any other highend manufacturer yet but i can imagine that this at least competes... Read More

However i trust vortex more than holosun and feel like this is a quality optic for the price
