Good Points: This is an economy scope that delivers even while taking a beating. I have a 3-12X BSA AR scope on a Chinese BAM B-21 which is about the hardest recoiling springer out there. So far, it has withstood about 1200 shots without a shift in the zero. It is bright and accurately dials in the right distance for sharpest focus - at least at 10 yds. I have another BSA Scope, a 2-7X AR scope that I have on a Beeman S1, a fairly tame .177 cal springer that has had many thousands of pellets fired through it over many years and where you put the cross hairs is where the Beeman Silverbear is going to go (@ 750 fps at the muzzle). I've had to adjust the windage and elevation knobs on the S1 only once in many years and that was after a disassemble and cleaning. Tonight I am looking for another BSA AR scope to go on my next purchase (to go on a BAM QB-78 in .22 cal) - that's how I got here and decided to throw in my 2 cents. Good products should be lauded.
Bad Points: The click adjustments are not precise; I wouldn't use the windage and elevation knobs to compensate for wind or range on a target (4 clicks won't necessarily move the round strike an inch), rather I would compensate with a bit o' Kentucky windage, which isn't usually much within the effective range of my guns. Once the scope is zeroed for your preferred distance however, the zero holds just fine.
General comments: BSA Air Rifle scopes 2-9x32 / 3-12x44 - If you are on a budget and need a scope, I think you can expect a good product from BSA that will get the job done. I am very confident shooting my Beeman S1, the pellet goes precisely where I want it. I haven't decided on a preferred pellet for the XS-B21, so I am still making adjustments with that one. The recoil on the B-21 is very strong, requiring a one pc scope base with really torqued mounting bolts. Even the front sight has to be torqued as tight as is humanly possible or it will end up sliding off its base. I realize 1200+ shots really doesnt seem like much, but on this shooter it is. So far it is performing perfectly. If it breaks I will post how many shots it took to do her in.
In my experience, BSA is good value for the money.

I own two 2-9x32 and one 3-12x44 air rifle scopes and they are both really nice, crisp clear glare free, the cross hairs are easy to see and dont get all blury like cheap scopes, These are nitrogen filled, waterproof, shock proof, and fog proof. they also have adjustable objectives. Windage and elevation adjustments are easily made by hand, comes with protective storage covers.
These are a must for spring magnum air rifles due to their shock a recoil. regular gun scopes and pneumatic air rifl ...
