Good Points: Due the the unique design and reflective mirrors of this gun, the position of your head has minimal effect on accuracy. The power of the red dot is also adjustable, going from barely visible (for poorly lit rooms or nighttime shooting) to VERY bright, for use in areas with VERY high ambient light. The sight can adjust to VERY small increments, meaning you can control to within a TINY margin, were your pellets go. The battery that powers the sight has a very long life, and replacements can be found at any large electronics supplier. Sighting in this scope is also easy. since head position has little effect on the red dot's position, you get far fewer "false" sight readings. by consequence, this also means that this sight is dead-on accurate, regardless of user.
Bad Points: The sight cannot adjust for windage, so it is up to the shooter to make his or her best judgment as to where and how to aim the sight. The price of the sight is also an issue. Due to the very high cost of producing a high-quality sight such as this, the $60 price tag is regrettable, but expected. Because of the high price and quality of this sight, most stores don't have them in stock. you will have to go to a higher-end retailer or the internet to find one. But, again due to the high quality of this item, most places will grossly overcharge you for this sight. Lastly, this sight requires a very long sight rail to mount, longer than most manufacturers have on the gun to begin with. this means that you will often need to but a rail extension just to fit this thing on in the first place.
General comments: This sight is one of the highest quality sights I've ever laid my hands on. It is easy to adjust, sight in, and a real joy to shoot with. It is a worthwhile addition to any gun on the market, and you will soon find yourself shooting so well, that you can hit a soda can at 20+ yards every time. Even your average Joe will shoot like a marksman, in a matter of minutes after first trying this sight out.
