   Clear optic. For the price, great deal. Holds zero fine. Clicks not spongy
   Not the best. But what do you expect at this price. Bravo.

   Installed on a 300 BLK AR, works great, holds zero after a year of use. Only problem is one of the flip caps broke…

   Needed something EXACTLY like this for a high powered airgun that I use for pest control, hence the MX1 reticle instead of the BDC one. As you can see, it’s VERY clear glass, very sharp reticle illumination with no bloom. It’s actually an improvement over the UTG Bugbuster scopes that most of us airgunners normally use, IMHO. And it’s almost $80-$100 cheaper.

   I have three lpvo i have ordered from MONSTRUM TACTICAL they are the BANSHEE 2X10X30, the MONSTRUM LADON 1x6x24 and the MONSTRUN 1x4x20 with range finder they are all mounted on a 556 rifle. All three of these LPVO’S are a high quality made and at good prices. The are easy to zero and have held their zero very well. I would not hesitate to buy a nother one in the future. These LPVOS are well worth the money.

   Excellent MPVO for the price. I use it for airsoft so it’s not experiencing any recoil. But, it’s a very clear image and really great for what I bought it for.

   Its pretty good for 100 bucks. Clear and I like the MX1 reticle. The illumination is also very nice.
   But, there is things I dont like. At max zoom, the eyebox becomes very narrow and unforgiving. Its not as bad as some other cheap scopes I have and its totally usable. I also wish it was it was a little bit lighter, but that might be a nitpick.

   Monstrum is now my go-to optics brand! By now, I have extensive experience with this optics brand, so I did not hesitate while ordering this product, and I wasn’t disappointed! I am super impressed with this scope. The reticle closely resembles Trijicon’s BDC Segmented Circle reticle designed for use with 55gr .223 ammunition. This reticle is specifically designed for the quick target acquisition in short and medium ranges but completely useless for long range shooting IMHO. It’s a high quality, very well purpose-built scope that will serve you well. Magnification can be easily adjusted between 2x and 10x by turning the ring located on the eyepiece side and it has a small lever for easier adjustments. Focus adjustment is also available on the eyepiece end of the scope, which is great, I hate it when the scope does not have it (like Russian POSPs). Eye relief and magnification rings move smoothly, which tells a lot about the build quality of the scope. Windage and elevation turrets are large, so you can do adjustments with your fingers. There is no zero stop feature on this scope, it would be nice to have it but at 100 bucks price point I surely am not complaining. Turrets are covered by screw caps for protection, which is nice, but caps do not have “leashes”, so when they are removed for adjustment, it’s very easy to drop or misplace these caps. Now about optics. Lens clarity is superb, very crisp and clear and I did not notice any distortions even at 10x magnification. I love the magnification range from 2 to 10, it allows me to use it for close targets and for mid- to long- range targets! For a compact scope like this it’s awesome! The scope’s reticle is illuminated, and you have a choice of red or green colors. I normally do not even consider a scope that does not have illumination because it greatly limits its usability, especially in dusk and nighttime. Red is great for night, green is great for day, dusk, or dawn. The reticle is etched on the glass and is very sharp. Note that illumination only lights up the central ring, not the whole reticle. On top of it, the scope is nitrogen purged and fog proof, but I did not expect otherwise. The scope comes with single-piece out-front rings, which are surprisingly good. I noticed that cheaper scopes usually of low quality include rings that I always throw away or give away and buy a new set of quality rings that might cost you as much as the scope itself. But this time I probably will keep the rings and actually use them. Monstrum makes great stuff! Pro-tip. Because the scope’s reticle is fairly very simple and does not provide much elevation or windage adjustment guidance like Mil Dot, your best bet for zeroing it is to use a laser bore sighter. Just insert it into your barrel and zero your scope’s crosshair on its dot. Then on a range you can finish fine-tuning your aim at 10x magnification according to the manufacturer’s guidelines. This will save you tons of ammo. *** TL;DR *** Yes, I do recommend this scope to every gun enthusiast. It has ultimately crisp and clear optics, wide magnification ranges from 2x to 10x, which is perfect for close- and mid-range shooting. The reticle is a simple yet highly effective Trijicon style BDC Segmented Circle, which is perfect for quick target acquisition. All adjustments work smoothly, turrets are hidden under the cap, everything looks good. Plus, it has red and green illumination. What else do you need? For 100 bucks it is a deal you can’t beat, and it even comes with a solid single-piece scope mount. Definitely a 5-star product! +++ Pros +++ 1) Very well built, rock-solid construction. 2) Wide magnification range: 2x to 10x. 3) Simple and highly effective BDC reticle. 4) Easy windage and elevation comps. 5) Fast target acquisition at 2x. 6) Long-range shooting capable at 10x. 7) Has focus adjustment. 8) Comes with lens caps. 9) Reticle is illuminated (red/green). 10) Comes with a solid single-piece mount. 11) Lifetime warranty!!! — Cons — 1) Turret caps have no “leashes”. 2) It’s SFP, I prefer FFP.

   When I came upon this bundle, I was looking for an offset scope mount to mount an old scope to a new rifle. The specs of the scope far exceeded my old scope. The added cost for the bundle as compared to just the mount was a no-brainer so I went with this combo. Everything fit well together and the mounting was easily accomplished. I like the fact that there was a battery already installed in the scope, but an extra battery was included. The instructions were well written and it even came with a wrench to secure the torx head screws (although I used my regular gun-smith tools for the attachment). The image through the scope was superb – very bright and clear. The lighted reticle was perfect with good incremental adjustments throughout the range between red and green. The appearance and construction of all the materials were of high quality. I will consider this brand for future projects.

   First off, sight picture, build quality, eye relief, and glass clarity are all great. My main gripe (and the reason this review takes a star off) is that mine (BDC 2-10x) only came with red illumination on the dot. Instead of having 5 levels red on one side and 5 levels green on the other, mine has 0 – 1 – 0 – 2 – 0 – 3 – 0 – 4 – 0 – 5 – 0, where the zeroes are no illumination and the numbers are various levels of red light intensity. Otherwise, seems to be a good scope for the price, build quality is much nicer than some other cheapies I’ve looked through. Just a bit bummed that I don’t have the option for a green illumination like this product advertises.
