   Bought for a friend, needs are desert plinking and SHFT HD. I had bought a Sig Sauer Tango MSR LPVO scope but the eye box sucked at any power level and the glass was dark compared to the Monstrum! Returned the Sig Sauer scope.
   Glass is clear and bright FOR THE MONEY. I cannot complain about those two specs. I see some comments where the scope is “unusable” above 6X magnification. They are correct to some extent. If you are moving while using at that mag, eye box is way too small. Stationary, bench shooting, using shooting sticks, using a boulder or tree as a shooting aid, 10x works fine, unforgiving but works fine
   Can’t really complain since they give you free mount, but it is so basic you will probably want to replace it. Not a commando, this mount should work for a good while. Make sure you use the right size wrenches when mounting the scope. The screws feel cheap. T15 star for the scope rings, not sure of the allen size for the mount itself. The box comes with both, but just a heads up.

   I have had this on my AR (5.56) for about 300 rounds and have not needed to make adjustments again. Keeps it’s aim true at least while firing these rounds.
   Optics are clear with the slightest haze when comparing to a Leupold, but chromatic aberration is great. Seems better quality than the Sig Tango optics that are 4X the price.
   It’s biggest weakness is probably how much light it pulls in. It is perfectly functional and operates better than I’d imagine for the price, but that is where paying for an optic really shows. My Leupold scope looks noticeablely brighter in shady or lower light levels.
   Build quality though is awesome, would highly recommend it.
   

3. Monstrum Banshee ED 1-10×24 LPVO – Great for the money! Verified Buyer – 9 March 2025

   Received the scope today and after removing it from the Amamzon shipping container it appears that the item was dropped at some point before it got inside the ngclab.com shipping container and finally received by me. After inspecting the item I found it to have some type of residue around the magnification dial (cleaned off without spotting or blemishing the coating). There are a few small blemishes with the coating on the scope body and scratched coating of the scope mount. Further inspection shows that the “zero” marks on both the windage and elevation are off by 1/4 MOA and that means something when dialing in the scope. I was really excited to be investing in and receiving this type of scope (LPVO) for the very first time but am very disappointed by what I received and how I received it. I purchased this new and had requested ngclab.com to replace the item without me having to go through the refund process, then wait for a refund to deposit, reorder and wait for it to be shipped and received (hopefully not in the same condition). These issues with the item are all controllable and should have been throughout the process prior to being shipped all the way to the end user. So at this point I’m really just going to send this item back without being able to check it’s functionality on the range. Unboxing was already an unsatisfactory experience. After watching the couple of reviews about this particular item and the product line, I was really excited and looking forward to this and that’s not the case now. 7/16/2023 Update I took a deep breathe and cancelled the return because my time is more valuable than going through this whole ordeal again. So here’s what I did. 1. Removed the residue with industrial cleaning wipes (for auto, home, projects & hands). 2. Covered/filled the scratches so that they can’t be easily seen (will paint the entire weapon, so I’m letting that issue marinate). 3. Mounted and leveled the scope onto the weapon. 4. Took the weapon to the range and zeroed initially at 50 yards then moved to 100 yards for final zeroing. The zeroing was easy and went very well. The glass is remarkably clear and I must say that the scope was incredibly easy sighting in! So outside the preliminary issues, I am satisfied with keeping the scope because Monstrum has a pretty good warranty plan which helps take the sting away. The functionality of the scope is awesome and I would recommend this scope to any gun enthusiast. Just be careful of the shipping process because someone dropped the item before it was packaged in the ngclab.com box to finally ship to me. Because I cannot prove who did it prior to me receiving the item…….I wanted to see (outside the cosmetic quality) how the scope would perform and I wasn’t disappointed but very pleased!

   Excellent glass in an inexpensive 1-10 power scope, and I really like the reticle configuration.
   Only issue I found was; when sighting in, on my AR, seems closer to 1 moa per click than .5, but works well for my application.

   I’ve got some higher quality scopes like Vortex Vipers and others in the same price category ($700-$1000). This will not be as good as those. But do you really need a scope as good as those for normal use? No. The main difference is glass clarity and eye relief. Both of which isn’t a huge issue for me because I’ve got better than 20/20 vision anyways and my eye relief when aiming is always consistent. The main draw of extremely high end optics is how durable they are. This scope is plenty durable for any civilian and could be used in a SHTF situation with relative confidence. For the money it’s great and if you want to get in on LPVOs for cheap, this is a solid choice. 1-10 is hard to find at this value. The 1x is very close if not a true 1x. Illumination IS NOT daylight bright but would work well for low light situations. Lifetime warranty should give you some peace of mind as well.
