   I have this Cyborg and also the Marksman. Right out of the box this Cyborg hit bullseye at 50 yards. Has stayed sighted in for multiple range trips. 100 yards the reticle isnt as precise as its a bigger chevron type. I like the Cyborg over the Marksman, Cyborg has a little bigger field of view if anyone was debating between the 2. But the Marksman has a nice smaller dot reticle. Also being prism scopes you dont need a battery, the reticle is black and always there. Some people mistake these as “red dot” where you leave both eyes open and have the eye relief farther back, no… this is a scope and has about 3″ eye relief. Monstrum products are impressive, I have several scope mounts and they are not any different than some high dollar ones. Good stuff.

   I have this installed in my Kel-Tec Sub-2000. I had to make very few adjustments right out of the box. I Demand a shake awake feature in all my electronic optics so it was nice to see that this model has that feature. At 25 yards, (the farthest distance at the range I was using), I consistently saw a 1 inch pattern, with most shots going through the same hole. The only thing that I’d change if I could, is the height of the optic. As it sits, it’s situated just a little high for my sight line and it doesn’t like to fit in a scabbard.

   Heavier than I expected but not objectionably heavy. Feels substantial. Glass is crystal clear, love the red/green illumination and the BDC hash marks are spot on after sighting in. (5.56 16 inch bbl) Great eye relief, I get a full view approximately 3 inches off the scope and the 5X magnification makes anything out to 300 yards feel like I’m cheating. Edit. I’d love to see Monstrum do a couple different height mounts. This is a little too tall to co-witness on my Sionyx NV.

   Love this setup. 5x magnification and the glass is crystal clear with aid of diopter in rear to focus. Multiple levels of brightness at a touch with green or red, and still have clear optics without battery use. At its price point, you can’t fo wrong with this optic.

   Lot of reviews singing it’s praises, but I’m here to give you facts. It’s better than a red dot, but not better than a scope such as one that rhymes with rugduster (Can’t say name, violates standards, smh) I got this because prism scopes are supposed to have a wider FOV than a standard scope, it doesn’t. Glass is ok, but as you can see in my pics, the rugduster is clearer and has no spherical aberration (bluriness at edge). The Cyborg does. (Pics with mildot reticle is rugduster, upside down V with circle is Cyborg. You can see a golf ball by railroad track near reticle center with rugduster at 80 yards, can’t tell it’s a golf ball with Cyborg. Both scopes are clearer to your eye than my pics, but they give a good representation of which scope is clearer. This scope is still better than a red dot, just don’t expect it to be better than standard scope of equal cost. It’s also just as heavy as a standard scope. It does seem to be built extremely well, it’s heavy for it’s size so probably can take a beating. Also i didn’t see where it mentions it has both red or green illumination and it lights ONLY the center V and circle, very crisply! Rugduster has AO (Adjustable Objective) so you can set parallax. Cyborg doesn’t, but it’s not that bad 30 yards and out, perfect 100 and out. Less parallax error than any red dot, period, It’s tall, probably perfect for you AR guys who’s buttstock is inline with receiver. Us normies with a classic gun, our woodstock is an inch or so below receiver height. So you can only use it with an adjustable cheek piece. My instructions said you can flip mount upside down to make it lower….well that’s not true, turns out instructions that came with mine are for the Monstrum Ruckus, not this Cyborg…ugh. Again, better than a red dot, has 5x magnification, versus plain old 1x, it’ll never leave you stranded due to a dead battery, worst case your reticle is black instead of preferred red/green reticle center. So if you’re considering this or a red dot, I’d get this.
