My apologies if this has been reviewed before, the search function and Google didn't pull up much specific information .

Does anyone have experience with this optic? Are they worth a damn for casual use, out to 500 yards? My aimpoints are the only optics that see use for serious purposes.

Looks, nice but I have to wonder about the glass quality and repeatability of the turrets for that price.

I just saw one in Cabela's today, and it's got me curious about the optic as well. If it's of decent quality, it might make a decent replacement for the Mepro on my SCAR 16S.

I thought they were not illuminated?

I don't believe this one is illuminated, quino.

Maybe I'll be a guinea pig on this one.

If you do.... please send us the review. I had seen those before and always wondered. I hope it works out

I was ready buy this for hunting until I realized there is no indication that the scope is waterproof/fog proof. :confused:

I have no more knowledge of this important fact than you do, but this is the second website indicating that this scope (and entire line) is fogproof / waterproof.

I have had the 1-4 illuminated in a adm mount on one of my rifles, about 700 rounds in 6 months, with no issues. The optic is not as clear as i would like. However for the money, and how little i use the ar it is mounted on, it isn't bad. I tend to favor rds, so i don't use the scope very seriously, i bought it to see if it was something i would like enough to upgrade to a better optic.
