I ordered a zoom dot a few weeks ago for 269.00. It was American made and I just wanted to try one out. It came in the mail and fired it up and saw what looked like a black mark on the bottom half of the dot. I could only see it at its largest setting. I called Millett and they said send it back so I'm still waiting.
I played around with it for the afternoon before I mailed it back. The zoom dot comes with a nice mount, but it is too low to to cowitness with a flat top AR. I looked from in the house to outside in the bright sun and from outside in the sun to inside. The dot seemed about as bright as a Trijicon reflex sight I've use before. It seemed to work better inside than out. I liked the idea of the ability to adjust the dot size. That was my main reason for ordering one. It seems very simple. It's just the tube with a big knob that holds the battery and the electronics.
I tried to take some pictures of the dot but my camera seemed to make everything brighter than it really was. It sucks that I got a dud but I guess that happens sometimes with mail order stuff. Millett said they would repair or replace it without question. I'll post some pictures when ever I get it back. David
