Millet DMS-1 1-4x24 scope ?

[USMC]

I just got mine in tonight. I plan on testing it out this weekend. From what I can see now, it looks solid. The glass is also pretty clear. It is real close to a true 1X but there is a real slight magnification.

Here's a pic.

I have a few questions about the DMS-1 that Millett can not answer at this time. I called them and could not get any answers. If anyone can help I would greatly appreciate it. I would like to know the field of view, the circle size of the reticle and the estimated battery life. Thanks in advance.

Anyone else have any feedback from rangetime with this scope? It looks pretty good for the money, just curious for more end user feedback since they seem to have just recently came out with this scope.

Thanks

While we're on the topic of Millet, anybody tried those Grabber rings of theirs? Impressions?

I have one on the way from Midway at $230 that should be here tomorrow.

I sold my Millet TPS-1 which is the 4-16x with green lit mil dot reticle and side parallax that was mentioned above.

I sold it for more than I paid so I'm happy.

I happened to use a LT 30mm for it and will now be using it for the DMS-1.

This won't be overkill on a BCM 11.5 will it?

My friend just bought his first AR, an M&P 15T, and because of this thread, he ordered the DMS from Midway last week. He's got it mounted on his carbine and will be sighting it in shortly. BTW, Midway had two when he ordered his, they're all gone.

And he got the truly Chinese style with gold lettering, didn't he?

Midway will have two more in stock soon.

Unless that is one of mine and my buddies he got. We sent two back.

Hello Gentlemen

Following the thread with interest, as I am the guy that designed the DMS.

As to the questions this wk the manual will be up on the Millett web site.

You will find two models in the field, gen 1 and Gen 2, the easy way to tell them is the Gen 1 has the illumination control on the top rear of the scope where as the 2 nd gen has the control on the left side of the turret. optics are the same.

We are getting the scopes in every wk but they are sold out just as fast as they get here. We will not increase production till we can keep the same level of quality. Each Millett scope is computer tested before shipment. The testing puts the scope under equal recoil of a 3006 machine gun. Order one and you will get it before too long.

Thanks for your interest and support

Steve
