A PROPER REVIEW - this is a magnifier
This is a MAGNIFIER! Do not expect a reticle (cross hairs, etc.) it's sole purpose is to be used in conjunction with a red dot or holoscope clone.Now that's clarified for the previous reviewer let us proceed.Ordered this 2nd May Arrived 8th May, well packaged for the trip so no probs there.The optics are clear (minimal distortion due to being focused at infinity with no focus adjustment), with minimal loss of light transmission, something that can affect cheaper scopes.The reason the focus is set at infinity, is because you shouldn't need it for close up work, if you do, go to an optician as you desperately need glasses.The mounting felt a little "gritty" in operation when moving it to the side, however a quick clean and lube sorted this out.When placed onto a standard picattiny rail and tightened properly the base of the mount had no wobble, due to the flip to the Side nature there is the tiniest amount of movement when it is in the line of sight, but that has to be expected, and it is actually pleasantly surprising there isn't more (you can just feel it if you hold the rifle up and swing it by the magnifier - not advisable).Although new to airsoft I've shot real steel sighted rifles for 30+ years! and have spent 5 times as much on inferior scopes in the past.Whilst not the most mind blowing optic I have come across in terms of magnification, clarity, etcetera, pound for pound this is probably one of the best I've found.Worth the money - yes.Does it do the job it's designed for - yes, but remember its a magnifier!Would I advise others to buy it - only on my team (hey gotta keep an edge ya know). ;)

OK But With Issues
I'm in two minds about this. I've given it three stars because I do like it and the optic quality isn't bad at all, but there are some issues:1. The windage and elevation screws are stiff and it can be a struggle getting them to move - in fact mine wewre so bad the screw split and I had to cut a notch into one of the screws.2. It comes in two parts - the bracket and the optic. The locking lever for the mag is very poor and doesn't lock very well at all - I've ended up putting some rubberised tape between the scope and lock in order to give it some purchase and keep it stable.3. When you flip it to the side and then back, it twists out of alignment so the recticle from my holo sight ends up skewed and I have to slightly twist the mag to align it again.4. IThere's a certain amount of ghosting you get with the holo recticle.But it is pretty solid and with a bit of tape and some patience it is a good addition to my sight with the additional magnification. I have to say that I'm not sure whether I'd opt for a cheaper one like this or spend more....without a more expensive unit to compare it to I can't really say. And after all that I did actually enjoy using it (and used it alot) when I used it in a game.

Would not recommend
While is did come quick it is very loose resulting in an offset sight picture and will not hold a position without tweaks. Would not recommend

It's a pretty good scope pretty sturdy plus the scope can be detached and reattached pretty easily the only problem with it is it's eye clearance need too see a clear image is terrible you need to be 3 inches away from the scope Ireland itself to see but apart from that it's ok

Brilliant worth the buy!!!!
If you're looking to buy a good sight for your weapon this is definitely worth it! Best weapon attachment I've ever bought.

Good product but wouldn't buy again
A good product which arrived quickly from China. My only issue with this is that when in use the magnifier is pretty shakey and off center due to gaps at the connectors.

A solid choice.
Flip to the side mount required a little re-engineering to get it to line up with my 552 correctly but the scope itself was well built and for the price it seems a fairly good clone.
