### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Nicely made, inexpensive red dot...
  

*by J***R on Reviewed in the United States on August 18, 2023*

Bought this for my son's Ruger 10/22 for SASP when the Vortex Venom I had failed during practice. Durable, light, maintains zero. Bought a 2nd one for my son's Ruger PCC and same experience. Prefer it to the Vortex Spark and other similar optics at same price-point.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Free batteries for life...
  

*by S***Z on Reviewed in the United States on November 27, 2019*

This red dot made me sell my Trijcon MRO. It's got  a crisp red dot and clear glass. The emitter doesn't ghost and it's held up to usage on a PCC, which has a good deal of recoil, since it's a gas blowback design. The reviewer who claims it didn't stand up to 300 blackout seems like a liar. These things are solid. Crimson trace also gives away free batteries for life when you register your red dot on their website.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Quality for the money
  

*by E***R on Reviewed in the United States on February 8, 2024*

Crimson trace has always made good products. The sight is of good quality and I only return it because I no longer needed it.
