AIM Sports 2.5 - 10x40 mm Laser Scope


Exactly what I expected - I like it (and the laser does adjust....)
I had a chance to check this scope out at a gun show before i purchased it. Bought this one and of course got exactly what I expected. The Laser is definitely adjustable. The Hand-Jam method i dont suggest however. the way that i do it is by putting the allen wrench (that im pretty sure comes with it.....) into the holes that you can clearly see in the pictured item... and turning. One on the side. One on the top. You will have to decide at what distance that you want the laser to be exactly on target because of the fact that it mounted slightly left. Therefore, if you are looking at something really close, the laser dot will be more to the left of your crosshair. Likewise, while aiming at something further it will continue to go further to the right of the crosshair. No real sense in adjusting it every time because 90% of the reason it's there is to look cool - 8% for acquiring a target quickly/easily - and 2% cat toy. percentages may be off a bit, but I think that's pretty...
Good Compact Optic
I was nervous buying an optic sight unseen, however this one performed perfect. I sighted it in at 100yds at 10x. I was able to see where I was hitting with the .223. Turning to 2.5x you can see close range targets as close as 10ft clearly, but at that range the laser is a better option. The quick detatch mount held tight even after some rapid fire. I have tried the laser in different lighting conditions, and it really shines in low light and indoors. I would recommend this optic as a good tactical option, as it is compact and versatile.
Good Sight for the money.
Ok so I picked up this sight for my AR-15. First off it arrived very quickly no issues there. There isn't much of an instruction manual with it so you better have an idea on what your doing in regards to adjustments and set up "If you cant figure out how to attach it you need to turn your weapon in just saying." The internal led for the cross hairs was great with several illumination levels worked well in sunny weather overcast and dark conditions.. The external laser dot how ever has some issues. After about 3 rounds it was off center. After about 8 rounds it was clean off the target. I used the Allen wrench that was supplied to adjust it back several times. Taking in to account that if your target distance changes it will be off automatically due to its placement at the side. But sighting in at 100 yards and continually shooting from there it still was off target after about 8 rounds. Over all put this on a kids 22 and it should be fine. For an AR-15 I wouldn't bother with...
