NcStar Gen II Aluminum Red Dot Sight with 20mm Mount (Color: Black)

"Great red dot sight, looks super awesome on an M4. It's great for someone who's just getting started, or someone just looking for a cheaper yet awesome sight. The red dot is crisp, the build is great! Unfortunately, mine got cracked from a BB today, good thing theyre super cheap!

"Very well made sight, and took me less than a minute to sight it in. This is a great buy for the price, and fits and looks great with an m4. I was very impressed with the quality and definitely recommend this if you're looking for a red dot and you're not in the market for something very expensive. It comes with a battery for it and a nice lens cleaner.

Very happy with this purchase, hope this helped!

"For 15 dollars it's pretty good. Easy to adjust, needs a philips screwdriver to attach, and the dot is very visible. Could just be me but it seems to be a little difficult to see through when aiming at a darker area. Good starter sight, honestly surprised it isn't like 20-25$

"Its a 15 dollar optic. I cant really say much more then that. It's glass is pretty clear, the dot shows up well. Its easy to use and the battery life is decent. My battery compartment did detach from the housing with a little bit of force but a dab of superglue fixed that. its not made of glass, but won't survive a lot of abuse. Its a $15 red dot, what else can i really say?

"great for the price good quality not to good in bright light though

"A pretty solid piece for the price tag. I'm happy with mine, for sure.

Pros:
-Cheap and durable. Good stuff.
-Can be dialed for elevation and windage.
-Mounts fairly easily.
-Easy enough to replace the battery.
-Comes with 2 batteries inside.

Cons:
-Weird geometry. Cannot fit sight specific covers, as far as I can tell.
-Fairly long design.
-Fairly elevated, off the rail, which is actually somewhat of a good thing in this case.
-Non-customizable size, reticle, and color/opacity. Default dot is dummy thicc.

Don't be deterred by the cons here. This is a good reticle for the price, and does its job with ease. You get what you pay for, and this is a good place to start. For high precision shooting, however, don't expect much from any dot sight, this one extra so. It's for a quick point-and-shoot, and that's what it does.

"Found myself wanting a new dot because this one is sort of blurry, and you can see the outline of tyhe reflection on the lens. Although, for how cheap it is: If you arent that picky, get it. It is easily adjustable and holds its zero well.

"Hey it works, not only that but it does it well.

Pros
low profile
cheap
easy to use
long battery life

Cons
mildly dim.

8/10

"Lightweight and functional. It's a little long for my MP7, the mount screws doesn't feed through the picatinny rail grooves it just clamps, It's kind of low profile, adjusting doesn't seem to do much. It does project a red dot but the it's got a bit of crowning. I would have liked the red dot to be more solid. It's exactly what it's supposed to be. An inexpensive red dot.

"Before purchasing this product/reading this review, know that the sight is
1. Cheap
2. Not meant for precision shooting (eg. pellet gun plinking, high power air rifles, and definitely not real firearms)

Alright, now into the review. Probably the best thing about this particular optic is its price. It comes in at under $15, which makes it easily the cheapest airsoft sight worth getting. It lacks the features associated with more expensive optics, such as color/reticle changing and brightness settings. It also has a hard time staying perfectly zeroed (which makes sense considering the price). But don't let this turn you off from buying this sight. These cons don't really impact its performance because it is primarily meant for indoor cqb. In cqb, especially very close quarters fields, having a perfectly zeroed sight doesn't matter, neither does the color or shape of the reticle. The purpose of a red dot sight in cqb is to make it so that you don't have waste time using potentially obstructive iron sights. All you should have to do is point the dot at your target and fire. And for that, this sight functions perfectly. Another benefit of its cheap price is that when it inevitably gets shot out, it costs very little to replace, so don't bother spending money on a lens protector

"PROS-
Good battery life
Great look
Effective



CONS-
adjustments can get knocked loose after running around a bit
Takes up a lot of rail space
Red dot can be dim outdoors( no too bad)

"Pros:

Cheap
Crisp dot
Easy to use
Comes with 2! batteries

Cons:
Takes up more rail space than I'd like :/
The dot can be fuzzy if you mount it too close or too far away from your eye
Polarized Lens (would normally be a pro in real-steel sights but in airsoft it makes weird reflections with my sight protector)

"Simple cheap red dot sight, I don't have much a problem with it for the cost. I attached this to my M14 for using at short to medium ranges and it works mostly fine. Biggest complaint is something after much moving or the gun shakes a bit too much it can knock the battery a bit out. Not enough to actually remove it, but enough for the laser to stop working. I advise using a piece of tape to keep it in.

"Good for the money the dials are backwards on mine and the reticle does move much at all.
