Black Owl Gear SSC Short Dot 1.5-6x24 Scope with Fiber Optic Illumination
(Reticle: Red)

"Crystal clear glass, reticle is bright. does not use batteries despite what the description says. also uses 30mm rings despite the description.

"The only reason I took off one point for this scope is due to the minor clarity issue when zooming in to higher magnifications. Again, minor clarity issue, as I believe this issue is not uncommon among scope around this price point. Would I recommend? Of course! And, if you'd like a mount for this one, I would also recommend the BOG 30mm scope mount. This is a BOG scope, so the BOG mount would undoubtedly be a perfect match.

*Despite the description sounding like it may need a battery to operate, the scope does NOT need a battery to provide illumination, and it will NOT come with a battery. With that said, the reticle illumination will be solely powered by the fiber wires on the scope, and the brightness of the reticle illumination IS heavily dependent on the brightness of the surrounding environment, so please keep that in mind.

"A good enough fiber optic, low-power variable optic. However, I don't know if it's just my eyesight, but the crosshairs don't appear to be exactly at the 0, 90, 180, and 270 positions, particularly the vertical ones. But, the fiber optic does the job very well when there's enough light.

Pros:
- Low Power Variable Optic
- Fiber Optic

Cons:
- Vertical crosshairs don't seem perfectly vertical, but at the ranges Airsoft is played at, it doesn't matter too much.
- Turret caps must be removed to zero in the sight (I carry an extra charging handle as a turning tool)
- Did not come with scope rings

Subjective:
- 1.5x Zoom means you need to get used to point shooting at close range, buy a scope-mounted optic, offset sights, or just retrain on how to see through both eyes at different zoom levels.
