Veteran Owned Company- DDHQ Red Dot Reflex Sight Scope with Quick Detach Mount- Reflex Sight Optic and Substitute for Holographic red dot Sight

I changed my upper out on a m16 sear gun to a flat top upper. Was not interested in ordering anything on the high side as I like to try those things out before dropping 1000.00. Let me tell you what this thing is not. It is not a trijicon, aim point, or eotech. If you crave high dollar brand name stuff and your wife runs around with Kate spade purses this may not be for you. If you want stuff that does what it says it will do and looks ok doing it then read on.First and foremost this is electronic equipment. I see folks judging this type of equipment all the time making comments regarding how well these things would hold up if your life depended on it. This in my opinion is nothing more than an aid in target acquisition. They all do pretty much the same thing. I would not place any reliance on any of them to save my life period. Any of them can break as they are all electronic devices. If you want to rely on an electronic device to save your life that is up to you. Me on the other hand would rather rely on good old proven simple iron sights. I don't call them back up iron sights as to me these scopes are to backup my iron sights and allow me quicker target acquisition nothing more nothing less.Having said that I was finaly able to take this thing out this weekend for a test drive. Bore sighted it in a few days before heading out to the range and ran it over the weekend. Did not take time to fine tune the bore sighting as it was pretty close to spot on from the bore sight. All I really wanted to see if this thing would hold zero once locked down. Ran the m16 semi and full auto for maybe 400 to 500 rounds. Brought it home place bore sight on it again and spot on. Same distance same setup and no movement from original zero.Not sure what else I could ask for out of this device. I own trijicon stuff and several higher end mk iv Leupold scopes on my sniper rifles. They are all high quality and I simply don't see this being anything I would class as low quality. Don't make the mistake of thinking low price equates to low quality here. I see it more as great value for your hard earned money.As I said earlier if you are more interested in being the cool guy at the range and money is not an issue by all mean you can spend a lot more money and get something that others will drool over. I am not rich by any stretch of the imagination but have no issues dropping a lot of coin on high quality optics and have done so on many many occasions , I simply don't see the need to do so on an M16.Bottom line this thing works, holds a zero, easy to see, easy to mount, and use easy to clean. If I could change anything on it I would figure out a way to have a cover for it. Some time of rubberized cover to snap over the entire thing would be great for storing and transportation. Other than that it has found a nice home on my m16 and the money I saved will go reloading presses to make more ammo.

I bought this to use on a Century Arms AK I didn't really care about. It got used and abuse and beat to oblivion and back treating it like one does a junky trunk rifle. I never had my zero shift. Ever. Even when switching reticles. I liked it enough that I reasoned that I didn't need to buy a higher priced optic for my patrol rifle. So I am a Sheriff's Deputy and I use this optic for work. Is it an Eotech? No. Is it good enough to shoot within 200 yards? Yes. Does it have parallax? Yes. So does a Eotech, although with much less drift and variation. Why is your head floating around behind your rifle anyway? It has green and red reticles. With a good battery it would have to be an extremely bright day to wash out the brightest setting. The battery life is phenomenal. A friend left it on and I put it in the case on my rifle and it was in and bright 3 weeks later. I do witlsh it had automatic shut off and was brighter, but it cost me $40 when I bought it. I can't co plain too much, but I would pay much more for that feature. I also wish it took Double A batteries. They're just so much easier to find. I live in a rural area and when I can't wait a week for batteries to come in the mail, I have to drive 50 miles to Batteries Plus. It's a pain. So the sight isn't perfect. But it is stupendous for the price.To counter some complaints:Mount coming loose: I have fired 1200 rounds of 7.62x39 without taking mine off with no shiftYou're doing it wrong.Blurry reticle: Congratulations. You have an astigmatism. It's not Mike's fault. You probably are a diabetic suffering from retinal neuropathy. See your doctor and lay off the sugar. Put on glasses and watch how sharp the reticle gets. Do I sound harsh? It's because I needed this advice myself. When I have my glasses on my bled out reticle is sharp and crisp several years and thousands of rounds later.Mount broke when installing: you know these aren't vice grips, right?Come on, guys. Know what you're talking about before reviewing.

It’s much better than expected to be fair. I honestly wasn’t expecting much from this mid to low tier optic but after first impressions and installation it seems it will do the job nicely. I would recommend this red dot optic if you’re not ready to dole out substantial coin for other optics. Downside would be blurry or double image reticles. I did change the batteries as mentioned in the instructions to brand new batteries even though the optic was sent with “new” or unused batteries if the reticles were blurry but it only improved about 50%. It’s still a tad bit too blurry for my liking. If there’s a solution for this I’m missing I’d like to know, maybe the company can reply to my review for troubleshooting. Otherwise the build quality it pretty good, I don’t know about durability yet but overall it’s quick to install and mount and adjusting the elevation and windage is a breeze with the included Allen tools. Get yourself a bore laser sight and you should be set. Price does not equate quality always, this is one of those times.

This is an easy-to-use red dot that is perfect for an AR or similar rifle. The brightness adjustment is intuitive and so easy to access. So is the battery access. The side-mounted dial makes a huge difference. I do like the easy selection of reticle too. The mounting systems is a big improvement over my old site. The quick release makes it so easy to get the unit on and off for storage. My initial reason for trying this sight was because it was made in the USA by a veteran-owned company. I would buy another one because it works.

Very surprised in quality of construction. Like a previous review stated, you could charge 3 times as much and it would still be a good deal! Don't think about it, just buy one!
