CVLIFE 2.5-10x40e Red & Green Illuminated Scope with 20mm Mount

Put this on a AR. Install was a no-brainer. The fit on the rail was perfect with the tightening knobs were able to seat and tighten the scope all you need with just your hands.I have about 200 rounds with this scope and here’s what I’ve found.First it’s NOT 2.5 X 10. More like a 1 X 6 as best as I can tell. This is plenty for what I’m using it for but just wanted to get that out there. Next, the control knob for the reticle illumination is really tight. This may work loose over time but it’s difficult to turn. I’ve read from others that the reticle illumination sucks because it lights up the interior of the scope’s tube. This is true, it does however if you’re using correct eye relief it’s not an issue because you don’t see the inside of the tube anyway. Still, they could’ve done better.Now onto the good parts.It holds its zero spot on. At least this far for me. The illumination has enough settings to be effective in all light levels that you would need it for.The laser switch is not located so it’s easy to use with a AR platform but the green laser seems to be especially effective, even in daylight out to about 25 yards or so. I would not buy the red laser. It’s useless in the daylight at any distance. In the dark they are both effective.I can’t speak to how durable it is. I suspect it’s OK on that front but not “ Military” grade.The glass is fine. No complaints there.The scope has a sun visor on the front. Not a fan of that. Would prefer a standard straight cut on the tube.For the money you spend it’s as good as you’ll find and is on par with some of the more expensive scopes. I would consider it again should I need another scope of its type.

Nicely built, easy to adjust, clarity is excellent !

Looks amazing on the rifle love the red dot. Scope is amazing.

Very great quality Scope for the price! I went to the range and sighted it in and it was extreamly accurate. Then my buddy shot it as well even though it was sighted to my eye and he even hit his mark right where it should be. Sighted in the laser on it as well and even that hit its mark. I highly recommend this as a budget or beginner friendly sight to get you started for your Rifle!

Very impressive sight, for the price and performance, minimal, light weight, beat my expectations and then some. Good for 22lr, 5.56, 223, 7.62, 308, 30-06. Worth a buy.

I would like to clarify this first. I haven't used this aside from taking it out of the box to check it out. I haven't been able to because the mounts that came with it don't fit my carbine. I own a 995 hi point, which has weaver style rails. I called their customer support and got in touch with someone from the machining side of the company to check on that. The scope itself seems like a good product. The issue I have with it and at this point with the seller is that this product page advertises the mounts as weaver style. Granted, the mounts do have two different kind of lips you can clamp onto a rail, that isn't why I can't use it. The spacing of the pins on the mounts is what makes this unsuitable. I can fit one pin into a notch on my rail but the other one will be riding a ridge, and not by a few millimeters that I could file down, I mean by an entire ridge.Now if there are any other hi point owners out there, or people just well versed in the gun culture, then you already know there are some decent aftermarket accessories for them, like the picatinny rail I could buy. But I don't want to spend another $50 just to be able to mount this, I would find that a little ridiculous, though that's a personal opinion. Instead I thought, "No big deal, just contact the seller and tell them they got their mounts wrong." Because, they did. My friend tried this same scope on his AR with his picatinny rails and it fit right into the notches with no problem. So I sent them a message through Amazon, it's been at least two or three weeks at this point with no response, and Amazon asks that you allow 48 hours for a seller to respond.I'd love to say that I've used this scope and that it's the best bang for your buck kind of item. But I'm not planning on spending $100 to be able to use a $50 optic. The mounts were wrong, the lens caps came with the front one halfway busted out, and the seller hasn't responded to me even to to tell me if they can't do anything about the mounts. It's a bit disappointing. Though if you are someone who is looking at this item, and this review, and you have a picatinny set-up, it should work great for you.
