| Hey guys, Ive been sniping with my red dot ever since i got my rifle. So, im lookinng for a scope, just, not too expensive, as i don\'t airsoft that much ( im under 16). I found this one; http://www.airsoftgi.com/product_info.php?cPath=36_117&products_id=5287but, wouldnt it be better if i could adjust for range and wind on the field? Or isn\'t that important? Thnx in advance, Michael | |

| Friend has that on his Bar-10. The tinting is a little off...its really like a neon red.
Would it be better if you could adjust for range and wind in the field? Well, not really. Honestly now... you take your shots and correct after following the BB's path with your eye.
If you want to adjust for windage, this is the scope...but most airsoft DM's and "snipers" don't make adjustments to their optics to correct shots.
Its a nice scope, but the tinting is off. That alone may be enough to turn you away from it. | |

| Thanks to both of you. About the color, After reading the reviews, i noticed it aswel, just wasn\'t sure wether it was that annoying, or not, thanks for clearing that out! @Gentry, that scope looks cool aswel. Imma visit my local shop tomorrow, and if they don\'t got a better one ( which i think they don\'t) i might get that one! thnx again! | |

| When in doubt: Walmart.
As much as I hate supporting the largest retailer of sweatshop toys, they've got great prices. I've seen decent hunting scopes in their sports section for less than $40.
I have one on my .22 for plinking and it's a joy. I think it's a Bushnell "trophy" red dot. Only ran me out $50 on sale. Great piece. | |

| Oh that'd do it. I think you should move. Just because there's no walmart.
Surely you have McDonalds though, heheh.
I'll look around on the web for some scope package deals...you would be able to buy from, say, Amazon or Cabela's or something? I wonder if Amazon would ship to Belgum for cheap. | |

| i don\'t think they even ship there, but, i could send it to illinois, and let my aunt mail it to me ( which would be only like 8 bucks, and she'd pay it for me lol) | |

| Heres what I use on my l96. Very durable and practical with no optical distortion even at distance and the rubber coating stops scratches. Plus instead of the traditional coin zero turrets they are finger turned. All in all kinda pricey but IMHO definitely worth every penny. | |
