CVLIFE1X22X33 Red Green Dot Gun Sight Scope Reflex Sight with 20mm Rail

I bought this sight in 2022 and never looked back. An EXCELLENT CHOICE with versatility that's second to none, and better than many with it's Dot, Circle/Dot, Crosshair/Dot and Crosshair/Circle/Dot combination of sighting pictures/reflections! As well, you get your choice of 5 different brightness settings in either red or green. Settings low enough to see any of them at dusk/night clearly, to super bright so you can see them in the sun light! Runs on a CR2032 battery sold everywhere... and my original btty that came with it 3 years ago is still powering it as bright as the day I got it! It's sat for several months at different times in the off position and has never failed once.I see a LOT of bad reviews claiming folks have zeroed it in with a laser bore/chamber sight and then claimed they couldn't hit the broad side of barn. I think MOST of the complainers have no clue how to check their laser bore/chamber zeroing equipment for true zero and that is the reason they can't hit the broad side of a barn with their firearm!!! Just because it says "Bore Sight" for sighting in your scopes and red dot or iron sights etc DOESN'T MEAN *it* is properly zeroed in to begin with. Why do you think you must zero in your scopes or red dot sights? Because many aren't truly zeroed in at the factory after how many thousands pass down the line! Think about that for a minute relative to laser bore-sighting equipment.Do your home work guys and gals! Learn how to check your test/alignment/zeroing equipment to be sure it's at it's optimal best before you go blaming another piece of equipment that relies on *that* piece of equipment you're ASSUMING is perfect in the first place! This red dot sight is very accurate once setup and zeroed in with properly tested sighting-in equipment that's truly zeroed before hand. Almost *every* reviewer that's complained admits the sighting/zeroing process is repeatable. Doesn't that tell you something!?!?This sight is no different than the $200-400 sights in quality and craftsmanship, except those manufacturers have taken the time to be sure it's zeroed in at the factory level so you'll PAY their asking price as they constantly/consistently check their factory testing/zeroing equipment over and over. That costs time and money that your paying extra for with VERY few exceptions on the market. Those exceptions are generally red dot *scopes* with coated optics that magnify etc. This red dot sight as others have corrected reviewers about, *IS NOT A SCOPE*! It's a clear piece of ground glass that the internal light producing the red dot you see is reflected on! Therefore it's a sight that serves the same purpose as iron sights.I own three different CVLIFE brand sighting pieces of equipment, 2 rifle scopes and this red dot sight. Every one of them are high quality sights for the money that do what they're designed to do if/when properly set up. No they're not $5k Zeiss scopes etc, but as others have said, you get what you pay for as a rule of thumb. But I'm here to say their ARE exceptions, and CVLIFE is one of those exceptions IMHO.One CVLIFE scope I own is mounted on a 5.56 AR-15, one on a .458 SOCOM AR-15, and this red dot currently on a 12GA bullpup shotgun with a 20" smooth bore barrel that puts slugs inside a 3” circle at 50 yards all day long! For what they cost, I can't say enough good about CVLIFE products at this point. I'm a private individual that was not promised, given, or-coerced in any way for my 2¢ worth of opinion stated here.I payed retail price for these out of my own pocket just as most of you have and I'm *NOT* affiliated with CVLIFE, or any other company for that matter. This is MY own 2¢ worth of opinion. Take it for what it's worth. I'm just tired of people bad mouthing things because they don't know what they're talking about, doing, or even how to do things correctly. I see this mentality *everywhere* and just got tired of it, so I stated my opinion! You don't have to like or even agree with it! ..but if you've read this far, then I thank you for your time and interest.So there you have it! Ignore those that don't do as noted above and have nothing good to say because of their own lack of knowledge about what they're doing, their own shortcomings, or how to do things properly. This is a good red dot sight when properly adjusted and set up with properly tested and known good setup equipment. Get someone that knows what they're doing to set it up if you don't. Not everything's perfect in life and their are flawed units out there, but far *more* than 16k people bought this red dot sight and folks are still buying it. They can't all be wrong! ...and only 16k of 'em left a review! Go figure!!!Get yourself one or two of these sights and get it/them set up properly! I promise, you won't regret it. ...Enjoy!

Typically CV life has good products for the uber-cheap price. This one is a no go. There is a halo around the reticle that blurs high and to the right. I intended to use this in dot mode on a pellet rifle, but the blur makes the dot egg shaped and about three times the size. You can mitigate this by using the lowest brightness in bright conditions(the opposite of what you should do) so that the extra artifact doesn't show, but then you can barely see the dot. And if you look into shadows, your "blob" is back. I'd try another brand on this one.UPDATE: changed from 2 stars to 5. So I was pretty bummed that my sight was a partial dud because I've had good luck with their products in the past. Well, the company reached out to me and asked me how they could make it right! That's hard to beat! And they did not even ask me to edit my review. CV Life offers inexpensive products that are pretty darn good. Considering the price, you would almost expect to just have to live with dud if you buy enough items. Apparently you don't have to live with it. That customer service completely makes up for any mistakes as far as I'm concerned.

I just got this today. I am not one for writing reviews but I must admit, I am impressed with this. I am putting it on my new Ruger mark IV 22/45. It seems to be built well. Admittedly I have not fire the gun ot tried to zero it yet but if the thing performs as well as it seems to be made I think it should be fine. I like the clearness and all the brightness of it. I hope I'm not going to be disappointed. I put one of their shoes on a Marlin model 60 and I really like it as well. I will update once I get it set up and test it out.Here's hoping!

To be honest, I still like shooting irons BUT there's times when I install this on different rifles. NOT a Holsun 507 BUT more than adequate for the Avg Joe or Josephine.

Very nice sight. Easy to install.

Easy to install and the battery compartment was easy to open and add the battery
