So I just wanted to put this out there. I went to the gun show today and bought a NcStar Mark III P4 Sniper 2-7X32. It came with a quick mount for the flat top AR already attached. I paid 95 bucks for the scope. Initially the mount didn't clamp down on my AR tightly, but without reading the directions I was easily able to tighten the mount to the point where it was rock solid and still popped off without a fight. I then took it out to the range to zero it. I didn't boresight it first. There is a BDG turret on top that goes from 100-500 yards in five clicks. There is a screw cap on top of that which reveals the adjustment knob for elevation. I really like this feature. The windage turret however does not have a mark that shows you which number you are dialed in at. It spins past itself at least twice in each direction, but the clicks are distinct and not too loose. I bought the last one, which was the display so it was scewed with alot and that may account for how off it was on the initial shot. I was able to dial it in really quickly and after a few go arounds it was holding a 1 1/4 inch group just fine at 100 yards. I was able to rapid fire and still keep a five inch grouping. My AR is not top quality so I can throw that in the mix as well. It is a FrankenAR, built on a Spikes Tactical Lower. However I am extremely happy with it's performance at this point. The retical has two colors, and three brightness settings for each. These are turned on and off with side mounted turret and you do not even have to leave sight picture to manipulate them. I really wanted a USMC RCO Acog, however I did not have the 1700 dollars to drop on one. This I believe is a great replacement. I feel that for the money you cannot beat this scope. For those of you who are looking for a tactical scope, be it for Zombies, SHTF, or rabbid squirrels this will do the trick. I would very likely deer hunt with this scope. I have some more testing to do before I reach that point though. I have not tested the BDC turret, so I can't say that it works as described, but when I am in scope and turn it I can see the crosshairs moving down. This scope I was told is calibrated for the .223, however I do not see that anywhere in the literature. The windage turret also has a set screw in the side, I am understanding it is there so you can take off the turret and turn it to zero, however with the lack of a mark I don't know where you would put the zero. The only things I would say are bad about this scope at the present point is that the instruction manual might as well be toilet paper, it has no information in it. Also the windage knob should be just like the elevation turret. Other than that, if you want a good Acog clone, get this scope!
