Ultra Shot A-Spec Reflex Sight

Got this for my shorty. Wanted to test a budget sight for a range toy. Didn’t want to go all out for a Eotech on a non primary. Looks good and at a decent price. Feels sturdy. It I guess time will tell. If I had the funds to I’d torcher test it to see how she really holds up.

For the price this thing is amazing! Holds zero really good. Takes a beating. Love the features. Brightness is really good. I bought a 2nd one I liked it so much.

I got this for my S&W FPC and found the price to be very decent compared to other optics of bigger brands. I have gone to the indoor range about 5 times now (500 rounds of ammo) and it keeps zero very well. Since it is indoor i have only shot 15, 20 and 25 yds, but it is very accurate and i love being able to choose the reticle i want and adjust the brightness. Very impressed with this optic, would definitely recommend it. Great sight picture when you have both eyes open to acquire quick target aim. Very happy with this purchase.

I was looking for a sight for one of my Ruger 10/22 plinkers and this upgraded Ultra Shot A-Spec caught my eye. Between it's cleaner, sharper lines than earlier Ultra Shot models, good luck with two basic Ultra Shot models on other plinker rifles, and Amazon's price that temporarily beat competitors's price by 15-20 percent, I decided to give it a try. It has only one range trip under its belt but here are my observations.Pros:-Glass is very clean and clear, and the sight provides a wide field of view.-The larger CR123 battery should last longer than the previous button batteries, and battery cap is tethered.-The QD mount, while not of the locking variety, sits very tight on the rail and flush with the sight and weapon. I adjusted it gradually until it snugged down perfectly. Substantial, concerted effort is needed to release the QD lever.-Elevation/windage corrections screws are recessed slightly into the sight body to prevent inadvertent change. They are also firm and provide audible, tactile clicks.-Using the crosshair/dot reticle (my preferred reticle with these models), the sight zeroed well at 50 yards while at the range, keeping rounds within 1.5" from a bench. Corrections seemed to track with the advertised 1 MOA.-The reticle brightness adjustment button is not mushy, and provides audible and tactile clicks.-The 10 daylight brightness settings adjust incrementally, as they should, from very bright to barely visible, and will cover any lighting condition. On my sight the two lowest setting are the equivalent of NV settings, IMO. The lowest one is DEFINITELY night vision level. These two setting provide barely visible, "ghost" reticles, very beneficial for very low light conditions like those I experience during winters here in AK.-It remained powered up thru 2.5 hours at 10 degrees here in AK. I've had better sights die at equivalent temps.-Lastly, it's a sharp looking sight.Cons:-Even though I don't need/desire the six NV setting for this plinker rifle, I must admit they DO NOT WORK. AT ALL. Despite trying in a completely blacked out room, where I should be able to see at least 2-3 higher settings, I'm unable to identify anything. In the highly unlikely event that I ever need NV, I've got the two lowest daylight settings as mentioned above!-Round POI shifts wildly, up to 4 inches horizontally, when changing reticles. But, thankfully, it returned to the initial spot on zero when I switched back to the crosshair/dot reticle I'd initially zeroed on. Whew! LOL-Personally, I'm not a fan of the white logos but this is not a show stopper.-And if it matters, it's slightly larger than original Ultra Shot sights, in line with M-Spec models. I included a pic for visual comparison purposes.I think I'll keep this one. Not a bad sight for my purposes, and I like its design and looks.

The reticle is crisp and easy to adjust between styles the material seems to be of very good quality for the price it’s a very good option

In some ways, I prefer this optic more than my holosun hs510c. I'm a fan of the controls, the ability to switch reticles, and the overall ergonomics/ease of use. Unfortunately I haven't had a chance to zero this in yet, but will update my review whenever I get around to it. Overall, between this and the Sig Romeo, you can't get a better budget red dot.

Exceeded my expectations. For the price, I think this is a great optic. I dig the looks and overall the product all around. Ability to switch the reticle and fast release to swap out optics if you want. If you're debating getting SightMark, I'd say do it. Save the rest of your money for ammo and steel targets🤘🏻

Don’t buy this just because it’s cheap…I’ve had this sight for over a year but rarely used it. Bought it because it matched a shotgun I had and kept it mostly in the case. Not a scratch on it and never dropped (which shouldn’t matter in a quality optic, nevertheless…) most use it got was a 100+/- rounds of 12-gauge birdshot at the range.I went to repurpose it for another rifle and when zeroing in I decided to change reticles and noticed the reticle doesn’t lock in place, rather has a “window” it settles in, never locking in solid. You can hear and feel the clearly defined “clicks” between reticles but can still manipulate the reticle position from side to side which would result in missing a target horizontally by possibly a LOT!Not for accurate shooting beyond 25 yards. Worked great for skeet shooting with a big spread, but don’t count on this optic in a life or death situation.I noticed another 1-star review due to this issue but wanted to reiterate the problem since it could be a deadly miscalculation for anyone in a self-defense situation.Hope the manufacturer remedies this issue since everything else on the optic seemed great and had an affordable price point.
