With little economical recourse, I started trying these cheap China scopes off Ebay. I was able to source some fixed power and even 2x-7X variable handgun models for about $50-60. My intention was to beat the whizz out them testing heavy kicking rounds. At that price point if they lasted even a bit, I was good. Out of 4-5 I bought only one had a malfunction (loose internal lens) and they replaced it for me. The optics have advanced so much over the years, industry wide, that they are probably as good as top models of a decade or two ago. Very crisp and clear with good light transmission as it gets dim.

*Never pass a deal on a Simmons 4X fixed handgun scope, new or used, they have lifetime transferable warranty. Or used to. I bought a couple crapped out used ones and they sent me new ones for only postage! They handle extreme recoil very well.

After I get my loads tested I put on a premium scope and sight in for hunting use.
