emilianoksa Posted January 20, 2019 Posted January 20, 2019 I've found a cheap red dot on Amazon - trade name same as another cheap red dot I own that is OK. The same item is for sale on the bay for half the price. Now I know it's always a lottery with cheap Chinese stuff, but has anybody ever bought a red dot for 13 quid that turned out to be any good??
Supporters Prisce Posted January 20, 2019 Supporters Posted January 20, 2019 There was a thread a while ago about a Cheap T1 Red dot site on amazon that was £10ish that everyone was endorsing... can’t remember the name though.
Enid_Puceflange Posted January 20, 2019 Posted January 20, 2019 I’m waiting on this arriving any day now
Supporters Adolf Hamster Posted January 20, 2019 Supporters Posted January 20, 2019 ^ those are surprisingly good for the price, do the job although they will not take a hit.
Enid_Puceflange Posted January 20, 2019 Posted January 20, 2019 Good to hear maybe a lense protector should be ordered too ?
Wo1f Posted January 20, 2019 Posted January 20, 2019 These things are great. I’ve had one on my Gas MP7 for about a year and it hasn’t missed a beat. No large frame to obstruct your vision either.

Mostly Retired Moderators L3wisD Posted January 20, 2019 Mostly Retired Moderators Posted January 20, 2019 I had a "Pinty" branded red dot off of Amazon for about £13. For the money it was spot on. If it's cheap, it's probably worth a gamble. What else are you going to spend the money on?
koppel Posted January 20, 2019 Posted January 20, 2019 Anyone have any experience of this one from taiwangun? http://www.taiwangun.com/en/red-dot-sights/tg-1x30st-red-dot-sight-vector-optics?from=listing&campaign-id=19

Supporters Druid799 Posted January 21, 2019 Supporters Posted January 21, 2019 Thing to remember is if you see a scope for X amount on Amazon your pretty much guaranteed IT IS the same one you saw on fleabay for half the price , there’s only one or two factories in China making them (yrs ago back in the pre-UKARA day talking to a guy at a site who ‘dabbled’ in selling guns , he told me that even though all the Airsoft guns/scopes/mags/etc are totally illegal in China as no one is allowed to own any kind of ‘hardware’ , there made in illegal factories and sold illegally through HK , the manufacturing is unofficially but strictly controlled by the communist party so they control it AND get there cut of the money !) so it has to have come from one of them . On a side note I have one that’s got to be over 10yrs old that had the front lenses shot out not long after I had it and it still works fine ! ?
