Feel weird asking this on ea sub 100$ optics, but here we go.
Does it have Shake awake, if not auto shut off ?
what is the battery life ?
Dot size 2, 3, 6 moa ?
what is the warranty?
Parallax ?
Mount Height, ie 1/3 co-witness ? Any other mounts ?

Added your points to mine, maybe someone will follow up.

Reverse image search suggests this is an airsoft “optic”.

You guys are asking for way too much out of a $99 optic LOL

here is a another sub 100$ optic description
- Motion Awake Technology
- IPX7 Waterproof
-10 Brightness Settings
-2 MOA Red Dot
-50,000 Battery Life
includes mount components for different heights.

the questions asked are basic stuff for a Red dot.

UpperCanadaRebellion Though reverse search may show it as an Airsoft, Those look alike Airsoft take CR1632 batteries, not CR2032 as the Viking does, clearly the internals are different. I highly Doubt it's an Airsoft optic repackaged.

That's silly. Things like dot size are critical factors, regardless of the price.

Yeah I was thinking more about warranty issues... at $99 it's almost not worth the shipping costs to get it fixed.

If it lasts a season I would say you got your money's worth

I wouldn't. There is no reason a $100 optic shouldn't last years. Look at the scopes that come on package rifles like the Axis and Rem783, I've bought the exact same Weaver you can get on some of those for $60. My buddies Axis 2 came with one, he still uses that scope and it's been almost a decade of hunting and range use while seeing at least 400 rounds of 30-06 in that time. Mine hasn't been used nearly as much and is only on a 243win but it's like 3-4 years old and still working just fine.

Another example, My Savage MK2 rocks a $40 Burris rimfire scope. That gun has seen thousands of rounds and many many miles in the field. Clarity sucks. Eyebox sucks. But it's just as functional as the day I bought it.



For $100 I don't expect good glass clarity, great ergonomics, or all the bells and whistles, and i don't expect them to withstand being abused, but I DO expect it to last under normal use.
