Honest opinion on the NC Star scope?

[Czarface]

Guys and gals is the scope any good? It's very inexpensive but I also believe that you pay for what you get...

 

[Death]

Depending what your looking for for magnification I'd save an go low end Nikon or Vortex. Don't waste time or money on NcStar

 

[misanthropist]

Garbage

What he said.

Save your money. I had one on my 308 and it just disintegrated in double quick time, but Im also aware of one that is still good after nearly 2 years. That wouldn't persuade me to buy another one tho. Luckily I have a good relationship with my local gunstore and he took it back no questions. I would hate to try and deal with some of the bigger stores in a situation like that.

You get what you pay for and that ain't much

 

[skeetgunner]

They are simply craptacular.

 

[Czarface]

Thank you all for advice!!! I honestly thought so my self, I buddy had mentioned it to me but I thought I would check!! Thx again

The NC brand falls somewhere below an entry level Bushnell and slightly better than a seeing-eye dog.

308!!! Yeah the ncstar has no place on a centrefire. Works great on my 22 though, very happy with it.

NC Star is crap, save your money.

Their stuff is marginally passable for use with paintball or airsoft, but garbage for a real firearm

Don't think their mounts are any better.

Grizz

I bought an NC Star monocular. Looked though it the 1st time I bought it, said "cool, not bad for 10 bucks (or less possibly)". Put it away and went use it again about 4-5 weeks later. The lenses fell out.

I think Quang Lo used his jizz to glue the lenses into the housing.

 

[AllanC]

Garbage, lasted about 20 rounds of 308. Learnt my lesson with that one.

 

[smiley1]

The glass is so fuzzy on mine it's like wearing beer goggles! If that's not bad enough the cross hairs are crooked!! Stay away...far, far away.

I've got the 2-7x tri-railed illuminated scope on my Mossberg Tactical .22lr, works great.
Wouldn't put it anywhere near my .270 or a 12Ga though.

I got an NC Star red dot with a 22 I bought, it wouldn't hold zero, the mount was wobbly and out of spec, and was just garbage.... on a 22. Stay away.

I shouldn't have had coffee in my mouth when I read this. It kinda hurts when you blow hot coffee through your nose.

Buy one for your kids cap gun, it will work great for him. I had a rubberised model that sat ontop of a Winchester 6.5x55 M70... Couldn't get the damn thing to adjust for crap....4 clicks up..bang bang bang....still 4 clicks up....bang bang bang...oh now 8 clicks right....bang bang bang..now 8 clicks right and 8 down.....F*aaaa!!!!!
Call it an exercise in futility. FYI it didn't work on my 597 either.
