Friend just put one on his AR carbine, I have shot it a bit.
Reticle is excellent. 1 moa dot in ring with bars. Dot lights up if desired, but scope is fine without a battery. 30mm tube. This is not a small scope. Adjustments are dependable, but "soft" feeling. Low finger knob, scales on top. Should be workable for service conditions, although one would have to be careful when changing elevations. I only zeroed at 100m, didn't shoot it back and forth to 500m, but I can't see any reason why it should not work for service conditions.
I liked it.
Drive down to the states, and bring one back? If you get stopped by Homeland Security on the US side, your day will go downhill really, really fast.
