Yes, it does have the regular black reticle when the red/ green illuminated reticle is turned off.

On the back. Pros it won't turn it's self on when setting the rifle down on its side and this model is cheaper. Cons it could possible be in the way when using magnifiers and NV when mounted behind the EOTech

Don't know. But you should know that this model does not have an illuminated rear sight. Only the front sight is illuminated--i returned it, not knowing that it is basically useless for full-dark situations.

Yes..the battery only allows the illumination of the reticle. Without the battery you have your normal black reticle. Awesome scope. I'm happy with it

the reticle is visible without the illumination on. it is black with it off.

No, it has to be illuminated. The illuminated red/green is 4 different times of low light situations, like green for low light like dusk and red for dark or haze. The illumination hi-lights the reticle scale. When not lite the scale will read black, that's for basic daylight.

Yes, you can see them without illumination. I find it to be a decent scope for a decent price.

Yes, the laser is on the side of the scope with a mounting block and they each have there own switch. The sight in the scope illuminates in red or green, your choice. And, look further you will find the batteries for this scope at a good price when buying in multi-packs.

CR2032 - was covered in my review of the scope. Note that if the battery does die, the reticle is still there, just not illuminated.

Yes. The brightness intensity/color thumbwheel will turn the dot off at the R and G positions. The dot (when on) however is very dim in sunlit conditions unless your target is dark to black.

I assume you mean reticle. with no light on, it is black. with the laser on it glows red or green, I have not had a chance to use the scope yet as I have it on my 7mm mag rifle and its hard to set with 2 feet of snow on the ground, but it looks good and has a nice feel to it. and the red and green have several settings for the brightness. I have read other reviews and many say it does not hold zero well, but it has HUGE easy to turn adjustments, that is the reason it changes so easy, but it is marked once you get it set take note of the settings the 2 nobs are on. I assume it is set this way to adjust for distance as this scope has a huge magnification. and also has a distance nob on it, I assume its to help with focus, guess ill find out in a few months when I finally get a chance to use it. hope this helps, good luck!

Yes. The reticle is normally black and easily visible in daylight with the illumination dial at 0 (OFF). This is true at all magnifications, contrary to some comments. Since the reticle is on the first focal plane, it increases in size as the magnification increases. This means the bullet drop is correct for all magnifications; it also means the reticle looks more like a dot at 1X. When you turn the illumination dial to 1 - 11, it glows an increasingly bright red. 11 is quite bright -- useful for making the reticle stand out against a bright background, but too bright for night. Store it with the reticle illumination off (0). When hunting, or in competition or self defense situation, set it to as much illumination as you need. Bright makes it stand out quickly, but too much glow makes it less precise. I think it works very well.

Jarrod, From the Trijicon website The reticle will appear black during the daytime and will glow amber in the dark...

It has black wire reticles. Illumination can be off, or can be controlled from barely visible to quite strong. It is also red or green, depending on which way you turn the dial

You see a black reticle, just like a normal non-illuminated scope. The circle around the center dot is very wide. I like it for fast acquisition, but many people complain it is too wide and blocks their view.

Yes it does, certainly not as precise as my competition Weaver T series or Vortex, but a great value for the money. I keep it on my "truck" rifle for ventures into the north woods. Rugged, reliable and holds its zero well and an excellent value with a lifetime warranty to boot. A recommendation if you purchase one, the IR is great for low light don't, but don't use it turned up all the way as it will obliterate the cross hairs with the glow, a low setting is perfect for those early morning and late afternoon opportunities.
