I see it's match grade military this and that....advertised as an airsoft accessory! Can this sight hold a zero on a 5.56 rifle after "field use"?

I had to adjust it all the way to one side to get on target. It did stay, but was hard to use all the way to the right. I returned it and went with Magpul MBS. Also hard to turn adjustments. Hope this helps.

Great sight I sighted in at 100 yard and holds a steady 6 inch group or better depending on me,I like it a lot and will put another on my next build

Seems sturdy enough. I think as long as you're not actively and repeatedly slamming it into walls or metal doors it should hold up fine. If you're concerned you can always get the LMT A2 rear sight, but its also in the $130 range.

It isn't listed as airsoft ONLY. It is listed under airsoft accessories because that way it pops up jnder airsoft sight searches and the seller can market it to the airsoft crowd. It is for 5.56 rifles and it DOES hold "zero" on these rifles as I have it installed on all 6 of my AR-15 5.56x45mm rifles.

This is not an air soft accessory. I have it on my AR10 and my AR15 and both hold up to all the abuse I can throw at it. Very sturdy metal construction.

I have one mounted on a Browning camper pistol and one on a ruger 10/22 takedown sighted at 50 tds. Both hold zero exceptionally well. Easy to install, as I would imagine for a Missberg 590. Pain inthe ass to sight in but once it's there it's awesome. I hope that helps.

I'm thinking it probably will hold just fine for a AK round. But, I wouldn't bet so on a higher recoil cartridge. It's holding up rather well on my AR pieces (rifle / pistol). Hadn't had to re-zero as of yet. The sight is a good value for the dollar when a EoTech 512 is not in the budget.

I had it on a 7.62x39 so from my experience yes. I sold the gun it was on so don't know how long it's gonna hold up. I found it to be decent as a cheap optic when your in the bush. And it looks really nice.

I have two. I only buy good quality optics and honestly I never had an optic that required more rounds fired to zero. It seems to me that after dialing a change in windage or elevation, it takes a few shots to get the change to take and then hold. After it "settles in" it seems to hold zero fine. Not a huge deal, but I don't care for this aspect on the sight.

I mounted mine on my flat top, and to the handguard mount, not the gas block. I have not had any issues with sighting in or holding a zero.

These type of mounts (flip to side or slide to side) always have some movement when deployed. They are meant for magnifiers where it doesn't make any difference. It would not hold zero at all with a scope in it. You would be lucky to keep your shots in an 8-10" circle at 50 yards using one of these. You need a solid mount for that or a set of rings that mount solidly to the rifle. You can also buy quick disconnect rings that will hold better zero when taken off and put back on if you buy good ones. Cheap ones just won't do the task.

this is not able to hold zero on anything larger than a 223. I installed this on my AR10 and after trying to zero I figured out that the scope was not the problem it was the levers that attach the mount to rifle were coming loose. I would get the regular mounts with the Allan wrench attachments or the flat head attachments.

I have it mounted to my mosin which shoots a 7.62x54 round. It stays zeroed for me I love this scope! You can put it on an airsoft gun no issue.

It puts it at perfect eye level.Once you find your "cheek" position it very quick. Now I personally don't run BUIS sights on my 300blk rifle so not sure if those will line up, however; I don't think you'll be disappointed!

Yes, BUT! Make sure during your range time to check and tighten the screws every few rounds or so. On my Mosin the rail would slightly shift forward and after every 20 or so rounds I would need to readjust the mount. Having to readjust will effect the zero slightly, but it's nothing frustrating, in my case anyway.

yeah I think you would be good you just need a quality mount. if you go cheap with the mount like me mine is forward mounted " scout scope" on a cheap quad rail on my ak and no issues with losing zero yet.but any other way I would spend the money on a good mount.

I found the A2 replica front post sight to be very close to the M16 upper receiver A2 sight post which is a fixed post. What make this sight nice is that it is removable. However, I have a 1 x 4 power scope mounted on a 1 inch riser. I leave the front A2 mil spec attached for looks, it does not affect my scopes sight picture. I also have a carrying handle with integrated manual backup mil spec peeps, just in case my scope loses it's zero. With just a few twist of the binding posts' and a swap out, I am back in action!

Hey brother. I'm not too sure if it will withstand the recoil of the .223/5.56. I have an MP 15-22. I returned this optic and bought the TRS 25 red dot with the UTG medium riser. It cowitnesses perfectly with the Magpul BUIS. This a great combo that's effective and very cost effective too. Spend a little extra cash if you can. Don't look to this Leapers sight.

I've never tried this for airsoft, but as long as it has a standard rail, then its fine. Also if it doesnt fit your gun, you can easily grab a pair of nuts and bolts, and make it fit any gun you please. Worth the money? Not really, it works for distance ok but only to get an idea as to where it might go horizontally.

Yes for sure. This is a good optic for its money. The optic is designed to stay on point with large recoil. I attach and detach mine from the rail when cleaning with no loss in precision.

No, the cheek weld is fine but my stock sits higher (richards microfit tackdriver) I did have to get shorter scope rings. Its comfortable to shoot no worrying about poking your eye out with the recoil. Solid? no I am having problems maintaining my zero. Because this mounts over the rear sight not all rear sights are the same size and when its 100yds out a little play is a lot of difference. Also I cannot bring the sight down far enough because this sits so high, I just used a lower mil-dot to zero it. It will take some work and investigation but you can get this to be a solid and functioning mount.
