can it take the 12g recoil? How many shots have you shoot with it?

Hi Rommel, so far I just performed some test shots (got a redpoint sight as well) and haven´t noticed any loosening, so far count 10 consecutive rounds...

mine would not turn back on after around 12 rounds. But they gladly and kindly sent me a new one and the new one is fine

Manufacturer strongly suggest that loctite screw-locking fluid (or any other brand) is applied as a mean to prevent loosening caused by strong recoil, this has worked for me as well.

I had it on ar-15 and it worked fine, no issues, hard to say on a 12 gauge, but I bet itll hold up, for 304 its worth it, reticle as good as any

Yes, the gun is actually 400 fps with .12 bbs. I don't know if it hurts a lot because I never shot anybody with it, nor have I been shot by it.

Not a good choice. I bought a stock that has a internal spring system. Firm enough to steady the shot but does relieve the recoil. I have it on an AK-47, but I think it would be more effective for a shotgun. Not cheap. Over $100 but not cheaply made.

Well I am going to put it on my Mossberg so I will let you know what happens! My understanding is that it will handle the recoil just fine.

100% yes! I have mine on a AK 47 that shoots a 762x39 and it has heavy recoil. I zeroed it 1 time n been shooting w it for months now w no movement at all.. Its the best dot for the price all day. You well be very happy w it..

I do not believe the "recoil" would bother it at all. It is approx. 7/8 inches in diameter and very sturdy.

Tough to say. I have it mounted on a mini 14. It has held zero through about 200 rounds. But a 12 gauge hits a lot harder. For the price it's worth a shot....

I put it on an air venturi Bronco and so far okay. It is supposed to handle the recoil. I haven't put many rounds through mine around a hundred only so maybe someone else with more use will chime in.

In all fairness, all makers list by heir scopes as being recoil proof, but never list what might be a max caliber. I would think with all my testing with several different calibers I would not be worried at all . It's a great scope at a good price point and I feel you would be fine. Like everything we buy, we take a gamble, and with the background of this maker you should be good to go ! If I am wrong feel free to blast me accordingly !

I've shot both weights from this pistol - they go at least 200 feet but then the .12g curve up while the .2g go straight(ish). Don't use anything <12g or >25g

I can only comment on the gun that it's mounted on, which has a fairly heavy recoil. A 7 mm Remington magnum. I've only fired 20 rounds with this scope on this gun, and it seems to work well.

The gun is not too heavy. The trigger pull is a little heavy, although I don't think too bad. But after I go thru about six or so clips of ammo, my trigger finger is a little tired. The gun comes with only one clip that holds about 19 b's. I bought two extra clips so I can load up three and do a little shooting before heaving to reload again. I also use peloil on the co2 cartridge. I got my extra clips and oil from Amazon. It is fun to shoot. It will easily shoot 100 feet and more, but accuracy on a target is only about 20 to 30 feet. Still fun to shoot. I like it.

And just saying if 9mm will break it you know it sucks. I had a maglite that was more durable on a 12 g. Not to mention i went though two of these aimpoints, quick too. So it wasnt a fluke. If you want a "cheap'er" light get a streamlight tlr3 but i wouldnt recommend anything less.

It does. I used just a tiny dab of locktite ont the crews nd it hold very well. Mine is on a 12ga and it actually holds up to the recoil unlike a lot of other optics in this price range

Don't know. Mine lasted fewer than 60 rounds before the front casing severed completely spilling parts and batteries all over the range. It definately wasn't up to any recoil. I wasn't even using it for those 60 because every shot caused it to change point of aim. Sadly I wasn't to the range to learn in time to send it back. Don't be a fool like I was...

I would say yes!! I have mine mounted on a Vepr 12 semi auto shotgun and it handles the recoil just fine. I believe if you go to muellers web site it states designed for heavy recoil?
