Why CQB? Is this scope specifically meant for close quarters? Does it have anything that the UTG 30mm SWAT 3-12X44 does not have?

It is a smaller scope by scale, lighter, and has less magnification. It is a very accurate optic considering the price paid &lt;$80 and I do not believe it meant for strictly close range. It's quite accurate even at 100yds considering the magnification.

I can't comment on the 30mm swat. What I can say is that the 3-9 is not particularly set up for CQB. It is a magnifying rifle scope with all that it implies. Eye relief, alignment, mounting, target acquisition. I bought it with the intention of reaching out to a longer distance than I could with my holo sight but in the end I couldn't reliably hit a target @ 200 yds with the UTG while I could when I re-mounted my holo.

short length...about 2 1/2 -3 inches shorter than normal...it a 3-9, has red and green radical in addition to regular black,...I got it for my Ruger 10/22 takedown, it fits in the case on the rifle where others are to long......in close quarters, I would use a red dot not a scope, but at 100 yards it puts 5 rounds in a 1 inch circle.

it is branded CQB because it can focus as close as 3 yards, which is a lot closer than almost any other air gun scope (most can only focus up to ten yards). the size might also be a secondary reason, but its mainly because of the amount of parallax you can adjust for.

Hello Jacob. I bought the UTG 3-9 x 32 scope for it's compact size which matches the AirForce TaloP pistol I intended to mount it on. I also favor the forward parallax adjusting ring as opposed the "side focus" adjustment on most modern scopes. I liked the scope so much I bought another exactly the same. I have no intention of using it for extremely close range work but is a nice thought. The optics are much better than I expected. Randy

Shorter lengh (206mm vs 282mm), cheaper price tag. This was purchased for Ruger 10/22 Takedown. So I needed short scope to fit in carry bag while attached to the rifle. I now have it attached and if it was any longer it would not have fit the carry bag.

I haven't used this scope on that gun yet but I have used that gun before. That being said, the design of the scope is pretty good considering the price. I have this sited at 100 yards and I have used it through 300 rounds so far and I haven't had to adjust it yet. The dials are solid and can be tightened in place to prevent it from moving during recoil. A side note, do not get this one. You need to find the one that is shorter. This one is waaay to long for the Henry. This measure at something like 16 inch. Check ebay because I don't think amazon has it right now. the shorter one looks like this 12x version: UTG 3-12X44 30mm Compact Scope, AO, 36-color Mil-dot, Rings I haven't used this scope on that gun yet but I have used that gun before.

I have a Leapers (UTG) Bug Buster 3-9x scope on mine and that works quite well balance wise. Runs about $60

I don't care for the cheap scope, actually for such a gun the killing distance being close a scope is really useless. A head shot to a squirrel seems effective at 30 to 40 feet. (.177)

I had this scope on my AR but did not like the look. It functioned fine but for close range more than was needed and not practical. If you only use your AR for longer ranges then I would be fine. Recoil not an issue.

The UTG is Chinese junk. This is a quality scope and the reviews reflect that. I bought two and I own both an Aimpoint M2 and Zeiss scope. However, the UTG mid rise mount is of good quality and I have two of those as well.

On the CQB or home defense side, if you think your life will depend on it you may want to mount a Fastfire III or similar 1x holo sight on the top rail for really short distances, ESPECIALLY in low light. With the 3x magnification it is very difficult to ID, acquire, and aim quickly... even with the CQB reticle. You may be able to, but I can not keep both eyes open with this sight without getting disoriented.

This is an air gun scope. It's one of the most highly recommended scopes for high powered air rifles such as the RWS Diana 34.

I have the 3X9 on a Rock river AR 15 with a 20" Bbl. The scope is sighted in at 200 yards and the BDC works very well. I think it is a great scope for the $$$.

Well it would work great butt and is a good scope but it has pre measured mil dots on recital for .223 ballistics .meaning you don't have to adjust scope for yardage you just use lower dot on cross hairs for determined range of target so your sighted in from 100 to 500 yards without moving elevation on scope. 7.62x39 has a different drop in trajectory thus making mil dots Un affective but if sighted in to your ak at a hundred yard you can adjust elevation on scope to your yardage specifications but yes its a great scope but I would check out other options for 7.62x39 caliber. Hope this helps try maybe a vortex crossfire 2 or weaver kaspa same basic price just set up for open range of calibers.

JJ350, I have a AimPoint with a magnifier on a M-4 platform, works well, but you have to swing the magnifier into place to go from 1X to 3X. I bought the Burris for 3-gun competition and is mounted on Colt 3-gun ready platform. The Burris XTR 1x4 scope comes with a holographic red dot that i mounted on top and good for close targets, for targets 50-200 meters downrange, I get into the scope and I added a speed ring for quick access from 2X to 4X. I can dial it up shooting or running. The glass is very clear and has held up very nicely so far. (6mos) Well worth the money and comes with the mount as well. You mount it, zero it, shoot it.

I'm shooting at a 100 yard outdoor range, so it's not a problem for me at that distance. Can't vouch for beyond that. Most shooters I know use a scope for beyond 100 yards, and a red-dot like Lucid's HD7 for CQC and less than 100 yard engagements.

Personal I use this in my AR-15 and it's primarily a CQB weapon for me. I'd suggest outfitting another weapon for distance and use this site on a CQB weapon.

Yes, defiantly. I actually sent mine back though and got the UTG 30mm SWAT 3-12x44 Compact Mil-dot. Very nice optics. They also have a 4-16x44. The Barska was too big for just a 4-16...in my opinion.

Yes. The Acog is way more accurate than I can shoot. If you are a great shot you will want to check the bullet drop indicators for the ammo you shoot. I zero at 200 yds and that covers my needs. Note: it is one the finest scopes I've ever seen and is indestructible.

It will not withstand a direct hit at close range. If you play any CQB, sooner or later it will be shot out. But at this price, buy 2.
