I just purchased a Tasco Propoint PDP2MO red dot scope with extra tubes and the instructions are really vague about using them. There are two extensions, one called a sunshade and the other a mirage hood. They both are the same exact size, look identical and either one will fit on either side. There is also a polarizing filter that I can use on either side but I'm not sure what the advantages are and which side would be better.

I really could use some advice and opinions on how to best utilize what came with this scope so anyone who has used this Tasco Propoint or any similar scope please reply.

I also posted this under firearms / scopes as I didn't know which one would attract the most forum members that have knowlege on this subject.

Thanks
