My gun dealer says anything under $100 is junk waiting to fall apart...and...

My brother got a BSA last year and it was broke before he even had it on the gun...

Good red-dots are almost as expensive as good optics...good depends on how much hunting you do, what type of terrain, durability, and price.

I bought a BSA from Walmart for $30. It was the first one I've ever owned and so far I've had nothing but good luck out of it. I didn't want to spend a lot of money on one until I figured out whether I'd like it or not. If this one breaks, I'll be getting another one because I do like it (a Lot) and I may step up to a higher quality then. Until then, if it aint broke............

If you want to buy the best, get yourself an AIMPOINT. They are by far the best on the market for a Red Dot optical sight!!
