Mantis 3-9x32 AO

Pros
Seems to be a well made scope. Was easy to put on my air gun. I like how you can adjust the wind-age and elevation. Have shot my gun with scope about 12 times and like it so far.

I put this on my Hatsan Flash QE with tall rings to get over my magazine. The gun sighted in great and is holding center just fine through the first 10 magazines. I’m drilling squirrels in the head at 40-50 yards. For the money I’m not sure you can do much better for an entry level scope. The only thing I haven’t loved is the lack of haptic feedback when adjusting the windage and elevation. The clicks are very muted and it’s tough to feel each click. Not a huge deal but it’s the only negative I’ve got.

Pros
Affordable and accurate

Cons
Nothing yet

Great scope for then price and easy to zero.

Waited to review until I had used it for a while. I shoot this combo daily and have a lot of fun with it. Keep in mind that the Flash has almost no recoil, so I can't speak to how it would handle a heavy duty springer, but the advertising says its good for those as well. Can't beat the price and quality, holds zero nicely, nice clear glass and good reticle with a few dots you can use for basic hold over, etc. Only thing I think is not quite perfect is that the magnification doesn't seem to be very strong, I have other 3-9x32 scopes that bring the target a bit closer. Not an issue though, its a great scope, every time I pick it up its comfortable, familiar and does good work.

Pros
-Nice fit and finish, very good looking scope -Nice clear glass -Good reticle, could be a smidge finer but that's probably just me -Adjustable objective (fine tuning for your eyesight) -Parallax adjustment keeps things from getting wonky -They don't send crappy rings...they don't send any rings at all, lol. Give the UTG mount a look, it also comes with a stop pin if you need it and its rock solid. -You really can't ask for more at this price.

Cons
-Magnification seems to be a little less than the advertised 9x -Magnification and parallax rings are ever so slightly stiff, but that might mean a very good seal from the elements

Bought this to go on the 850 carbine I got for my wife. Since it's a co2 with virtually no kick,I figured the scope should last a while. We shall see. Meanwhile,it has been a pleasant surprise,a decent quality that will get her used to scope shooting with out breaking the bank. Just right for this gun and a new shooter.

Pros
price is right,looks good,easy to work.

Cons
so far,none

I recently mounted this scope/two piece Leaper rings on a powerful Vortek upgrade springer.177 This gun is a scope destorer,we shall see.I will complete accuracy,balistic tests,fps,fpe,max poa,pellet drop out to 40yds.Five or six different pellets to test. Scope is simple and I bought it because it has just the adjustments I like,very clear sight picture for me ,.I hope it stays true!

I mounted this on my Maximus and I love it. Very clear optics, crystal clear mil dot reticle and target turrets for windage and elevation.

Pros
Great price, great performance and very easy to use.

Cons
None. This is a great bargain that you won't be disappointed with.

UTG/Leapers have been my go-to scopes since I returned to the airgun hobby last year. In general I find them to be a good value and easy to use. Well, now there's a new scope available, and it has my attention. This is billed as an airgun rated scope, and so far so good. I have it mounted on my Ruger Impact .22, a pretty powerful springer with a strong recoil. No problems. Using the built-in rail on the Ruger, the eye relief for me was perfect centered on the rail. I used higher than normal rings because I wanted visual clearance on the fixed sights on the rifle which I didn't want to remove. Rings are not provided with the scope, which is a small cost factor that might have to be considered by some users.

This is an AO scope which provides a clear focus down to 15 feet, a very nice feature. It is also has a 3-9 variable power capability which makes target shooting easier at 15-20 yards, the distance of the indoor range I use. Higher power at short distances becomes blurry, but that seems to be the norm on most scopes I've used. 3-5X at 18 feet is clear, and 7-9X at distance is very nice. The adjustment turrets are firm and accurate, and clearly marked. The reticle is mil-dot, and that's also a great feature when shooting outdoors. I'm still learning how to use mil dots. That's another thing I like about the hobby; you can learn something every time out. The Mantis provides a nice bright picture especially considering it has a 32mm objective lens. The 40mm must be really nice.

The scope comes with a cleaning cloth, the standard clear/yellow protector lens caps, pretty good instruction papers, and a nice box. As mentioned previously, no rings are included. I used 1" Leapers on mine and I recommend them. This scope deserves a good set of rings. I like my new Mantis a lot and you will too. I will consider the brand very carefully when contemplating my next scope purchase.

Pros
Clear sight picture, variable power, great AO feature, easy to turn AO and reticle adjustments, and good turrets. Durable so far, time will tell. Price is right, actually a bargain compared to some others.

Cons
No rings included.
