Hello,

I'm thinking on buy a scope for my airsoft rifle, it doesn't have any recoil, but I would like that the optics are clear and sharp, and the scope were the lightest possible. I'm thinking on spend arround 60 dollar. There are the options that I see:

Someone knows these scopes. Some opinions about them.

Sorry for my english, I'm from Spain and I have to practise more.

Regards

Sorry again.

If it's ok I would like to make the question in the correct way:

A Simmons Aetec 2.8-10x44 scope for 50 dollars is a worth of it? I read that the olds Aetecs (made in Phillipines) are a good bang for the buck but the newers (Master Series made in China) not are so good. Some opinion?

Specifications:

Magnification2.8x - 10x
Objective / Field of View44mm / 40.0` (12.2m) @ 2.8x at 100 yds.(100m), 11.7` (3.6m) @ 10x at 100 yds.(100m).

Sunshade Tube

No

Mounting Length5.354", (136.0mm)

The other brand that I'm seeing is Vector Optics, I read that the optics are more or less good for the price. I'm considering the Pacer model:

  • Ocular Length: 63mm

  • Length: 310mm (12.2 inch)
  • Weight (net): 370g (13.0 ounce)
  • Eye Relief: 78-95 mm (3.1-3.7 Inch)
  • Field of View (@100yds): 2.4-6.6°
  • Optics Coating: Multi Coated
  • Reticle: Duplex
  • Evaluation Range: ± 30MOA
  • Windage Range: ± 30MOA
  • 25.4mm Tube
  • Shock proof, Water Proof and Fog Proof (Nitrogen Purged)
  • High-durability aluminum alloy in black matt and beautiful complement
  • Feature 1/4" windage and elevation turrets adjustments with audible clicks

I also seeing this other model from Vector:

  • Model: SCOC-04 Buster

  • Objective Lens Dia: 42mm
  • Ocular Lens Dia: 30mm
  • Ocular Length: 45mm

Thank you so much for the answer, I think that I'm going to discard the Simmons option. My rifle doesn't have any recoil but I think that it have serious reliability problems.
