RDS-22 2MOA Red Dot Sight with Riser Mount

I mounted a pair of these on my Ruger Mark III Target handguns. For the price they are a very functional, quality product. I’ve not had any issues zeroing the product, holding zero or failure to function in any way. I’ve used other more expensive red dot sights and find these to have more options and work just as well. Adjustments worked as needed to obtain the proper sight alignment and the battery compartment easily accessible.

Optic packaging seems to be of less quality than how Feyachi package their off-set flashlight (Feyachi FL11), which is curious or they have that much confidence of the durability of this unit. You decide. Package contents include: Optic Unit P-rail Riser Block Separate rubber-band style dust cover. This optic does not have attached flip-up style covers. Cleaning cloth EXTRA Battery (for when you forget to turn this unit off after utilizing) Instructions Pamphlet (that you will probably not need for anything other than dialing this unit in at the range) Torx and Allen key for mounting and adjusting. end. Overall construction appears durable and solid. Mine had a small chip out of the black coating by the battery/case/on-off dial as seen in the photos but nothing that impacted overall functionality or aesthetic. Mounting process was intuitive and took a couple of minutes to mate the optic to the riser block and then to the P-rail. For this particular review, I paired the Feyachi RDS-22 optic with a Tacticon Falcon V1 Magnifier and they paired quite well with the magnifier unit having its riser shim installed. See photos for alignment. Figured budget with budget for an apples to apples comparison as someone out there might use that combo for their budget build. Red Dot settings are clear and bright considering the price/value realm that we are dealing with. Again, for a budget build, this optic would be tough to beat. As others have mentioned, there is a manufacturing item that creates a strange "bump"at the 5 0-clock position inside of the rear lens. It DOES NOT impair the line of sight or functionality of this unit. Simply some side-effect of the build process. I cannot say what it is or if it can be corrected next build cycle OR if it has any long-term impacts. In short, this red dot optic functions as intended for a great price point out of the box. Clear line-of-sight with an off-set flashlight. Partially questionable packaging. Some noted manufacturing items (2) that do not impact functionality and are just fine tuning for future build cycles. For a budget build or knock-around weapon you could buy multiple of this unit and get the same end-result as much, much more expensive optics. Note: To clarify two points before I end up answering a bunch of buyer questions...: The pic of the optic and yellow background with the red dot illuminated has a red slash through the lens created by the Camera Flash...not something to do with the Feyachi unit. Next, the pic of the mounted optic with the red dot and yellow background...the red dot is off-center due to the angle of the camera. The red dot is centered as with just about every red dot optic out there. It also easily clears the flashlight mounted canted to the right.

Really love this red dot (it's a clone of a TRS-25 in external form factor), but the battery life is nowhere near as long as the brand name item. I have to replace the battery about once a week at setting 5 (of 11), which is somewhat less than I'd like, but it's also about half the cost of the competition. Other than that, it's been really nice. Clear class, emitter/dot is sharp, it's accurate, turrets are clicky and positive, and battery/brightness changes are a snap. It also fits the same flip-up covers that go on the brand name item, so you can replace the included bikini-style scope cover if you want.

I bought the optic for my airsoft M4 when I realized that I could not use my iron sights with my mask on. So, I looked around online, and soon found this as one of the cheapest optics out there. When I bought it, I was slightly suspicious, given that similar products sell for over 50 or even 70 USD. However, the sight not only proved my suspicions misplaced, but also was way better than I had dared hope. It was easy to install onto my M4 platform, and the 20 light settings guaranteed the dot's visibility in all environments. This optic has made target acquisition much easier in the heat of battle, and I can't wait to use it more. I would highly recommend this product for any airsoft or firearms enthusiast who is looking for great quality at a great price.

Obviously, with the price point there was a certain stereotype that came with this red dot. It came in a plain black box but was neatly packaged in styrofoam. There was a small pamphlet with directions, a lens wipe, and two allen wrenches (one hex and one torx). Everything had a tight cutout in the styrofoam and came undamaged. The weight of the Red Dot was typical to the others in its class and felt more robust than anticipated. Considering the optic was only $50, we had little faith in its capability, but they sent it to us and by golly we were going to review it. As you can see in our video review we put it through a few rounds, zeroed the little guy and then commenced with playing with it. Attaching it was simple, but our first issue reared it’s ugly head and we thought it was the first failure of many. The hex screw stripped when tightened and it just made the entire process just a little annoying. However, it went on the weapon and functioned just fine. Zeroing was super easy, just take the covers off and get a flat head and turn in the desired direction. Took about 9 rounds to zero and we were in business. From our video you can see that we threw it around, dropped it on itself, and literally beat it and to our surprise, the optic not only continued to function, but it also held its zero!!! We were pleasantly surprised at this little guy’s performance. We put about 1,000 rounds through it and there were no issues. We will continue to review this little guy with more rounds and update this review as we progress. However, if you’re on the fence about getting this red dot, go ahead and get it. It’s affordable, but by no means is it cheap. This is and actual red dot and can hold a zero for a 5.56. It’s absolutely well worth the money and it won’t disappoint.

I’ll cut straight to the point, this is a Bushnell trophy TRS 25 red dot rifle scope clone. The real deal is only about $20 more currently. I have no experience with this particular Bushnell optic, and I was looking to save a bit so I rolled the dice and purchased this one instead. For the money, it’s definitely not bad. I have yet to test it out on the rifle, so I couldn’t tell you if it holds zero or not, however, it feels relatively sturdy once attached. It came in a decent little plastic box with foam inserts that can be reused for other small items, a lens, cleaning cloth, a rubber cover that feels like the straps will probably break off soon, and a small tool kit for installing and adjusting. My biggest gripe is the Torx head hardware and tools are absolute junk. The tool is very soft as is the hardware, and I will be replacing that as soon as I get to the hardware store. Overall, I’m not terribly disappointed, but for only a few dollars more you do get the namebrand and quite likely much better hardware with it. The true test will be on range day as well as long term durability, but at $40, the price was decent. If hardware was improved, I would rate this much higher as a better value for the price, but having to replace that hardware with a higher quality bolt is counterintuitive to the savings at this stage. The tool may as well be left out entirely as its complete garbage and nearly stripped on the first use, so don’t bother with it, just bit proper tools if you plan on modifying your firearms.

the attachment clamps will not tighten onto a air rifle. my 177 cal and 22 cal air rifle attachment point both are two narrow for this wide scope to mount to. scope mount is about 9/16"...air rifle mount is about 5/16" and scope mounts cannot clamp down that far. but it sure sems like a fantastic red dot; going to look for one that fits air rifles...i just returned BOTH scopes in ONE BOX TOGETHER and amazon is busy texting me and saying they will refund the ONE item...i realize they dont yet KNOW that BOTH scopes are in the one box; however the chat will not even ALLOW me to tell them this FACT. it just rattles out that it received the BOXED item and will issue refund for ONE scope...it does NOT even open any window and allow me to SAY [text] anything...now i must go thru the hassle of trying to CALL amazon, which is ALWAYS a nightmare getting past a mechanical robot voice to a real person. ugh!

I was very excited about this red dot. My first impression was that it was built sturdy and with great quality components. It was also quite easy to zero in and it was perfectly accurate and clear until it failed. The front lense shifted out position in the hub. I immediately noticed the failure and stopped using it, but I'm sure that had I continued to shoot, it would have likely fallen out completely. I am returning it and asking for a refund. I used it once.
