Rip off?

jstep · February 26, 2007, 06:54 PM

I purchased a 5x scope for my new Beretta CX4 Carbine for $189.

I was browsing the web and saw this offer: http://www.berettacx4storm.com/index...d3b0377ce36287

What do you guys think about this product? Sadly I can't return the $189 scope since I already mounted it.

but I prefer used Bushnell Holosight...I think it's the best deal.

Holosight are made by EOTech for Bushnell but comes without the NV mode switch. Side by side, I can't tell the difference b/w EOTech and Holosight.

Used Holo go for around $150 or less if you look around for it.

Usu. newest models are sold for a premium until newer models comes along, and then, their prices suddenly drop.

You purchased a 5x scope and the red dot scope is 1x. They're way different critters. How can you compare the two and think you got ripped off when it's an apples and oranges comparison? Do you think a red dot scope, rings, rail, "Deluxe Tactical Laser", cleaning kit and a tactical flashlight for $149 equates to quality equipment in today's world?
