The scope\u2019s reticle features some markings that could be conceivably used to estimate range, but the instructions don\u2019t explain how to use it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Everything appeared to be otherwise in order, so I slapped everything on a 10\/22 (ammo shortage, remember), and headed down to the range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>At the Range<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Mounting the entire contraption on a 10\/22 looks ridiculous.

Adjustments are in \u00bc MOA increments, and the clicks are reasonably audible and tactile. The scope magnification is adjusted using a dial in the usual place, and the dial even features a small raised knob for easier turning. Finally, the reticle can be illuminated in either red or green, and the 1-5 brightness settings can be adjusted with a dial on top of the ocular lens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The turrets move the reticle accurately enough for easy sighting in, but I wouldn\u2019t use it to dial drops at long distance. I tried dialing about 40 MOA in elevation, and the bullet landed about four inches below where it should have been. Dialing another 40 MOA, the bullet landed about 11 inches below where it should have been.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To its credit, the scope did return to zero, so there\u2019s that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"606\" title=\" For a \u201cRange-Finding\u201d 4-12x Scope, Red Dot, and Laser?!

But I wasn\u2019t finished.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In my experience, there are few things more destructive in this world than a 5-year-old boy. Grenades and nuclear bombs are scary and all, but if you really want to destroy something, give it to a 5-year-old boy for five minutes and tell him to \u201cbe careful.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I happen to have a 5-year-old son, so in a true test of the Pinty scope\u2019s durability, I gave it to him and got out my camera. The results, below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>We started with some muddy grass, got more serious on the concrete, and finally dunked the scope in a pond and pulled it out with a string. My boy was ecstatic to finally break something and not get in trouble, and I got a good sense of this scope\u2019s capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I removed the laser and the red dot since I\u2019d already tested the same red dot previously. (UPDATE: The laser broke several weeks later after I accidentally dropped it on some concrete.) Once again, I was pleasantly surprised with the scope\u2019s performance. It passed the grass and gravel tests with flying colors. No discernable damage beyond a little mud and the scope\u2019s functions worked perfectly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The concrete inflicted more aesthetic damage, and I\u2019m not convinced it would have survived another toss. But everything appeared to work, and I didn\u2019t see any cracks in either lens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"674\" title=\" For a \u201cRange-Finding\u201d 4-12x Scope, Red Dot, and Laser?!

The product description says the scope is \u201cwaterproof,\u201d which could be easily interpreted to mean, \u201cwaterproof.\u201d Apparently, this is not the case. \u201cAudrey\u201d told me the scope is only made to protect from \u201cspills, splashes, or rain,\u201d not total submersion in water. After two dunks in the pond, water had clearly penetrated into the lenses, and I could see droplets when I looked through the scope.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I dried the scope out for a few days, and the water droplets disappeared. I was also impressed to see that the reticle illumination still functioned properly. I\u2019m not sure if those electronics could survive many more submersions, but I know they can survive at least two.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>By the end of my testing, I still had a functioning scope that, when mounted again to my 10\/22, returned to its point of aim and allowed me to continue hitting targets. For $99, I call that a success. Would I put it on a hunting rifle? Given the sub-par glass quality and questionable waterproofness, probably not. Would I put it on a competition rifle? Given the terrible reticle tracking, that\u2019s a hard pass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But would I put it on my son\u2019s (future) AR-15 as a cheap option for range-plinking? For sure. The three-sided Picatinny rail is ridiculous, and the full setup is almost totally unnecessary for any practical purposes. But it works as advertised (range-finding excepted), and it\u2019ll survive the occasional drop or sudden rain shower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The American flag on Pinty\u2019s website shouldn\u2019t fool you\u2014these scopes are made in China. But they could still play a role in your gun safe. Not an important role, but something you can use and abuse and not worry too much if it ends up at the bottom of a pond.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"618\" title=\" For a \u201cRange-Finding\u201d 4-12x Scope, Red Dot, and Laser?!
