I have one and like it -- no fiber optics so it's pretty much day use only.

I have one, and will probably regret admitting it, as I saw a guy do a similar post awhile back and was all but burnt at the stake for a multitude of reasons; some of which were-

1) supporting those who rip-off patented products from manufacturers

2) being a "poser"

3) putting airsoft optics on the evil black rifle

With that said, mine holds zero pretty well, crosshairs slightly tilted, no reticle as mentioned in previous post.  I shoot at an indoor range & simply can see what the hell I'm shooting at without some type of magnification.  Previous to this FACOG purchase, I had NEVER used an optical device, always iron sights, & was somewhat nervous about my ability to effectively sight them in.  Therefore, I got my feet wet with minimal expense.  There are other cheap options available (Leuopold, etc) that will be recommended to you in the upcoming posts.  

Personally, I will not buy a second clone now that I am comfortable with the use of the optic.  I currently looking into an EOTECH 552.  

Good luck, and stand by for heavy seas.
