User feedback? Experience positive or negative?

I've found a killlllller deal on one. Wasn't really in the market for one,  but don't know if I can pass it up.

Talk me into, or out of this thing!

I've had the previous version of it (tritium illumination) mounted on a FAL for the past fifteen years.

It's excessively heavy.  Other than that, it works great.

Yeah I read some reviews saying it lost zero frequently from a couple sources. But everyone else says it is a tank.

Like GySgt above I have one mounted on a FAL and I agree with him that it is a bit on the heavy size but otherwise it is a great scope.

Very clear glass, fantastic eye relief and the .308 BDC is very accurate for 147 gr NATO spec ammo.

It is built like a tank.

If weight is not a killer for you and you can get one for a good price then they are GTG.

I had the C79 version, it was a little heavy but the glass was terrific.
