This is the scope I use on my BCA 5.56 rifle, and it refuses to let go of zero. Man, this thing has taken a lot of abuse, drops, rapid fire mag dumps, and it's still dialed in like a mf. Will continue to grab more monstrum scopes for my next builds.
Dude can you please tell me where I can change the battery. Because I literally can’t find where it’s at
It's in the spot where you insert the Glock magazine. I hope that helps.
@@enlightenedsniper7385generally the battery is under a screw cap that's right on the illumination switch. Refer to the manual otherwise.
I did a review of the 1-6 and the 3-12 Monstum scopes, LOVE them such great value for a high end product. It just goes to show that most of the time we pay for the name not the quality.
Now this is more like my realistic budget, wife and two college aged daughters, you know I ain't got nothing but fuzzy lint in my pocket. Thanks for the review.
Charles Miller did a ton of research on this scope. Basically, practical on the end for a family guy who wants to complete an at build without spending 1000 dollars on a second focal plane scope that will be obsolete soon. I’m sold! Love it on my ar. Great for hunting hogs also! Scope worked perfectly.
Why don't you try saving money, my girlfriends son saved 300 dollars, maybe you should be more responsible.

@@charlesmiller6826 my answer at interviews when people ask how much do i expect to get paid has ALWAYS been "if this ONE job dont pay my bills and let me save money, than im working for the wrong people".
YES. Please keep doing these. I get so much crap for wanting to buy "budget" scopes and rings from the "buy once, cry once" crowd. Please get a few and do side by side objective databased reviews. Light transmission, clarity, eye relief, tracking. Thank you.
Screw the gatekeepers. They're just mad they already paid more. I've never known the Daily Shooter to bs.
Illuminated first focal plane for under 150 is a crazy good price. Great review, Thanks!
AZ Dean Thanks man
Been waiting for monstrum scope review. Do more like these!
s14duma Will do. Thanks
Just got the Monstrum 1-4 x 20 for my Marlin 444 I've had rifle since 1991 I had Skinner sights for some time now. Finally got the scope I'm good to 200 yards. I never liked the look of a scope on a lever rifle. But now I can hit the target. I don't hunt anymore but I shoot clay pigeons and paper targets occasionally..
I got the exact same scope my girl got me for Christmas I wanted the G2 -6x24x50 but she ordered the wrong one but it’s ok I just put this one on my AR so far it’s pretty nice
These are $119.95 on the Amazon Prime right now. Excellent.
Thank you for doing affordable accessories videos for the AR platform.
Which optic would you prefer out of that 1-4 Monstrum scope or the Bushnell AR 223 scope?
Loved the comment that you have spent more on some scope mounts than for this complete scope kit that includes a mount.
I just got my optic from monstrum & I love it!!! Can't believe I only paid $140 for it!! I totally scored😎👍
Love the small block Chevy back ground !!! 👍🏼😃
Really Nice video and a great AR scope /value. The only thing that is kinda tricky is they have Alpha, Gen 2, and Gen 3, of the same scope, in many cases now, so be very careful when ordering.
I would definitely lap the included scope rings to make sure there is no stress on the aluminum tube when torquing down. Even the best rings on the market need to be lapped.
Bought this scope, full illumination is due to factory battery, changed battery and very bright
Have you been shooting with it ? Just order one too fuck it I’m broke lmao
@@joedirt8271 shot mine for the 1st time today with my AKM. Held zero after 60 rounds. Lots of clicks to get centered lol.
The Daily Shooter; Budget Edition.... Looks good to me, and the wallet!! Thx!
Looks like a great value. Thanks for sharing I had never heard of them before.
nice review. good info as always.
This looks like a good budget option.
I gotta say though i just dont get the FFP configuration on LPVOs or any scope under 10x to 12x or so, especially a 1-4x.
Theres just no way to use the BDC on 1 or 2x and maybe even 3x. its just too small to see.
Most BDCs arent useable until 2.5 to 3x so what you end up with is a 1x to 4x scope. Youll use 1x for CQB using it as a red dot, and then crank to 4x to use the BDC.
Youd be better served with SFP imo.
The FFP reticle is smaller than optimal on 1x and usually larger than optimal on 4x or max mag where as the SFP reticle is the ideal size and stays that size regardless of mag setting. Its perfect for CQB/red dot use and for longer range/BDC use.
I even prefer my PA SFP 1-8x ACSS scope to my PA platinum FFP 1-8x ACSS. scope for these reasons.
I use my SFP on 1x for CQB out to 50 yds or so and crank to 8x for everything else.
I do occasionally set to 3.5x where i have enough mag for precision and a large FOV for run n gun where the flat shooting 5.56 cartridge allows a 300 yd range without need for the BDC anyway. Beyond that i go directly to 8x where the BDC is calibrated and capable from 35 yds to 800 yds and i still have a good useable FOV especially beyond 100 yds. easy peasy.
FFP is all the rage right now in the optics industry and the LPVOs in particular but i think if most users really thought it through, SFP options would serve them better.
SFP is generally less expensive to manufacture and lighter to boot.
Advantage SFP imo.
Finally I read a comment in line with exactly my feelings about it and for exactly the same reasons. Its good to hear this from someone who is basing it on experience not just logicike I am since I am new to lpvo . Ive been wrestling with this idea sincd I amookjng to purchase my first lpvo and though I hear all this current praise for first focal plane in my logic i can't see the benefit for lower magnification where the reticle is to small to use anyway and the 5.56 is so flat shooting out to perhaps 300 yrds. Exactly what Ive just heard you point out. Without experience, ive been thinking maybe useful for 8x and up and not much use in 6x or less whiich is what im considering. But your experience says even at 1- 8 or 1-10 its not a lot of use for most of tfe range . Thanks for your thoughts on this. I think a 1x6 SFP will serve me just as well and savd me a few bucks too.
good seeing you the other day. glad you are feeling better. keep up the good work.
It holds ZERO??? the most important question than the price
I have the sfp one and i torture tested it and it held zero
@@bplotts1 thanks for the answer
So it would prob hold up to a 450.
I like the medium to high end gear reviews. That scope is cheap enough for anyone interested to buy it and do their own review.
To some people $150 is alot of money. Not everyone is as blessed as you. I'm sure he will take your orders tho and follow them to a T. We all know you are the most important sub he has.
This is a scope that needs to be banged around some so see if it holds zero, for me that’s one of the biggest worries with a cheap scope, that with a little action it may lose zero, if it’s waterproof and holds zero and is fairly robust, I’m happy.
Seems like a great optic for the money! Hope to see you at shot brother!
Was just about to order from Amazon . But watched this vid first . Now I’m gonna order it 👍🏽lol
Have one of these on my Benjamin Armada, affordable and holds a fantastic zero. Was able to two-shot zero the optic and hold dead bull at 50 yards sub 1 moa with an air rifle.
March 22nd 2021. Monstrum has them for $139 on sale from $169 in black. I have my CMMG 17" Resolute 22lr upper coming and this scope is going to go on top of it. Everything I have seen and heard about these scopes has been good. For a 22.. I think it is an easy choice.
Friday December 1st 2023 and I just ordered the monstrum banshee 1 - 10 x 24 for a grand total of $159.
🔥🔥🔥
In my feed it said this scope was under $15. I have more confidence in it now but will have to save more ducats.
Monstrum makes some solid scope rings IMO I always hone scope rings before using them however I don't see Monstrum rings being all that out of round and you need a little change for clamping force. For the cost I don't see any reason to not use Monstrum mounts on an expensive rifle as long as everything is honed and the screws are given some good Loctite. I do like that reticle, honestly I prefer higher magnification but I did just buy a Northtac 1-4x24 LPVO and it was a killer deal but the Monstrum reticle seems better for close in. I slapped that Northtac on my extremely lightweight Pro2A 18" .350 Legend AR-15 it blows my mind how light that rifle is even with a fairly heavy barrel. I expect a 4x is plemty for a cartridge like the .350 Legend that isn't all that effective for hunting beyond 150 yards.
Thanks for the education, William.
Monstrum used to have even lower costs, it was ~4-5 months ago when they jumped costs. Almost 60%. Must be due to growing popularity or demand.
December 1st 2023 I just ordered the banshee 1 - 10x 24 for $159 shipped. That's pretty damn cheap compared to everybody else.
Great!! All the other channels seem to be only reviewing all the Rich Man's toys lately! It's cool, I guess, that us watching their videos have made them enough coin (or freebies) to obtain such things. But at the same time, sometimes it just feels as if they are reviewing the things us working stiffs can't afford, but THEY can now.
best 270 bucks I spent last year was a vortex strike eagle 1-8x24 with non qd mount. Lifetime warranty and pretty decent glass. Not to knock this product but a one year warranty just isnt sufficient these days. Buy once cry once.
Commander Osis I cry myself to sleep every night 😭😭😭😭
Rubicon V I'm sorry bud. I promise if you get good gear you will be much happier 😀
Rubicon V here's a good quite for ya: “The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.”. often attributed to Benjamin Franklin
The one year warranty killed the deal price for me too. I would rather pay twice as much and get a lifetime warranty. I do understand, not everybody wants to do that though.
James Vaughn shooting is expensive and honestly glass has never been cheaper than it is today. we live in a golden age of private firearms ownership in terms of availability and technology. that said you're better off getting a good warranty for optics. they're very sensitive and have a lot of small moving parts.
Thanks I’ve been looking at the ffp scopes and at first I don’t want to drop a lot of money especially when money is tight.
Hi and thanks for all the vids. I really like this idea of yours, to review the budget optics, since for the most part, all there are out there, are very amatuer reviews, in that category... One suggestion/request is to focus in on how well it holds zero after X amount of rounds, etc and also, how hard was it to zero (ie: turret tracking) Of course, were not expecting "box" quality tracking out of budget optics but I do recall having a moving zero, which felt like the turrets, on a 3-9x Monstrum, but it was manageable. Thx again
I have a Tasco scope on my .308 Remington 783. It is a tack driver with this scope up to the maximum range of 300 yards at my Range. Don't understand the snobbery aimed at Tasco scopes being kiddie toys. Mine isn't. I also have a tacfire on my Swedish Mauser M96 in 6.5x55 Swedish. Anther tac driver at 300yds. Might could be the shooter as I was British Army trained marksman?
And it still makes French fries in 3 not 1 , not 2, but 3 sizes !!! Good review .
Have one on my PSAk47 works great very clear and for the money it's a good deal
Cool review! When you get a chance please review the Sight Mark Wolverine that’s about $150 on Optics Planet!
Truth Agenda Will due. Thanks for the idea
I owned 2 sightmark optic and both of them bombed ..one shut of every few shots ..
1 year warranty? I'll stick with vortex and primary arms. Looks decent tho
If like this scope for my 22 airsoft or things like that. For hunting or anything more serious then a "fun gun" I'll use primary arms. Just me though.
December 1st 2023 and they offer a lifetime warranty on all their scopes now.
Ive had 3 monstrom tactical scopes all of them worked well for trips to the range...i had stiffness on the adjustment but i wanna torcher them a bit and see if it hold up
I think for these kind of scope,the most important thng is eye box coverage,and it seems so small you can't even have a full view with your camera
Nice review. But nodody does shooting reviews of these budget scopes. We may waste $150
It's December 31st 2023 and now there are hundreds available
Nice scope and good info and vid....Good stuff...
Mine fell apart. The red/green light controls started getting sticky after about 2 weeks. The left/ right turret actually unscrewed on me. It never held zero for me. I wouldn't recommend it
The Daily Shooter thanks for some good clean budget gear reviews. Is this a true 1x scope or is it more like a 1.2-4x?
Any chance you might know where one could get a throw lever for this particular scope? Called the # for Monstrum but is redirected to mailbox # that does not match the 888 # dialed. Unable to reach Monstrum.
43mm notched ring. i know its been 2 years but they sell them now lol.
Thanks for the review, affordable... just for me.
Nice scope, I am wondering as well who is the manufacture of the handguard on this video?
Still working good?
Sounds good. We like the more affordable stuff. No need to be a range look at me show off type.
Low power acts like a Red Dot, High power acts like regular scope.
has it held up and is it accurate?
Yeah it held up to the end of his review LOL
Would this work for an AR-10? Or is there something similar with perhaps a 700+ yard vision?
will it handle springer airgun recoil ? forward recoil impluse is similar to that of a SCAR or an FAL and we know those rifles eat scopes for breakfast...
Lol, guess I missed your videos on S&B or Kahles, minox, Nightforce, zco, or are least one alpha scope.
6:47 Is this thing set up for a 200 yd zero, or is there something funky about those numbers on the right that I'm not seeing?
Would you say this could shoot out to 400-500 yards :) if so consider me sold and question could you get low tactical rings for this? I was thinking of weaver tactical low rings
What do you think about the 1-6x??
Tomas Recinos I like the 1-6. I think 1-8 is my favorite however
Those budget optics a alot of time have trouble passing the box test. How did it track?
I did not get any of that it was just the scope. This scope will not hold zero. After discharging a round I had to zero it again, I did this over 20 times after doing so I give up. I had to return it
what rail hand guard is that ? great video !
Not bad at all man. Good stuff
Has this been used and reviewed on .308win? I have an sbr chambered in 308 and looking to switch from red dot to ffp
Do a review on atibal
Thanks for the review. FYI, there is a low-pitched buzzing sound when you talk
Thought that was my tinnitus lol 😆
First focal plane in my opinion is useless on low magnification optics. Your either all the way up or all the way down on this type of scope, reducing the size of the reticle in one 1x just makes your target acquisition a little bit harder. I bought a high dollar ffp 1 x 4 and regret it, I wish I had stuck with second focal plane. First focal plane really is only effective for long range shooting. Which you're not doing with this type of optic.
I like my FFP Bushnell 1-4x AR optics. Actl like Red Dot at low power, scope at 4x..I know hold over at any magnification, as it does not change... Which did you buy?
What? That made zero sense.. Lol
That's literally the exact opposite of true.. Even supersetca went over that in his video of 1x scope VS red dot.. They are literally the exact same speed and acquisition time... Don't spread false information Fudd.
@@ava9oh1282000 I will meet him Half way on his Opinion.. If mine didn't have an Inverted Illuminated Horse Shoe, I would have same Opinion as My Cross hairs are Fine, and damn near disappear at 1X
Totally off topic, but I have to say those are some nice shades in the intro. What brand are they?
its 149.95 on monstrum tactical
What's the name or product number of this optic?? Monstrum has a lot of scopes.
excellent
What do you think about the Atibal scopes?
Found this scope on amazon for under $100 even have FDE options
What is that head off of that was sitting on the table behind the scope.
a good optic for people on a tight budget and you airsoft dudes.
What muzzle brake is on this gun?
Was I the only one who noticed a low hum throughout the video?
Who cares
Do the truglo scp tac 1-4x24
Does it hold a zero and does it track?
Thanks for the video,Like you I also communist state that being New York for me and both California and New York have to deal with the stupid idiotic gun laws.I have owned a couple AR's in the past but everyone that I owned was mainly using flip up sights,I am going to be buying a new AR-15 come mid February and I would like to put a Optic on it.My main use would be for both gun range and self defense if needed.My concern with getting Optic is what should I get for one,At the range I am going to be shooting between 25 yards to 100 yards at the most. I remember watching one of your video's where you where talking about people who have a astigmatism,well for me I wear corrective eye glasses and do suffer from having a astigmatism..could you tell me what would you recommend for a person such as myself get for scope or say a red dot with magnifier? I really do like the red dot for it is illuminated in the view finder as for me it is easier to see then your standard scope reticles..My budget for a new Optic would be between $250.00 and $300.00.. Again Thanks for the video and I am looking forward to see more videos about AR-15 and Optics and how you make them CA compliant..Oh I do know that the CA Gun Laws and NY Gun Laws are pretty close to be the same so we both have to deal with them..
Wish I could even afford this scope. I have a holosun and with astigmatism the dot is terrible and it won't hold zero. I had 2 spinal fusion surgeries and can't work. I need a scope to be able to shoot it for home defense but my luck, I just can't afford anything that is worth anything. Thanks for this review though
Good ol iron sights never fail
lol utibe beggaar
You can't beat iron sights. I mean I grew up using iron sights I'm 44 years old now. I can hit a human-sized Target with my Sig m400 AR-15 with the a2 front sight carry handle rear sight at 600 yards in under 4 seconds. On a good day.
I tell people all the time you know these objects are great but...... If you break it what are you going to do?
I think people should learn on iron sights and keep them as backup if that's an option. Because even though Scopes like this usually don't just break...... It can happen.
I carry a Beretta 92fs everywhere I go. Nothing fancy straight up iron sights right out of the box. It was manufactured in March of 93. I can punch a hole out of a Target at 30 yards with that thing very easily. When I get closer....... Jesus Christ I can about spell my name on the paper.😂
Don't get me wrong though it takes time to get good with whatever you're using as a site set up. There's no doubt about that.
I am looking forward to putting my banshee on my new AR pistol build though. I want to see how good I can get with it. I mean if I can do that with iron sights..... With practice I mean who knows?
Great video. you've got some mic buzz and crackling so check your connections and wiring
What muzzle break do you have on that AR
When your not using the lighted optic is the cross hairs still visible.
So long as it's bright enough and whatever you're aiming at isn't the same color as the crosshair.
Whats the effective range ?
good review. however ffp optics do not "cover more of the target" as magnification increases.
the target and reticle stay the same size in relation to one another. i.e. they both get magnified so they both get larger.
in a sfp optic, only the target grows with magnification increase.
the reticle stays the same size but the target gets larger in relation to the target.
the reticle does cover or occlude more of the target with magnification decrease though because the target gets smaller but the reticle remains the same.
i know it can be confusing to describe but just think like this.
with ffp both target and reticle get magnified.
with sfp only the target gets magnified.
now, alls good until someone creates a 3rd focal plane optic!
wtf?
Scopes are not that expensive to make, idc how clear the glass is or how good the sand is. It's marketing, and why does ffp cost more then sfp?
(Glock trigger enhancement) why did it get taken down? Didn't even get a chance to watch it😡
That will be a perfect optic for my 22
Hay bro youre new video i cant watch . whats up with that ?
What size throw lever fits this scope?
43mm
this or primary arms 1-4×24?
PA for sure
I want to get a scope with zero magnification. All this 1-4 talk is just crazy talk. But that scope is sure puurrrrrdy.
Rubicon V 1 power is no magnification same as your naked eye
@@levi5548 not 100% but damn close
Rubicon V,
Primary Arms - ACSS Cyclops 1X Illuminated. Goes for about $220
I have one question bro,is it made in China?
Isaac Rascon yes
I'd be willing to bet 90 percent of the stuff you own is made in China? So what? If it's quality, it's quality, if it's crap, it's crap, why does it matter where it's made?
Can you ask someone about you controlling the prices?? And then hook us up please?? I know you said you don’t control the prices but you can try! Lol thanks
👍🇺🇸🗽
Great optics, but context. A year + after the video, no bargain. :-(
December 1st 2023 and this company has released many many more Scopes that are incredibly amazing excellent value for the price. Easily comparable to the Sig tango these days.
Can you use this on a .308? 🔫🇺🇸🔫🇺🇸🔫🇺🇸🐢
Finally lol
