This sight does not project a laser dot nor is it a magnifying scope. However, what it does do is good for targets you can see clearly with the naked eye, but can't seem to get a consistent hit. How it works is simple: you look through a crosshair etched on a non-magnifying glass. Place your target in the crosshair and align the laser dot on the center of the crosshair. Now you see the target, crosshair and laser dot. Squeeze off a shot.
If you are varmint shooting this system is good because the critter doesn't see the laser. Also, if you are target shooting on a bright sunny day, the laser doesn't get washed out by the sun.
Although I hated this thing when I first got it, I now appreciate the simplicity and ease of use. Zeroing was a cinch. I tried a laser projected dot type sight on an air pistol and decided this was better.
Caution: You need a rail type mounting system to mount this thing.

This review is from: Daisy Electronic Point Sight (Sports)
It is made by Daisy so if you are buying this for anything other than a BB/Pellet gun you are probably barking up the wrong tree. I bought it for a Crosman 1377 with the adapters. The dovetail is what inexpensive air guns use so it makes sense. Works great for plinking, rodents etc. You are not going to shoot farther than 50 feet or so and it is quite accurate at that distance. This is not a laser sight but a red dot. Once you zero it you keep the red dot on the target and your sight picture adjusts. That means that you don't have to worry about how you aim as you do with normal sights. We use this style of sighting in the military now (better sight of course) and qualification scores went up by 20% or more. Better yet inexperienced firers are much more accurate. Great sight for the money. At $10 even if it breaks after a year you are still in good shape and who takes great care of pellet pistols and rifles???
