It sounds like it came on a rifle he bought.

Re: NC Star 6x24x50 scope
I don't believe so.

some of their stuff can be used for airsoft yes but I do not know of any airsoft guns that would use 6x24x50 scope

Re: NC Star 6x24x50 scope
Before I knew better I bought an ar 15 combo pack. 3-9 "tactical" Scope, flashlight, green laser, vertical foregrip, and quad rail. All ncstar. This combo turned my ar into an 11 pound boat anchor (just guessing the weight). The scope got replaced by the factory and sold along with the quad rail. Laser died and flashlight was only good enough to give to my kid. The only thing I still have is the vertical grip. It's too heavy to use. I use it to collect dust. I will never buy a product from ncstar again. Good luck bud. Just my advice sell it, if cheap is what you need, look at the tasco world class line of scopes.

Re: NC Star 6x24x50 scope
Ditto on ncstar being crap. I once bought a compact for my Mini and couldn't get it to keep a zero. The scope from my sons bb gun at least held zero and had better glass, it was a powerline or some crap like that. Never again will I own anything with ncstar on it.

Re: NC Star 6x24x50 scope
Mehh im looking for a scope to go for my savage 110 ba something like a sightron , it would be an insult to slap something like ncstar on it. As for lasers and lights I go with Barska, made off with a 5 mw green laser and a 210 lumen flashlight with tactical grip for around $130 bucks during black friday sales.

Re: NC Star 6x24x50 scope
Rip off the NC Star bull shit and just throw that turd in the trash. Forget Sightron and every other POS $150 scope you know of and prepare yourself to spend at least $600 on a scope.
Once you complete those steps let us know and we'll assist you further.

Re: NC Star 6x24x50 scope
NorthernBorn I agree on ncstar but considering it basically free I wont complain.As for the Sightron I have included a link of the Sightron scopes ranging from $100-$1300 with 4-5 star reviews. http://www.midwayusa.com/find?dimensioni...CFaI-MgodshYAFg
I'm sure all those people just left good reviews for no reason.

There is a subforum near the top of the list called Sniper's Hide Rifle Scopes. I <span style="font-weight: bold">HIGHLY</span> suggest you head into there and start reading.
Oh and if you are satisfied with the reviews left by random hilljacks on Midway's review section why are you asking the question here?

Re: NC Star 6x24x50 scope
I don't believe you can read in the first place, I simply asked a question about a turret on the side of a scope I received for free on a rifle I bought. I just mentioned a sightron and you stated ncstar and sightron is a pos so therefore Im simply pointing out that your statement is an opinion.

Re: NC Star 6x24x50 scope
Keep the ncstar, buy a barska, trade into a huskemaw, and save up for a countersniper. Once you have all for shoe goo them together making the best optic on the planet called a huskemarskastar

Give the guy a break. Yes, the scope sucks but it's what he has. Stop with the BS. He will do his research and deal with his budget.
edited to add, I've seen $500 Sightron scopes hold their zero and track like an indian. They're not my first choice overall but if I only had $600 to spend I could be confident in it.
