    Out of all the cheaper brands of optics I'd say they are the best

    I just got one of their red dot sights for my .22, seems good so far.

    I own two Konus scopes, both are well made and nice clear glass. Both have kept their zero through multiple heavy knocks and decent recoil. The only downside is their are heavy.

    ^ Exactly. The only downside is the weight. My Konus bino weight is almost 800g. Good choice if you want your rifle a little heavy for the recoil though

    I have a Konus spotting scope.
    Bought it after write up in NZHunter on spotting scopes.
    They did comparison on price quality etc.
    Recommended Konus in the price range.
    I just wanted one to save a walk to and from target.
    For what I paid it is as NZHunter said ok for the money.

    Had one on an AR, once zeroed it never needed adjustment, after hundreds of rounds. I was surprised it was as good as it turned out to be.
