CenterPoint 3-12x44mm 30mm tube with side focus $88.99 @ wally world

Be carefull with these, they have had numerous returns and complaints. You have been warned...

I have that same scope, love it! I got it as a refurb and have had good luck with it. It works very well for what it is, and the side focus is a big bonus.

wasn't aware of that airshot . are you referring to their stock/standard 1 inch scopes or also their 30mm tube scopes ? did a search here and didn't see anything . FWIU the 30mm PLT is supposed to be decent , but i appreciate more info or a link to learn about info on the PLT 

thanks , jeff

Only with refurbs.

A lot of people have been happy with them--30mm as linked.

Bought a brand new one but never saw it---gave it as a gift.

User is happy, and it has been with him since 2018.

He actually won a match using that scope, lol!

Might be the particular models, the company often adds their cheaper line of scopes as part of a package deal. When I saw the name it rang bells .... They may make better models but the less expensive package deal scopes have very poor reviews. Just be sure you check out any Center Point scope you might have an interest in

Great scope I have 3. Airshot has no clue about what he speaks. This forum is full of misinformation from people who dont own or use the product asked about. What's the point of giving an opinion of something you know absolutely nothing about. If you dont know something just dont respond just to respond. How do we take away accuracy points?

Here is my experience with CenterPoint scopes.

Back in 2009 got 2 of the 4X16 front focus scopes from WallysWorld.

In Jan 2019 got one of the 3X12X44 PTL side focus scopes from WallysWorld on sale for $84.

Also in Jan 2019 got a 4X16X56 side focus with the best looking mil-dot reticle I have ever seen (although turrets are MOA) from AD.

In April 2019 got the 4X16X44 PTL side focus FREE from Crosman. Here is how that happened. The 4X16X56 was supposed to focus to 10 yds. Best it would do was 15 yds. I contacted Crosman and they tested and confirmed this. They sent me the 4X16X44 PTL which will focus to 10 yds and did not want the other one back. Great warranty service.

Never had any problems with any of the scopes. They are still in use.

By far the best glass is on the 3X12X44 PTL. I think it is because of the lower power. It also has a really nice reticle. The one on the 4X16X44 PTL is quite similar but a little too thick for me.

Glass is OK but in bright light red, blue and green colors will show up beside white/bright objects. Glare/flair is not uncommon.

POI will usually move if the power setting is changed, sometimes even if the parallax is adjusted.

Worst are the turret adjustments. They are just not dependable. The scopes do, however, seem to hold zero pretty well once adjusted.

After all that badmouthing I still think they are worth what I paid for them.

Would I pay the current retail prices - NO!

Can't see any reason to spend serious $$$ for a scope on airguns that I don't shoot a lot when these will work. Course that may be why I don't shoot them much LOL.

I would say if you put one on a Thomas it will probably shoot like a Marauder.

Writer must not look at any other forums, while AGN is a great place there are other opinions out there on other forums. As I stated ...it was the name that raised attention, a simple do your research was all I ask!
