Does anyone have experience with cylee optics?

They seem like really good optics for the money from the tests I've seen done on them and whatnot. What's your guy's opinion on them?

The one on my Ruger MK III 22/45 race gun has worked well for the past three years.

Friend had 2 wolf pros fail within around a year. I don't think the QC is particularly good but since I only have 2 datapoints idk how good.

2 out of 2 certainly isnt good

They’re actually not that bad.

Hard to see how you’d justify buying one when the Vortex Defender series exists. Shit, I’d even take a Holosun over them.

They, technically speaking, are functional optics that will work.
However - they're also about the bottom of the barrel in terms of quality. I wouldn't trust one even on a plinking gun or range toy, and certainly not on a gun I expect to run hard or use to defend myself. Holosun makes some good red dots for excellent prices - the 403R for rifles and the 407c for pistols are about $200 and have held up very well for me. You don't need to shell out $600 for an Aimpoint or Trijicon, but you also shouldn't scrimp on the part that lets you put bullets in the desired spot.

I think you nailed it. Good for the price. It’s hard to say if it would be worth it to you. Everything And anything can break, so running budget gear that I’m not afraid to lose feels better to me. Plus at this stage I’m learning so much about what’s available that I don’t mind failing to “buy once cry once”.
