i was thinking of getting a clone, can anyone tell me if it's worth it? i was planning on getting a real one, but the price of the clone is attractive. plus i culd buy a whole other gun with the amount i'd spend on a real one.

i heard that all knock-offs ghost from a supplier in hk. is this true? i don;t wanna spend a hundred to find out that i need to spen 400 a minute after i place the clone on my gun.

Well, don't worry, because of an internal design flaw in these current 552s, elevation is not adjustable at all anyway. Whether or not your screw broke has no bearing on the adjustability of the vertical axis. Huang said that wouldn't be an issue in the next batch.

It is where you see the aiming dot and off to the side a bit is a fuzzy dot. Almost a double image but not quite

Well a rectile is either a male dysfunction problem or a scaley cold blooded animal. One you can get in a pet shop and the other you can get pills on the internet to sort out.

Now a Reticle is the pattern inside a scope used to aim with. Dot, crosshairs, ranging, T, etc.

.223 is a caliber, same as the other sizes. Particular calibers will have varying ballistics so you may need a different scope etc. to compensate properly.

Almost any red dot sight is good enough for airsoft, but you do get what you pay for. In the EOTech clones it appears from my digging Hurricane has the best ones and the most expensive.

The .AR223 reticle spoken of is a newer version of the common EOTech reticle A65. The normal version(A65) is a 1moa dot with a 65 moa circle, with hairs at 12 3 6 9 oclock positions. The newer one can be used to judge the climb/fall rate of the .223 caliber by using the lower dots at meter intervals. picture below.
Also the new Aimpoint style D1 recticle (1 Dot models), the XR308 & XR500 recticles are out as well for use with their specific calibers. All listed below
A65
AR223
D1
XR308
XR500
