I would take one for $100, but they have poor illumination, meh reticle, and tall exposed turrets (not needed on most LPV optics IMO). Much more than a C-note and that money is better off on a more recent optic (Steiner or newer Vortex).
I have the PST GenII 1-6x and it's been great. The first batch of them had faulty illumination (of which I had one), but it was replace and it's a solid, daylight bright dot with a usable reticle and covered turrets, nice FOV and good glass for the price. And not as heavy and have the price of the Razor version.
I just returned a 1-4x20 for reticle issues, for the second time.......... they refunded my money. I went Leupold.. You may have very good service from them.

Which model? The diamondbacks and crossfires are not equal to the pst.

Target turrets make no sense to me on anything under 10x.
There are three versions of this scope, 1 MRAD and 2 MOA, one of the MOA versions has capped turrets.
Cabelas just had the MOA version with target turrets on sale for $277. At sub $300 these are not bad.
