Rimfire rifle scope

[drmitchgibson]

My older daughter isn't having such a great time with the peep sights. She picked out a Crickett rifle because it was short, light, and very comfortable to handle. I'd like to get her a scope or optic, because hitting targets is fun and missing targets sucks ass. That said, I'm not interested in dropping a lot of dollars on a $100 rifle. Any suggestions? I don't have a scope base picked out yet, either.

Get an inexpensive red dot. Fun and uncomplicated.

I'd get a Swarovski for her. She deserves the best.

Ausin (spiff) was selling one not too long ago

Sorry, that one went to another junior.

It was "Bresser" or something like that, correct?

Bresser makes nice inexpensive optics...they also make optics for a few other brands.
I just zeroed my Bresser micro red dot today. Seems good enough for my purposes.
But the LaRue mount costs way more than the optic;-)

Im loving it! It's on a .22!

I recently bought the Simmons .22 mag. 3-9x32 I believe. its a great little scope. only $42 on amazon.

What about one of the $30 3-9x Bushnell scopes that Walmart sells? They come with rings though I don't know if they'd work with the Crickett. I think it'd be fine for your purpose. I have one I'd give you but I'm not sure what match I'd see you at next.

just bought two of these for my kids. haven't actually shot with em yet but they seem to be just fine for some sunday plinking. mounted one on a ruger 10/22 and the other on a mossberg plinkster.

I picked up a Tasco 3-9x32 for $35, for a .22. Not worth $5.
