NcStar isn't really understood for high quality scopes; rather, they're understood for economical items. I've even dropped the scope a couple of times, by mishap, and the scope has actually held absolutely no and stayed simply as crisp and clear as when I initially unpacked the scope.

This is a great little scope for the price, however it has some downsides. The focus isn't really as excellent as it ought to be, and the scope does not featured rings for installing on your rifle or crossbow. Still, for the price, you get a sensible scope for flashing as far as 100-150 backyards or crossbow searching at any variety.
