YoYo and Sathya,
With respect, please do not go in for DX scopes. Been there, done that. Almost got my glasses knocked out (could have hurt my eyes) when the DX scope and the SX 100 Orion decided to part company with great vigour. Subsequently, the scope lay gathering dust. My son uses it on his Nerf gun now. The recoil of a Nerf is good enough for this scope, especially when bound to the gun with ranger bands. (son is happier with the Orion than the Nerf, anyway!)
Later got some extra moolah, and got an excellent Leapers 3-9X50 scope. Although it has a 2 piece mount, the fit on the Orion is excellent, the scope even has red, green, blue illuminated reticle for low light shooting (although I don't use them so much!). Cost below 10 grand. And yes, I would say it's worth a hundred of the DX stuff!
Cheers!
EssDee
