Hey guys, I got mine. The one I recieved
WAS NOT the BDC reticule:
It was this type:
I'm not sure what that crosshair type is called but it is much smaller than the BDC type. I have another older clone with the BDC crosshairs that I have to say on exterior build is much better quality, but the sight sucks compared to the DX one. The DX one that I have has no ghosting at all. Also, the reticule is nice and small compared to the BDC which I prefer.
For exterior problems, the rear window has no antireflective coat (my older clone does) so it is very reflective and you can see your own face in the right lighting. The markings on the elevation and windage controls have a bunch of plastic flash on them but the actual dials are metal. Everything is metal but rubberized. The lock nut has some nice washers on it which my other clone doesn't. The battery compartment bar was a bit bent but I bent it back.
What's really odd though, is that to the naked eye - it looks great (and much better than the BDC types), it does not work through a magnifier at all. Looking through a 4X magnifier, it's just a blob of unfocused red!
Also, I didn't get Sanyo batteries, some wierd China brand. Looks like there's a few variations in what you can get!
To wrap up - externally it's so-so but the actual sight that I received was amazing and beats all the other clones that I have ever personally handled. Super sharp reticule, nice and small as I like it (the BDC ones are almost always too big), no ghosting! This is all great except for the fact that it doesn't work with magnifiers.

This is not the same as Huangs. Externally it's worse quality.
