- Is the $17.00 Sonic King 3-9x40 AO scope the best cheap scope? I run it through its paces on both 22 and ar15 rifles to find out. If you hurry you can get this scope for $17. See in the comment section for details.

Get your Sonicking scope here on Amazon amzn.to/2L81WHl If you use the discount code DYWI4BN8 on checkout plus the $5 coupon on the product page you can get this scope for $17 right now!
Just ordered one as well! Hope it works out. I see they have other items under the sonicking brand name such as a bipod.
Funny you mention that. I"m testing cheap bipods right now for a video. They're not the sonicking brand but probably all built in the same factory in Shenzhen China.
DEUCE AND GUNS when do you think your bipod video might be posted? Do you have a low cost bipod that you already recommend? Thanks for your videos and your help.
Coupon expired
Apparently that discount code only lasted a day. It's not working now. It says it expired. I guess I should watch the Deuce And Guns videos more promptly.
Awesome test l purchased one for my son's 10/22 can't beat it, thanxs for sharing!!! :-)

This barreled upper has gotten great reviews here on UA-cam.
Just thought you and the " BC Buddies " would like to know.
This is the first I have seen your channel and I was drawn to it by the review done by Wranglerstar. I found your review straight forward and fair. I subscribed!
Always enjoy your reviews, keep'em coming 👍👍
I just purchased it through your link and followed directions as they came up the total was $16.27 so hopefully they send me the same scope that you got lol great video/review God bless
Never seen or heard of your channel till today. Enjoyed it, great video.
Glad you liked the video and thanks for watching.
Thanks for the in-depth video it helped a lot.
Good stuff. Good to see another Math and Science geek into guns and outdoors. I liked your rig...
I've got 6-24x50 scopes from Pinty and OTW from Amazon on my Savage 22's and they are quite nice. Clear glass and nice features.
Well done review thank you.
I bought this I'm happy I watched this vid it will be good for my pellet gun
Thank You!! For $17 I’ll give it a Go!
$16.27 is worth a shot. Thank you for the hook up. Looks like this may be my new squirrel scope.
December 2019, $26.99 on Amazon. I just purchased two of them. Great video thanks for the review.
Ed Musick how are they doing two months later? They’re currently at $39.99 on amazon.
Glad I bought mine when I did. I just went back to Amazon to pick up another one just as a spare and they are no longer available. I paid $17.99 and no shipping (prime) 2 weeks ago. I have it mounted on my 10/22 and it's doing really well (holding zero after 500 rounds).
Yep, looks like they're gone. I'm keeping the link up just incase they come back. It's a perfect fit for the 10/22.
Love the review
Can you show us the same testing with a leopald?
Haha! Bought one for $17 delivery to door included. Actually I used my American Express points, so my final price was $0!
Edit: Arrived on Saturday am! It is the same scope that Deuce demo'd. Best price today on Amazon is $31.99 with the $5 off coupon. I have learned to jump on good deals and this was one. I am going to the range tomorrow to shoot! Whoohoo!
It's been two years...how did that scope hold up?
@@swmiu808 it has done well. I wish it had the reticle hash marks for distance. But for $17, I am not complaining. Actually I bought six or seven of these and gave some away as presents and Mounted a couple other ones on my older rifles. It was a deal
Thanks for replying currently looking for a decent scope...ALOHA
Hi ya, Deuce...just a note here...if those rings are what came with the scope, those are different ones than the rings that came with Wranglerstar's test scope. His test scope had single screws on the tube clamps...Nice video, always enjoy watching!
We tested it on the Taofledermaus channel on a 12 gauge and it did well. The price was only $17.99. As of posting this comment, the video has not yet been posted. Also 22 plinkster tested it. Plinkster actually bought it. He didn't accept their free scope.👍🏻. 🇺🇸😎
Nice! I expecting a bait and switch from them but I bought a second one, now priced at $17, and it's exactly the same thing. I keep wondering if some warehouse was sitting on a ton of really nice glass and needed to unload it before the tariffs hit.
is it a first or second, focal plane scope?
If you watched 22plinkster youj know this scope is junk.
@@craigmack3361
His issue was likely the rings
I'd like to see a Leopold go through this, dropped on front half of scope on brick. More fair than the last test however. Just always be fair, Reguardless. 👍
i love Vortex and Bushnell but i'l try that scope for fun on one of my .22lr for sure great video
Love that at 4:10 it seemed to become even more accurate after being dropped hahahahaha
Just found your channel and great video, the sound that thing made hitting the ground made me cringe a little so I'd say that was a pretty good durability test haha happy shooting from one TN guy to another. Liked and subscribed
Must better and fair review than wragerstar, well done
Thanks for the vid 👍🏿👍🏿 will definitely follow link and directions
looked to me like dropping it the 1st time helped it's accuracy
Nice, I liked the music you used.
Very convincing demo and says a lot for the scope... but now on Amazon for $70.00, Thanks..
At that price I'd go with a budget option from a name brand.
Hey Deuce. PSA ( Palmetto State Armory ) has a great item on clearance today.
They have their 16" Barreled Freedom complete Upper including
Bolt Carrier Group and Charging handle
For only $199.00 FREE shipping
It is a flat top upper with A2 front sight post and mid length gas block.
Comes with standard Army hand guards.
All the reviews on this upper are very good.
Dude be careful. I bought that upper I discovered the tapered pins for the front sight were installed backwards so once I got em off it wasn't compatible with an A2 sight tower. Had to put a new barrel on it to make it work. 2nd the front sight post got stuck and could not be adjusted brand new out of the box. I was pissed. I did everything right. That's exactly why it's at such a low price. I still like PSA and will continue to do business, but I will not make that mistake again
I will this my old Marlin 22
That’s pretty durable! I would buy one!
12:23, Great advice. ALSO don’t forget If beyond vender return period... any warranty offered by whoever.... Sonic King? May be honored?
I’m speculating of course....... but it’s $18 on Amazon right now and I’m buying one.
Excellent video...... new subscriber
Good stuff
Nice fair review
Nice scope review. Loved your Seiko 5 watch, Awesome!!
I got a price of only $16.27 using discount and prime. it's going to go on a springer .177 air rifle for shock testing and evaluation.
Tanx 4 da info!👍 😯 🍻
Best inexepensive but good quality and reliable scopes on Amazon IMHO is the Vortex stuff. Amazingly good value for the money
Used to be until they got big and prices went up. Athlon optics is the next up and comer on the block, I own several and am baffled at what you get for your money. My Argos btr 8-34x56( $348 new) keeps pace with scopes twice if not three times it's cost out past 1000 yards.
1000th like. Any advise on a decent cheap scope for a .30-06 bolt gun?
Hey BC, you mentioning the Deuce made a light bulb flash on over my head.

" BC Here: WHO I Ran Over With My Deuce and a Half Today "
Tried on an AK-47 because it's got that double kick usually tears Scopes up unless they're made for it
🇨🇦 Viking Van Man here deuce and a half awesome ! I would like to get a Stewart and Stevenson LMV -1079 with the shop box on it and turn it into an RV . Or a M109 deuce and a half would be cool with shopbox!!
The M109 is the ultimate base for an overland camper project. As long as you're not in a hurry to get to your destination.
Some of the old Bushnells would be tough but when you bumped them the point of impact would change or getting it to move the point of impact was a mess. Did this one show any flaws in trying to zero in on the bulls eye?
It's $30 now oh well. Thanks for the info😀
Thanks. I am going to purchase the Kervan Arms AirBoss
K1 - 0.25. I was told some budget scopes are just as good as expensive scopes anywhere from $100-$200. I don’t know if you agree with this but what’s scope would you recommend for my gun?
One of vortex's best features is their waranty and customer service. I just hope it stays as good over the years. Many companies start out that way and it gets worse as they get bigger.
Vortex is probably the best deal for a mid priced scope.
@@deuceandguns I have one of their daimond series scopes that cost like 200 bucks. I am pretty happy with it. Its on a 22 magnum though so it doesn't see much abuse. I had a set of their binos too and they were nice as well. Just didn't fit my tiny head so I returned them and got some nikons that fit me better. I will be honest, the glass was a little better in the vortex ones as was the build quality.
I'd like to see a tall target test for tracking
I am willing to gamble $17 on it. Your advice has been pretty sound in the past :)
Ok no joke, it showed up today and it is far nicer than a $90 scope I have on my lever gun right now. Very crisp and clear, feels solid and the turrets don't feel mushy when you adjust them. Going to put it on my bolt action .223 and test it out tomorrow.
Hope it works as good as it looks.
It worked out very well! The clarity and overall quality is much nicer than I expected. I still have not quite got it dialed in for my Mossberg MVP but that is my lack of experience with tuning a scope/rifle combo and no fault of the scope or the rifle.
Not bad for under $20! Thanks for the update.
Leupold, Vortex, Bushnell, etc..., do the same thing. They contract out some or all of their production.
True and it tears people up when they relize there $1,000+ leupold glass is made in China just like a $20 tasco ,only difference is it's assembled in the usa lol I don't buy expensive scopes iv never had a problem with any of the cheapest scopes even on my 7mm rem mag or my 300 win mag ,I had a Simmons that was clearer than my friends $600 Nikon at any range we compared them at
got one mounted to my creedmore
my friend does a lot of milsim stuff, gets involved with training with Russian military. and he loves these. but he has to be careful who he lets use them, because full auto on an airsoft gun is horrible to the scope, it wont hold zero on a full auto aeg, but DMR's and bolt action rifles they work awesome.
Great review. You could try that test on a Leopold and they would probably fix it for free.
They probably would. Vortex is supposed to have a good warranty as well but I've never tested it out.
Nice
Very logical. I heard that scopes for break barrel air rifles have to be reinforced to be certified for such a gun due to the double recoil. Have you heard the same thing? Otherwise this might be a cool upgrade for my ruger impact 22. However it is not an accurate gun in the first place and 100 feet is okay but 100 yards would probably not hit the plate.
Looks like a cheap(er) copy of an old UTG/Leapers I have. Infact, I think I still have the box mine came in, and the box looks almost identical... I have the side focus however.
Most people don't believe me when I tell them that 1000$ in glass, 9/10 times isn't really all that necessary, especially if you stay in the lower magnification ranges. the higher the mag, the better glass you want. Good glass is cool, I have a few pieces myself above 1000$, but most of my 'arsenal' is the $300 range, and mostly only because I need certain features, like matching turrets/reticles and no BDC.
I still think probably the best scope under 1000$ if you don't need variable is the 10x SWFA. thing is a tank and glass is amazing for what you pay, and most important of all tracking is spot on.
Could you do some more cheap scope testing? There's a common cheap scope that I wonder if it would take a beating and still do fine. It's the CV life 6-24x50 AOE hunting scope it's only 30 bucks was wondering the torture it could take. Thanks
Interesting. I needed a 3-9 for my 22 and was looking at a cheapo at Wally Mart, but I really wasn't happy with the price/quality. Understanding the warning about YMMV, it seems like a good risk to take. So I bought 2. For $29.59. That is not a typo. :)
That's awesome!
Is any old gear you have that you don't want I'd be willing to pay postage for it because my buddies are getting in the air guns and they wouldn't mind having some old beat up scopes just saying if not this regard great video
Better get one now before more people see these reviews
Wow not bad.
use a springer air gun especially a "magnum" springer... that will test the true mettle of any scope ..
It looks identical to a CVlife which is a so so scope also 4-16X 40 for $40
hell i bought the top of the line 22 scope at cabelas that normally 150 for 50 bucks and its pretty good if you want to throw me 10 bucks for shipping ill take it off my 22 riffle and send it to you for a comparison and you send it back lol its a pretty decent scope
Have you tried the bug buster scope?
I can tell you why they did not print their name on the scope. It would raise the price up. Just my opinion. Yea, the could put stickers on it, but who wants stickers on their scope. Good experiment. Thanks.
Oh, I just looked at my scope, because I got one that came in a box like yours-but not sure . ,but it did cost 36.dollars. Mine says Pinty on it.
Will that scope work on a springer air rifle and do they sell them in the UK,,your info will be very grateful,,great vid
Getting ready to order one for a .22 cal break barrel air rifle..guess ill see if it gets destroyed or not..hope not my springer has destroyed three already. .a 25 dollar barska 3-9×32 has out lasted the other two 100 dollar scopes though...
OK guys......who wants to see BC create a Video Series where he runs over stuff with his Deuce and a Half?
He could start with those flash lights and other things Hunter Ellis and that other guy keep showing in the commercials on TV. I want to see BC run over those things on hard dirt, not soft sand haha.
BC could call the series " As NOT seen on TV ".
Personally I think BC would be awesome as a TV spokesperson.
Hey BC and Hey to BC-ites. I think in the past you mentioned you might want to build a retro AR-15.
If that was not you who said that I blame my brain fart on my Atrial Fibrillation and loss of oxygenated
blood to my brain.
Well anyhow. I have told you about the AR-15A1 project I finished about 2 years ago.
I live on a low disabilty budget so I had to make some compromises. I could not afford then to pay
$250.00 for a correct A1 upper receiver. I compromised and used an Anderson flat top upper
I bought for $65.00 and bought an aluminum carry handle online from China for $15.00 free shipping.
Here is the point to this comment.
WOW!!!!!!! Brownells FINALLY has their ND M-16A1 upper receivers in stock again.
They sell the stripped Upper for $150.00. They also sell the Blem stripped upper for $125.00.
You still need to buy the A1 rear sight assy for $20.00 and the ejection port cover and Tear Drop
Fwd assist. If you are new to Brownells you can sign up for email alerts and you get $10.00 off
and free shipping.
here is the link

They are in stock NOW and I ordered mine last night and Fed ex will be delivering friday.
FREE 2 day delivery.
Oh the link is to the blem. You can pay $25.00 more for a non blem.
Can it sustain the recoil of an magnum Springer Air rifle
Damn it why am I always late to all these events I would've loved to pick that up for $17 whether it was shit or not it could help one of my friends if if I didn't use it
Very interesting and useful video.!!
Actually, we don't need scopes that COST MORE than the rifle.!!!
For fun and informal plinking we don't need Zeyss or Khales or Swarovski (more than $3500.oo US) scopes.!!!
Thanks for posting this interesting video.
God bless NRA,
Long live the Republic.!!!
P
Do you think it would be great on a 22Cal pellet rifle
Good review Deuce! Good to see ya, man. Been missing you on UA-cam.
Have you checked out The Reloaders Network? Come over and check us out.
That scope cost less that 1/10 of the sales tax you'd pay for a NightForce. These days you can pay over $3000.00 for a scope and the truth is.....you'd never abuse THAT scope like you abused the $36.00 cheapie. Considering all the variables including ability, ammo, the firearm, wind etc. that cheapie scope you have is a MARVEL. Your testing experiments were bordering on ridiculous and having said that, look how well the damn thing held up. Would you even considering doing that to a $3000.00 scope? I've seen all kinds of shooters at my range. Some of them have absolute crap for equipment and they shoot like a pro and some of them have custom built, super expensive everything and can't hit the 6" circle at 100 yards. Unless your life depends on your equipment, I would say THAT SCOPE YOU HAVE is fantastic. Maybe your next experiment should be to compare THAT SCOPE with the most expensive scope you can find and use them both on the same rifle with the same ammo and then see what happens? I wonder just how similar the results would be??
Try out the tasco!
Internal fogging means I'm out. Especially when a low end Nikon is only $114 on Amazon.
what song is playing during the first shooting part. it' so familiar but i can't put my finger on it...
Discovery 338 Rifle scopes FFP First Focal Plane 4-16x50 VT-T with Phone Adapter Glass Etched Digital Tactical Reticle
Gonga Deal! 2 for $29.59 (total price with shipping). Thank you!
What about putting this on a 6.5 grendel?
Would this be good on a .22 Breakbarrel air Rifle?
would you recommend this scope on a 308 or a 270?
I gots to get me one of them
Whats the name of the song he used for his first shooting session?
I'm not going to be ridiculous with my rifle or scope so do you think it will be a ok scope for a cheap Walmart 22Cal pellet rifle
I liked your testing more than the abuse that plinkster and wranglerstar did. It's pretty much a given that they are fogproof and shockproof. What none of you do is show the tracking of the reticle. I have an old centerpoint 3-9x40 that holds zero even with my mauser k98k. However after turning all the way up/down and all the way left/right a few times there is a huge deadspot (turrets turn but reticle doesnt move). On the opposite sides the reticle tends to bind up forcing left/right to move as you turn up/down... Tracking is inconsistent. With mildot and ill reticle it found it's home on my new walnut xt-22... If you put a camera on the reticle and show tracking problems, that might show a whole new world of problems. One note though, the body of the soniking is very similar to the centerpoint even the parallax adjuster. People said the centerpoint was great except the ghosting at max zoom. I agree but with a firm cheek rest is not a problem and is bright and clear like a nikon....
What if the temp 0 test it then that hunting conditions.
Of course Amazon Canada doesn't list them at all. Darn it!
Put it on a scar or a g3 if it works through those im sold
Generally the reason they have no markings is because it is simply a generic model. Buy so many and they will print on them whatever you want i.e. Sonic King or even Tasco or any other name you care to think of. I've had 'Tasco' scopes which patently aren't Tasco direct from China and Bushnell is another. Not it the UK in the last few months as they have been brought to task on the abuse of brand names. There are many same spec scopes on eBay UK with various different names. I understand why you are wary as what they should have done was have Amazon send you one off the shelf.
Thank you so much. I just watched a review from different guy and he made me sick to my stomach. He tortured the scope like no tomorrow. And he didnt say one good word even b 4 he open the box. He was so biased and shity. But u sounds fair. Yes I already have the same scope for 2 month now. On my Remington .308 .it is great great scope for deer hunting and hog hunting. For 36 $ that's bad ass. Cheaper than the scope mount by itself. Almost.
Most of the guys on UA-cam are good dudes in general but have gotten biased from receiving free stuff from companies and have forgotten what things actually cost. After this review I bought a second scope with my own money because I know a deal when I see it and still value a dollar. Thanks for watching and I appreciate the comment.
Is it just me or did the grouping get smaller after the first drop test? :D lol
Ya. Tighter group👍
Bolt it on a magnum Springer air rifle
It not available any more so I know any other scope cheap and good by any chance?
👍
Do you think this would be good with a 243 rifle at say 100 yards usual shots
It should handle the recoil just fine. Mine has handled a few hundred rounds from a 7.62x39 chambered ar15.
Thanks for the help been trying to find a scope bit don't have a budget for it. This may be an option
You need to have a control too.
I don't see how theres any worth while here especially for a scope with no name! I recently found a brand that s as good as a 200 dollar scope for 100. And i did some comparing and was blown away!
