nope, I play outside all the time. I found it very bad for tunnelvisioning.. but eye relief was also an issue at times.

As for the secondary site, I had it on top, 45 along the main rail and 90 to the main rail and to the main scope, I couldn't get a zero I was satisfied with.

with the 1.25-5x I had it was better to leave it at 2-3x and run it like that near/short/far distances. 3x was enough to see beyond the reliable range of the gun.

In the end I couldn't justify the weight of the scope vs its benefit. Also, it had a way of scaring noobs into thinking the gun could reach out much farther than it actually could, so it was hard to shoot at people lobbing rounds at you from 400 feet thinking they were remotely close. I found it was better to lure them in closer by letting them (and more experienced players) think we were on more equal grounds.

Your individual mileage may vary, but to assume that it wasn't tried or it was being used outside of suitable play conditions is a bit presumptuous.
