Objective Lens

All red dot sights have an objective lens at the front of the unit that is positioned off axis and appears to be tilted when looking at the sight. This angle of the front lens
allows the light generated by the LED projector inside the unit to be reflected back through the rear lens. The reflected light becomes the “dot” or aiming reference that the user sees when a red dot sight is switched on.

When first installing the sight, the clamp too tight such that the handle cannot be locked. may be you must adjust clamp bolt for a proper fit:
1) There is one Torx socket at the end of clamp adjusting bolt on the side of the mount. (See Fig 4-2) Before installation, loosen the bolt to release clamp using included Torx wrench.
