Specially the “Sig Sauer” (not really made by Sig) ROMEO5 My buddy just got a Sig Sauer MSR . Its a 2moa dot for longer range shots and it has flip up lens covers for cheaper than the romeo 5. Only down side it the 2moa dot needs to be turned up to a higher power setting in daytime . But it has an outside diameter ring around the glass that lights up too to let you know the optic is perfectly level which is bad ass |

The trs25 is an awesome 3moa dot and you can use it on the first power setting cause its 3 moa and pretty bright even in daytime if you got good eyes |

Theyre pretty cool Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75530437 And they actually are pretty decent They don't hold zero. If it’s your everyday carry or your SHTF gun.

I have several lasers but battery life makes them questionable so I tried out a TRS25? and accidently left it on for a couple months. The Romeo5 has a motion sensor which turns on and a timeout of 30 seconds or something. |

I’ve got no problem seeing the dot in full sun on low power. 2 or 4 moa options and several optics to choose from for the application. Imo it’s best bang for buck. Good quality lens and lifetime warranty. I’d stay away from cheap red dots. I’ve put at least 3k rounds through my AR with vortex has held zero so far. |

Specially the “Sig Sauer” (not really made by Sig) ROMEO5 Just got an EOtech 512. That sight is utterly incredible. It's worth the price tag. I've used other types of optics before. But the 512 takes the take. Target acquisition is instant, visions is so clear all the way, common battery. Coming from a guy with one eye. The EOtech 512 allows me to easley fire accurately left or right handed. The most incredible sight. Placed on PTR 91. |

Really light and works very well. Magpul pro lr iron sights, and a Vortex 3x flip up scope. I've played around for a long time with lots of different setups and this is what I've settled on. The gun is very light, easy to handle, and gives you lots of different options for lots of different situations. |

Specially the “Sig Sauer” (not really made by Sig) ROMEO5 What do y’all recommend insofar as red-dots or reflex sights? I’m asking about the ones you regret having lost in that tragic boating accident, so it’s a hypothetical of course. Quoting: Tennessee Patriot I’ve had good luck with Holosun. Looking at that little Sig ROMEO5. That’s pretty affordable and I’ve read a lot about it. Thoughts? On ROMEO5 or any others? Go to combat with... Eotech, Trijicon, Leupold, and Aimpoint. Learn, practice, hunt, play, with Holosun (who makes the SIG products), Primary Arms, Bushnell, Burris. Kamala Harris is not a Natural Born Citizen. She's illegally running. Used by the Founders... Book I of The Law of Nations, Chapter XIX, § 212 (Joseph Chitty numbering) – “Citizens and natives” reads: 'The citizens are the members of the civil society; bound to this society by certain duties, and subject to its authority, they equally participate in its advantages. The natives, or natural-born citizens, are those born in the country, of parents who are citizens. As the society cannot exist and perpetuate itself otherwise than by the children of the citizens, those children naturally follow the condition of their fathers, and succeed to all their rights.' 1758 Emerich de Vattel Oh' What the Hell, do I look like I want to die in some nursing home one day... America must have 4 new Constitutional Amendments... 1. Drug Tests and Mental Evaluations on all politicians and judges randomly five times per year. 2. Term Limits for Federal politicians and judges. 3. Mental and health standards for Supreme Court Justices and retirement age set. 4. A 'Star Chamber' of elected Natural Born Citizens (no attorney's) to ivestigate, try, and prosecute the politicians and government employee's as they see fit. Mandatory death penalty by public hanging is the merciful sentence for pedos and their associates. Democrats are a WMD, literally. Let Justice Be Done Though The Heavens Fall. |
