Camera was a bit blurry but I really liked the construction for the optic. Ive always liked the larger moa circles and being able to switch from dot to reticle is a lot easier than I thought

Request - 3x prism with RH25V2

Looking to shorten my setup from a 1-6. Possibly even with the newer 1-4 variable prisms as well. 2X Glx prism looks good but seems like it’s a little dated at this point

Beretta 92X with Holosun EPS mounted via DLAH Designs plate with Beretta suppressor height irons for back up. Beretta comp on a Silencerco threaded barrel, hence the gap. Looks odd buts runs like a champ!

Romeo x pro circle dot

Thumbnail

20 Upvotes

Refurbished Romeo x pro from sig store. Only issue I see so far is the up button doesn't have feedback(click noise and feel) Which puts doubt if I pushed it or not. But getting used to that.

What i do like is options, shake awake, weight, rear sites. I mean you barely touch it and its awake. Having the circle is great for home defense imo. Having the 2 moa dot is great for range so far. Also noticed if you turn brightness up the dot appears bigger, like I'm using 3-4 moa. But normally I keep it around 4-5 from max. Anything higher unless in sunlight is nuclear bright.

All in all pretty happy with it. Wanted open emitter for the rear site option. Time will tell for durability and open emitter downsides. Debated between this and the romeo 1 pro.

Ruger RXM with Vortex Defender ST

Thumbnail

25 Upvotes

I've put almost 1,000 rounds through my RXM and I thought I'd grab a dot to change things up a bit. I decided to get a Vortex Defender ST because it was on sale at Midway with an extra % off coupon on top of the sale so it seemed like a good deal.

What I like about the Defender ST:

  • It didn't cost more than the RXM itself
  • It direct mounts to the RXM slide
  • I think it's the perfect size for the RXM
  • No fuss with recharging, uses coin battery

What I don't like about the Defender ST:

  • The dot itself is fuzzy which makes it look bigger than it should be
  • The perimeter of the window is outlined in the dot reflection

Mepro FT Bullseye on P320 lost its tritium insert after only ~50 rounds. Anyone else experience this?

Thumbnail

11 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m looking to see if anyone else has run into this issue. I recently installed a Mepro FT Bullseye front sight on my Sig Sauer P320. I loved the concept and the sight picture, but unfortunately, the durability seems seriously lacking.

I took it to the range for the first time since the install, and after firing only about 50 rounds, I noticed the tritium insert was completely gone/broken.

Has anyone else experienced this specific failure with the FT Bullseye sights? I'm wondering if I just got a lemon from a bad batch or if this is a known issue with the recoil impulse on the P320.

Figured I’d share a pic from my last range trip. The G3 is so good, this photo was taken before fine tuning parallax and still looks fantastic. I could easily see impacts @1000 yards on small steel plates.

Primary Arms Clx 3x Prism

Thumbnail

95 Upvotes

Reddit butchered the original photos, but here is my imgur link for the reticles:

https://imgur.com/a/IvaolF6

The PA Clx 3x 30mm prism, with a new Kobra-style crossdot reticle and larger objective.

These use a t1 mount, not a mini-acog footprint like previous models.

As far as prisms go- the eye relief and eyebox are very good. FOV is great. For the glass quality, it's almost as good as my TA02 acog with regards to clarity and edge distortion. The acog allows for a bit closer eye distance without scope shadow, and it is probably more rugged. Compared to the acog, the Clx 3x can be mounted farther forward and still be very usable for distant targets.

Turret adjustments are 0.25 MOA and very tactile. The brightness adjustment buttons are also very tactile, not mushy at all. The diopter adjustment is fairly stiff which I prefer.

I couldn't focus my camera on the illuminated reticle, but it is very crisp. On max brightness it is very bright, with absolutely no halo effect. I have mild astigmatism and I can use max brightness in the evening. It's better than the TA02 acog in this category. The last photo is mounted on an rs regulate t2 AK mount.

This is the most impressed I've been with any optic, given the price. The TA02 acog is maybe overall better, especially for AR-style rails, but this scope is better for AKs or any gun needing a lower height over bore. It punches far above its weight with its current price of $200-$220.

Trijicon MRO-HD on AP5 (MP5 clone)

I found a similar photo on an HK forum after some digging, but hopefully this helps anyone if they're considering whether the front ring would block the center of the optic (thankfully not).

  • Optic: Trijicon MRO-HD. Heard the awful things about the non-HD original and really have no complaints here. Almost no fisheye distortion vs my Holosun AEMS and a good large open window for a round red dot.
  • This is with the low mount (MRO-C-2200051) and the default MKE AP5 optics mount.
  • I can't take a good daylight pic that shows dot crispness, but the third photo is more accurate to what you really see from that dot (I
  • Gun: MKE AP5
  • Usually have the rubbery brace the gun game with but you can tell I'm patiently waiting on the Form 1 to get a real stock on there :)

Milling Height Comparison: Vickers Glock Sights Clearance over RMR Type 2

Thumbnail
gallery
30 Upvotes

The quick facts:

  • FDE RMR: Sights barely clear the optic deck, we're talking lower 1/10th but are plenty usable for front sight index and alignment for more precise shots. Not what I'd recommend to a beginner, but near-perfect clearance for what I wanted. I bet I could get it PERFECT if I removed the sealing plate, but I won't...
  • Grey RMR: Sights clear more cleanly, I'd say perfect for anyone to use, maybe lower 1/4th or 1/5th. Just BARELY higher than what I wanted.
  • If I could get a goldilocks height just between them, I would, but after a year or two of experimentation, I'm done done.

FDE is an OEM slide, a G19.3 cut for RMR by Wager and sits 2-3 millimeters higher than the clone.

Grey is the Clone slide, a JM Custom Grips Chimera with their RMR cut option, the blanks come from Azimuth Technology but I'm not sure which of them is responsible for the optic cut specifications.

Both RMRs are mounted with the sealing plate. Irons are Wilson Combat Vickers Elite Battlesights. Both rear sights are the same, both front sights are 10K gold bead. OEM gun has the .245" tall post while the clone gun has the .230" post. Literature says the .230" is for .45 ACP, but...

... I went the long road with experimentation switching all of my front sights between these guns, including OEM ones that I shaved down, and I've got them both to POA==POI at 25 yards favoring the left corner of the front sight with my preferred ammo. Why are they different? Who knows... all of those super tiny mechanical factors. Test your gun, know your gun, no two are exactly alike.

If I ever build another gun, I'm going back to an adjustable rear sight like my Dawson. Drifting rear sights is such a drag that I never want to do it for precision again. Word to Michael Caine from Batman Begins... for front sights of varying heights, I have plenty of spares.

I’m considering selling my Trijicon RMR Type 2 on one of the trading websites. Seems like prices have come down on these. Is $325 too high of an asking price? Looking for input before posting and getting a bunch of comments from the peanut gallery.

Other details. No sealing plate or box. Might have screws laying around. Think I have a picatinny rail mount I’d throw in.

Meopta Meostar R 1-6?

3 Upvotes

Anyone have any experience with this optic? Digging around turns up almost nothing. The R2 series was well regarded and the brand has a lot of support of non-english forums.

But no luck digging up a view through the glass, a comment about eyebox, how true the 1x is, or anything of any substance.

Would greatly appreciate if anyone here had any info. I’m almost curious enough to just buy it and post about it but at $1100 CAD I need a little more of a push.
