red dot that doesn't empty your bank account
Yes, it's not an Aimpoint or Eotech, but for general use, or sitting atop a patrol rifle, it's just what you need. Some really nice features include a rubber armored body machined from a single piece of aluminum, automatically adjusting reticle brightness, recoil rated to .458 Socom, tethered turret caps (on the newest models), 1500hrs on a single AAA battery (longer, if you use a lithium battery, and a feature I really enjoy, 4 different, holographic reticles. Dial in your preference for a 2 m.o.a. single dot, a chevron reticle, a circle with center dot, or a cross hair, Plus, all the reticles have a key describing the reticles' length in minutes of angle which allow you use them for range estimation, or bullet drop compensation. It's built in Picatinny rail mount saves you at least 70 bucks right there, and it's the proper height for co-witnessed iron sights for an AR-15. So unless you need ridiculously long battery life, night vision compatibility, or bomb proof ruggedness, it's a good choice. If not, Aimpoints and Eotechs abound.Read full review
