Looking for a red dot sight

Great dot for the price...another great dot for super cheap is the Bushnell TRS 25...it floats on amazon for as low as $60 sometimes.

I've used the 2 I have on AK47's, AR's, and others....never had any reliability issues.

I actually replaced a TRS25 with a Romeo 5. They are the same basic size. The reason I changed was the "shake awake" technology in the Romeo. I use mine on my home defense rifle. I just leave the sight on, and it goes to sleep until I grab the gun. REAL long battery life in that mode.

I've had one on my Scorpion Evo for a couple years now. It's been solid the whole time. I'm with BTQ probably not putting one on my "Fighting rifle" but a solid option for shooters.

That's the perfect gun for one.  Slight detour, can you show us how you have it mounted?  I always wondered how the iron sights work with it.

I've heard good things about the Sig Romeo, but I wouldn't expect it to be as dependable as an Aimpoint.  But for the price, I'll mount it on a fun gun if I ever get one.

I'm sure it's not. I have an Aimpoint in the safe. the Romeo is on a nightstand gun that I can afford to lose.

That looks good...how does it feel for you with sight acquisition?

It feels really good to me. I shoot AK's more than anything so the low sight works well for me. The gun comes up on point pretty quickly and is balanced pretty well so it transitions quickly. The red dot co witness's perfectly with the irons, it's spot on. You are welcome to shoot it anytime you want if you are interested in getting one.
