What's your favorite red dot sight?

China thanks you!
谢谢

Malaysia is what it says on the box for my 507K.

I like the holosun that direct mounts to the mos without a adapter plate and allows Co witness of factory sights

You don't get to bring up that without bringing up this…



Total fail.

Trijicon's Type 2 RMR is a tank. I've had one for almost a decade and it's never failed. I'd like to get a RCR or ACRO but haven't quite decided yet.

Both are legit. I have both and prefer the RCR.

That's good to hear, a step in the right direction. I may have look into this and alter my stance on Holosun if they have moved operations out of China.

SCS MOS, as I inferred above in don't have anything to do with Holosun but for a Glock MOS it's pretty hard to beat

I've been wanting to ask you about that now that you've had it for while.

I like almost everything about it better. Except the mounting. It presents better (for whatever reason), conceals better, and I can lock it out…. Which I haven't been able to figure out how to do with the ACRO (if you know please inform). Being a lefty and carrying appendix the buttons on the ACRO are exposed and will get bumped throughout the day adjusting the brightness. Don't get me wrong though I still love the ACRO.

The ACRO doesn't have a built-in mechanism to deactivate the switches, it's cool the RCR does. Obviously the mounting system isn't going to be as robust on the RCR as the ACRO, but would you deem it more than acceptable? I do like the shape of the RCR and the button configuration better. Do you happen to have a picture of them side-by-side looking at the lens?

The buttons are WAY better. One of my P2s has some of the mushiest buttons ever. It works but there is no tangible click when adjusting. It's all by sight.

Here's a few photos.

Thanks appreciate the photos

Have you seen anything on the Lead and Steal PB3? I've heard good things and would like to try one at some point.

No I haven't but I'm keeping an eye on it.

The window is huge on it. Resembles the MPS a bit but with way better battery life.

It looks like something I'd be seriously interested in for a rifle optic

If I pick one up I'll let you know what I think.

Definitely do that. Looks like they have a stocking problem. Do you know if they do batches or something?

They're a smaller company so I think they struggle keeping stuff in stock. The minute it hits they sell out again.

I have nothing to compare it to. I bought it because it was suggested to me by my SIL who is very active in the shooting sports and is kinda snobby about what he uses. So far, there's nothing for me to complain about.

Ok, can someone answer a question for me? What's the difference between an open emitter and a closed emitter? Does that mean the path of the light to the lens is either open to the atmosphere (and crap) compared to completely blocked in?
