Re: Red Dot Sights?
I actually have red dots on more guns than iron sights and have red dots on almost as many guns as scopes. Red dots are very much bread and butter kinds of sights for me.

I put a SIG Romeo5 on my H001L and headed to the range today. Ordered and added the DIP Inc rail a couple days ago. Sighting in at 25 yards was a snap and accuracy was good at 25 and 50 yards.Next project will be to adjust the Skinner Sights on the H001TRP. The Glow In The Dark paint applied to the front sight bead looks like a very small flashlight in my basement. Hopefully it will look the same at the range.

I really like my Romeo red dot. So easy to use. An inexpensive way to start into the red dot world. Enjoy your shooting.

Remember, it's not how many guns you have. It's how many bullets you have.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Re: Red Dot Sights?

Re: Red Dot Sights?
Mark they sell for about 110.00 on Amazon and yes either rifle or pistol as long as you have the rail.

My neighbor bought one of these for his AR. I was pretty impressed with it. Its a little bigger than the sig but it has a lot of features for the price. I kind of liked it. On a side note its a veteran owned company which is another reason to buy one in my opinion.

Re: Red Dot Sights?
Thanks for the info Al. Been considering red dots for a while, so any info is greatly appreciated. They just seem to make sense for older eyes.BigAl52 wrote: ↑Sat Jan 04, 2020 10:43 pmhttps://www.amazon.com/Predator-Include ... 535&sr=8-4

Re: Red Dot Sights?
The "Glow in the dark" paint looked good in my basement after exposure to a 60 watt lightbulb. However it didn't do that well in the dim lighting at the range. It did eliminate seeing two brass beads though. When I picked up the "Glow in the dark" paint I also picked up a bright white paint pen. I removed the "Glow in the dark" paint and applied two coats of the white paint. It passed the basement vision test but will see how it works at the range. Local PDs are using the range to practice for their 2020 qualification so it may take a while
