Great deal on a red dot sight.

Post by CPJ 2.0 »

Vortex, takes a single AA battery. I bought one a few weeks ago for like $10 more. Because that’s my luck.

That's what they were last month as well. I just checked my order history

Yep, they just offered it again. And I bit. Ones staying on my charger, ones going on my blackout pistol. Guy at work is bringing me a 3x magnifier tomorrow so I can test my theory.

Two dots one magnifier.

I LIKE that setup. Flip the magnifier to the side if you don’t want it. Flip it the middle when you want 3x. Since I don’t use the charger or the .300 at the same time…I’ll swap the magnifier.

Who made the magnifier? and do you think it and/or the dot will survive 50 wulf recoil?

Sig. I borrowed a Holosun from a guy at work, but it was a bit too long. The sig was more compact. And about $50 cheaper than the compact vortex. Had a lifetime warranty as well.

I ASSume they would handle the recoil.

Vortex says:

“SHOCKPROOF
Designed to withstand the highest levels of recoil and impact.”


Kinda vague.


Sig doesn’t mention anything.
