I prefer iron sights. Don't need to worry about batteries running down or leaking.

I like turtles.

what’s your point?

Not sure what style RDS or mounting system you're looking for, but I've been doing a bit of reading on budget oriented sights lately and am (surprisingly to me) leaning towards a Sig Romeo 5 as a simple yet reliable optic. Edited to ask if you have experience with red dot sights or if you have astigmatism...would suck so spend $300-500 on an optic and not have a clearly projected reticle. If you have astigmatism, I'd recommend a prism sight based on my reading.

I prefer iron sights as well but my eyes disagree. I would put a illuminated 1x6 scope on it . The best of both worlds.

Going for mud on the turtle?

I have a leupold fixed 4x scope on mine. Small might weight. Good enough for my use which is 100 rds max

Sorry you said red dot. Maybe give the new enclosed Trijicon RMR a shot. I like their 1 moa dots

I’ve had a primary arms micro dot for years, same battery and no issues.

It’s actually on a paintball gun now and has taken a few hits without breaking.

My wife has assured me that isn’t an option.


Wait, what are we talking about?

I want a reflex type sight for it, but trijicon is a bit out of my budget. Anything close in the 300-500 range?

No astigmatism here, but envisioning a reflex sight on a pic rail. I have a couple Romeo’s on other rifles, and love them, just want something more compact and don’t need magnification.

Holosun has a few models that fit the reflex type sight bill. 510 comes to mind, but maybe a little high of a mount with the QD mount. Primary Arms really need to step it up with their reflex options.

Might try checking out Sightmark & see if there’s anything in their lineup that fits your needs.
