I saw this on a commercial during Modern Guns. Has anyone tried one out?

TTAG did a review of it and it doesn't sound too bad. I am thinking it would be nice for an HD shotty or AR. Maybe not so much for target shooting.

I expect they will come out with even better versions in the future. At 1.8oz and no need for a front site, it sounds good for a gun where weight is the enemy.

I have had one of these in my cart at Amazon for 6mos now. Just can't seem to cough up the $100 to try one out.

Maybe if I could try one first.

I looked at one that a friend was trying out on his airsoft gun. It works, but I definitely would not prefer it to a red dot. Also did not get to try shooting with it under pressure, so I have no idea how well that would go, but he liked it.

I got one from www.sotaarms.com for around $75 at the end of January not including shipping. Haven't decided what to mount it on - possibly a future gun as most of my rifles that can take optics already have them.

Would love to see some more reviews on this. I like the fact that it doesn't require batteries.

I just checked and it's still available from Sota Arms for $75 ...

but these guys have something like a $10 shipping charge. Still better than paying $100 at other places.

Can be mounted on pistols as well ...

I have one mounted on my 6.8 strictly as a backup, or something is too close or too fast to get a bead on with the Burris.

I have not zeroed it yet, but I'm pretty impressed with the simplicity, quality and speed of target acquisition. For $80, I'm not complaining. Excuse the blurry pics.

As a scope backup, I like it. The likelihood of my scope going down is pretty low already, something tough and simple seems like the trick.

I'd be more enthused at a $50 price point.

Yes, I would definitely be more inclined to buy one if they were around $50, but still might pick one up.

They need to lose the dorky looking billboard.

That's just some paint. Annoying, but not a huge deal.

That green is used to gather light and make it appear to glow. I just think the black part is a little larger than it needs to be. I suspect that if they are smart, they will come out with other versions.
