    Same question. I have a standard flat top and want to co-witness with a standard FSB.

    I have never used the 32, but have mounted 2 TRS 25's on flat top AR's with standard FSB with this mid height riser:

    Mid Riser

    Damn near perfect co witness on both.

    Awesome. Thanks for posting this up.

    I've been trying to figure out what I'll put on the AR pistols that I'll eventually build.

    Just ordered a TRS-32 for $45 shipped.

    Crap I just bought one a week ago at $54 shipped and thought that was a great deal. Now I saw this and for $45 there was no way I could resist - and yes I already know where it is going :)

    Thanks OP!

    If you're thinking about a varmint rifle, I highly recommend the Bushmaster Varminter upper with a 24" extra heavy fluted barrel. It's not cheap ($600) but it has reach and accuracy. I just sighted my new one in a couple of days ago and it's amazing.

    Thanks for sharing. I have been thinking about it a lot lately and there are so many options. I originally was going to build it up to a complete rifle but it seems like for the cost, it would be a wash and I could buy a complete upper for this purpose.

    Any other suggestions on Barrels, uppers, complete uppers?

    My experience is limited, so I'm not comfortable recommending anything else. I already had the Bushmaster XM-15 E2S and initially was just looking for a flat top upper to swap out. The Varminter really caught my eye. I like it so much that I just had 2A Sales build a complete lower for me, so I won't be sitting around with an AR-15 and a half.

    So...I jumped on the bandwagon and got 3 of these mini-scopes. Bushnell TRS-25.......

    Arrived, so I checked them out..all 3 of them..
    Not one of them has a clear red dot presentation.....what is seen can be best described as a "red pen scribble". not fit for man nor beast.

    eMail to Bushnell went out yesterday.......

    PSA finally shipped my TRS-32 yesterday with an expected delivery next Monday. Hope I don't have the same problem.

    I already have 2 25s and third in route. The two I have do not have a single red dot, but what appears to be 3 very small tightly grouped dots. Looking very close the dot is more of a tiny triangle, but its not problem; especially for an optic I have only paid about $50 for. Adjustable brightness is good.

    I ordered one a while ago. Still waiting for PSA to actually ship the damn thing...since they charged my card over a week ago. I tried calling their customer service number to ask if they planned to ship it. Got a fast busy signal each time I tried (called four times over the course of two days). Sent a couple emails-no reply.
    Now it seems maybe these are crap...

    Guess the whole "too good to be true" bit may ring true here...if I ever get the damn thing. :mad54:

    Do you have astigmatism? That's a known problem with all red-dots and people with astigmatism.

    Slow day at work today so I on hold for a while. It looks like they are still processing orders from back on the 13th. I guess they had a bit of a holiday rush

    To be fair. PSA is up front about charging your credit card as soon as they get the order and the web site did say shipping was running a week to ten days from order receipt and longer for some items.

    Pretty good deal IMO. I should have ordered more than 1. But, don't have need for more than 1 right now. Enter Bushnell10 for another 10%off. $44.99 shipped

    http://palmettostatearmory.com/index...ot-731303.html

    For that price I also couldnt say no even though I prefer EOtechs (and have them on my primary)

    But I need to equip a back-up gun so I cant wait to get the TR25 in the mail.

    Also picked up 2 Blackhawk VFGs which are among my favorite VFGs 2nd only to the Daniel Defense and at this price cant say no.

    I've been trying to figure out what I'll put on the AR pistols that I'll eventually build.

    Just ordered a TRS-32 for $45 shipped.

    Mine that I ordered on the 17th shipped on the 27th, and I should have it on Friday. It'll go on an old rifle for now, and eventually on one of the AR pistols that are next on the build list. For $45 shipped, how can you complain?
