Interesting

I just watched that video an hour ago. Yes, very interesting.
Actually not a huge Ruger lover, but that doesn't seem like a bad pistol for the price, either.

I just ordered one. For $99/free shipping, it's worth playing with.

I plan to slap it on my Ruger Mark IV 22/45 and see how it does on some steel at 20 yards.

I'll be looking forward to your field tests.

Same here the fact that it has a RMSc footprint at that price makes it worth a look.

Please let us know what you think

For that price it’s hard not to try

It kinda looks like something you'd get out of a 25 cent gumball machine, but what the heck?

Yeah when he turned it over and I saw the machine marks on the plastic looking body I was kinda weirded out, but I have thrown away $100 on dumber stuff for sure lol

Frankly if it won't fit a Glock, it doesn't do me any good but it's still interesting.

I am in the same boat. I really want a dot on my 42, but cutting the slide(if I can find someone who will), in this case, will cost more than the sight. The footprint will work with other RDS micros though so...

something else to buy , get a max 9 with the optic , sell my lc9 .

Just shipped. Review coming soon....

Arrived today... very interesting... extremely light weight. Don't have a scale in front of me, but at least half the weight of a Holosun 507K I have sitting here. Lens is very tinted (blue), much more then the any of my Holosuns I have here (407A, 407K, 507K). Window is smaller then the 407K but still pretty descent. Optic is smaller overall then a 407K. The dot is bright and easy to pick up. It is a large dot (15MOA iirc) but for CCW, I see no issue in this. My 407K has a 6MOA dot, you can tell a difference with this. I have a silouette printed on 8"x11" piece of paper hanging on my wall 12ft from my desk. The 15MOA dot on the Ruger ReadyDot almost covers the entire head. Would be perfect for center mass shots.

I have a P365 380 I'm picking up this week that I plan to put this on. Range report hopefully next weekend.

The blue tint is notch filter. It filters out a certain spectrum that inhibits your ability to see the LED's reflection on the lens(for those who might not know).

Can't wait to hear your impressions of the sight.

 

[joppaj]

Thanks Hibs. I look forward to seeing what you think of it.

 

[smokey]

Let's see... f ton of notch filter, you can't adjust it for brightness or point of impact, and the 15 moa dot is gigantic. That and it's still 100 bucks. Hard pass. It's hard to beat the fully enclosed k footprint eps carry right now.
