    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.
    I've read of a non-trivial number of people online having trouble zeroing the EPS Carry due to not enough adjustment. 507K is still the one to beat, IMHO.

    Anyone have any idea why this setup is 15MOA? Is that a limitation imposed by the reflex method their using?
    Maybe it needs to be that wide in order to collect enough light to be seen in low light situations. No idea.

    Decided this should live best on a range gun intended just to use as a trainer. I think I found the perfect host for it.

    Headed to DelMarva next Friday if anyone wants to come out and shoot it for yourself.

    I got one of these in February and mounted it on my Taurus G3c---hadnt been out to try it til yesterday--very pleased-dot is easy to find and and at the distances one might use a compact carry pistol it works just fine. Had to modify my holster a bit for clearance but no problem.

    How is the clarity? Especially in low light? It appears to have one heck of a notch filter on it.

    If only people would present their pistol properly(straight and level), then they wouldn't have to "find" the dot.
    No RDS is easier than any other to find the dot.

    Its big and bright outdoors or in lit room--big and dim but still visible in low light. You wont be shooting the eyes out of a squirrel up a tree with this --basically a large red ball that your shots will be in the center of. Seems rugged enough and no battery-no switches--no adjustments either--it sits just above your sights---designed for a particular Ruger pistol but works just fine on my Taurus TORO slide
