    Another decent option is to have friends that shoot the same division. sharing a gun is not the end of the world. 

     

    A couple years back one of my friends got beat by two guys that were shooting his gun.

    Ouch

    Make sure the battery cap is over tightened (a quarter turn past what you can do with the plastic tool. 

    I have the actual estimated life expectancy from SIG somewhere in my email. The brightness setting makes a dramatic difference. On the highest power and in continuous motion (truly staying always on) it was something like 10 days or two weeks of use, and at the lowest setting in continuous motion it was around two years. 

    Thanks for the info. I guess at a minimum I should turn it all the way down before putting it away.

    The 2019 catalog specifically calls out 20,000 hours.  No setting mentioned.  I’ve no doubt the 3 MOA will go at least 8 months of daily carry at three clicks below maximum, havied carried them that way since last January and changing batteries every 6 months.  The replaced batteries still measured a good level on my Fluke meter.

     

    the 6 MOA is a lot brighter and may not go that long.  I’m tracking the two I have for battery life, but they only play a few days a week, mostly dry fire and a weekly range run.

    Thanks for the reply. Just picked up my Romeo 1 6 MOA so we shall see.

    Congrats on  the Fluke they are the best.

  4. I ordered a Romeo 1 6 MOA and it should be here in a day or so. I had a sig 320 RX in the past and the battery life was pretty dismal so I am wondering if the new Romeos are any better or if I should stock up on batteries now. Love the sight just not the battery life.

  5. Just picked mine up this afternoon. I cleaned her up and then put fifty rounds of my reloads through to check function, only problem was a failure to lock the slide back on the second mag. I will probably put in a lighter recoil spring as the brass ejects almost straight up and doesn't go far. I am pretty happy so far, I didn't check for accuracy but has no problem with 10 inch steel at 15 yards. I will be picking up a Romeo 1 6 MOA red dot in a few days and if the weather doesn't get to cold we will get her dialed in.  Trigger pull was 4.5 out of the box. I plan to put a few rounds through her before doing anything to the trigger as it is very clean just a little heavy.
