There was a backlog, then all of the crap in China hit so now there's a really big backlog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazhi Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 Is the R3 Max made in China? I thought most of them are made in Philippines, some in Japan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmi786 Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 Does anyone have a Romeo 3 max and an rts-2? I would like to know if anyone has done a comparison. To buy an in stock Romeo 3 max from SIG directly is $779, you can get get an rts-2 for about $360. Is it worth the price difference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
echotango Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 (edited) I switched to XL's from rts2's. Not even a comparison in my opinion. I have sold all my rts2's and now have 4 XL's. MUCH brighter dot, better buttons, longer battery life, larger glass, etc. Also don't buy from Sig. You can find them in the low $500's if you look. I got mine for $475-$525.

jmi786 Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 (edited) OK, thanks, that's what I wanted to know. I see them for that price, it seems like it is going to be a long time to fill the back orders. Edited March 26, 2020 by jmi786 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slide or Frame mounted? I have an XL sitting here on my desk that either I am going to sell or get one of the PD Stock 2 slides cut up for it...just concerned about its longevity.
