RJH Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 1 hour ago, ColoradoNick said: Lifetime warranty right? lol, I have two setups if the need ever arises to send one in. I would let it turn itself off but I've been too lazy to figure out how to do it. I'm pretty sure mine is set in manual mode. I know my wife's DPP was in "shake awake" mode until it wasn't and I ended up having to swap a battery for her at a match because it had been on non-stop for a few months and went dead. I've been messing around with occluding the dot with tape in the event I end up shooting at a funky angle to the sun. Messing around with it at the range, my accuracy doesn't seem to change either way and it doesn't bother me. I've almost ordered the cover from SBGW but tape works just as well.

It is pretty good, but it does not get turned around fast from the people on the forum turning them in for warranty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpm8300 Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 I've run literally everything and everything has failed at some point - except the trusty Cmore Slideride. If I could mount that on my CO gun, I would. I settled on SRO 2.5 for CO. I have had one fail and Trijicon replaced it quickly. It was probably a fluke thing but that dot had seen less than 500 rounds and went completely dead during dry fire; true story. Trijicon was responsive via email and they ended up sending me a completely new optic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitro1 Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 I vote for the Romeo 3 line. The xl and max are amazing. The window is larger and a better shape than the SRO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recently, I've tried RTS2 but end up coming back to the using a 507 but recently moved into the SRO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recently, I've tried RTS2 but end up coming back to the using a 507 but recently moved into the SRO. To add more details, I favored RTS2s for a while but on my CO guns, the glass was coming loose. This happened on 2 dots; Cmore does a very good job of replacing these sorts of optics quickly. It was odd because I'm running relatively soft loads that shouldn't be breaking optics frequently, i.e. 147 with medium burn rate powder. The RTS2s are otherwise pretty good, now that they have quite a few revisions under their belt. The SRO had a halo issue in its earlier versions but they seemed to have fixed this. The optic itself seems very rugged and I like the profile backwards compatibility with the RMR and the top loading battery design. The glass is large, clear, and the dot granularity is very good. Lastly I will say I also like the R3MAX but its profile makes it a bit of a problem; it's not really backwards compatible with anything and requires adapter and puts the dot higher.

My RMR's, Holosuns, SRO's have never once been turned off. A lot of dots that cater to the competitive market seem to have poor battery life. Dots like the FTP 2 offer a lot of what competitive shooters want but I can't get myself to purchase one because the battery life is so small.

jubi351 Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 I replace the battery twice a year whether it's my SRO, Holosun or FTP, cheap insurance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m700 Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 Batteries arent that pricey in bulk. For whatever reason 2032's are $8 each or 10 for $9. I have 3 SROs oldest being almost 2 years and the newest 6 months. Im thinking ill start doing a yearly swap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobE1010 Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 No issues or problems with my Romeo3 Max/XL's or the FTP Alpha 3. Waiting for one of the Holosun 507Comp's to try as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atlas33 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Any of the Sigs or holosun 507 comp will be nice. Have them all and don’t have a preference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
