Budget 3x flip magnifier options?

[Synack42]

I get it, budget and optics don't mix... But in a hypothetical situation where you're sitting on some Amazon gift cards and you have a range toy AR with a Sig Romeo5 on a co-witness riser... Would anything in the $100 ballpark be alright for just plinking around? I'm just looking for something to make it easier on the eyes out to 200 max on nice weekends, not exactly doing HALO jumps with this guy.

I've been window shopping and so far super sketchy names like Monstrum and Feyachi keep popping up. I wouldn't mind splurging a bit more on something like Primary Arms if it's worth the extra, just concerned about their mounts matching with the Romeo5. (Whereas I've seen the two no name brands in various pictures appearing to play nice with the Sig.)

Thanks

I use a sightmark with a Romeo 5 . Mainly for sighting in . Some times more. I'm not a GI Joe. I don't leave it mounted for bed side duty . Works fine and has a quick mount.

Well, I just bit on the 4X Monstrum prism deal for $101 after tax. I'm willing to throw good money after bad for an occasional hidden gem.

I got the 4x Monstrum Cyclops as well. Flat out impressed. It is clear, and the reticle is 100% clear when illuminated unlike red dots. Build quality on par with Sig/Holosun. If it doesn't break, it is a keeper.

Then I Got a 5x as well...I saw them first on this video:

They sell flip up magnifiers as well, in your price range. I would not hesitate to try it.

Thanks -- you guys actually made me change my mind on the Monstrum stuff (and a dedicated prism sight). Ended up going with the tacticool 3x with the offset dot: https://a.co/d/1cN6Yyb

I really wanted the Juliet, but honestly can't justify the price for a weekend range toy build.

Sports South is running a special right now on the Romeo5 and Juliette Magnifyiers combo. under 179.99 A great price...

Which if these budget options actually have good eye relief, though?

 

[Synack42]

Just got it today, so far seems shockingly decent. The eye relief doesn't seem too bad, I have it mounted where the ocular lens is just about flush with the rear of the pic rail. I'm able to focus fairly quickly with my normal stock length and hold in that position. The somewhat tactical cheesy sidecar dot doesn't seem bad either. Allows for 90 or 45 degree mounting and isn't too awkward adjusting my hold to use it.

Might be a couple weeks before I'm able to get to the range to properly sight it in, but I'll post an update after.
