I've seen pretty good sales on the Sig Romeo5 from a couple of places.. The reviews are very good from what I've seen. Anybody here have one? I'm thinking about adding a red dot to my AR and this looks to be an attractive option.
According to a thread on another forum a Sig rep has stated that Holosun does not make Any of their sights...
It is on par with the Primary Arms Micro Dot, I think they are a great value. There are some pretty brutal torture tests of these sights on youtube. I did not like the m4 clone though(Romeo 7 ,I think), it stopped working about a month after buying it.I've seen pretty good sales on the Sig Romeo5 from a couple of places..

I took mine through a 800 round count ,two day carbine course. I would do it again too.I ended up buying one. Time will tell if it holds up, but it looks good so far.
The are two red dots sights below Aimpoint money worth consideration- the Primary Arms Micro Advanced and the Sig Romeo 5. Both are rugged enough for everyday use, will hold zero and have a battery life of at last one year of continuous use. We have both.
The Micro Advanced can be had with either buttons or a rotary dial for adjusting dot illumination. I prefer the rotary dial. The Advanced does not come with a mount but any mount that fits an Aimpoint Micro will fit the PA Micro Advanced.
The Sig Romeo 5 only comes with push buttons for controlling dot illumination and two mounts. One is of the absolute co-witness height for ARs and the other move lower, suitable for mounting on a rifle like a 10/22. I find the glass of the Romeo to be a bit brighter than the PA. The Romeo costs a couple of bucks less and comes with a mount, making it the better value.
I have only seen the PA Advanced available online. The Romeo is available in almost anywhere firearms accessories are sold.
After using both, my preference is for the Romeo, but both are the top choices in the price range.
