I have a PTR 9CT and I'm looking for suggestions on a rail mounted reflex/red dot sight. I would like a nice wide field of view for quick target acquisition. Looking for a sight that I do not have to remove to replace the battery. Not looking to break the bank ( well it's broke now since I purchased the PTR) Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated....Thanks!!
I've been on the verge of ordering one of those in carbine form for about a year now. What's your opinion of the PTR 9CT? I have the PTR H&K 91 clone and like it a lot.
This is the carbine version: There's talk of making a dummy suppressor to cover over the exposed barrel. Comes with proprietary M-Lock forearm.
If you’re trying to save a little coin, buy a holosun. These guns bring back a lot memories. This is the first type I have seen with the integrated rail on top

Yup, if you're trying to save some coin, one of the Holosun models or the Primary Arms MD-ADS which is a Holosun itself. Get one of the models with 50,000 hour battery life; they'll be ~$170-$230 at regular price but have been on sale cheaper lately. They use Aimpoint H1/T1 mounts and have a good reputation.

Can you leave a Holosun or Primary Arms model on constantly for years like I do my Aimpoint T2?
The aimpoint is a little more than I'm looking to spend at this time. I've heard good things about the Holosun. They just seem to have a small field of view. I think I'm looking more for a reflex vs a tube sight.

The Holosun and PA models we're talking about are the same format as the Aimpoint H1/T1/etc, just a miniature red dot sight. It's not a magnified optic, the field of view depends how close it is to your eye, and is pretty much the same as the Aimpoint versions. That's a totally different thing than talking about field of view in a magnified optic.
The functional difference between a "reflex" sight like an RMR vs a tube sight like an Aimpoint T1 is just the housing; they both work the same way and the "field of view" is pretty much irrelevant.

Yes but a bit smaller. Seen quite a few videos comparing the two. Some people liked it better and it's quite a bit cheaper. Has an auto on auto off motion feature and solar backup to its 50k battery life. Got it for $240 tax and shipping from optics planet. The had a 14% off coupon for Red dots. Should work out just fine.
The only problem with that style of dot sight is getting a flip up dust cover for them. I've got one on my Eotech 512, but it was a major deal installing it. You had to take a lot of stuff apart. It's a whole major deal, whereas on an Aimpoint type tube red dot sight, you just put them on each end and that's it.
