Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Optics Heckuva deal on Sightron Red Dot at Midway

Mine were delivered today. Yes, they can be turned off manually by holding either the up or down button for 3 seconds.
Also, the base that's included has a smaller diameter cross-bolt allowing it to be mounted on Weaver style bases. It also has 10 brightness settings.
I haven't mounted them yet but they look like a pretty nice red dot, especially for $100.

Excellent news! I should be getting mine any day now. Thanks again for the hot tip!

Mine came today, too. Battery was packaged separately, different than what some folks have complained about (already installed, and dead). Very nice RDS, just gotta decide what to put it on now.

P.S. One word of advice... Do NOT install the included scope cover if you haven't already mounted the light to your gun! The instructions say absolutely nothing about the proper use of the cover, but it is practically impossible to remove from the RDS if not attached to your gun.
Of course I'm NOT speaking from personal experience....

Jcon—were you able to get yours off? Dumbass me had to put the cover on. So far I haven’t gotten it off. Help if you have any suggestions. TIA

That must be true for all of them. I did the same thing when I got my Burris FF3. I called Burris to see if there was a trick to removing it but I was told I would just have to jam something up in there to pry it loose. Needless to say, my FF3 has a few "battle scars" before it was ever mounted.

While supply lasts we will match the $119.99 on the Sightron SRS-2 Reflex Sight Kits

Lots of sweating--both literal and emotional. I finally flipped it upside down and used the rubber-cushioned handle of some channel locks to push the sight (using a LOT of effort) out of the cover. I'll probably never install that cover again, whether or not the sight is mounted on a gun.

My first from Midway arrived Monday. I just ordered two more from Doug. I was doing some research but cannot figure out exactly what is needed to mount these on a Glock. Any help would be greatly appreciated

I don't know what Glock you own, but this Sightron uses the C-More base pattern. Here's one place to get adapters:

Just need a couple. I’m thinking one for a 30 and 19x

Jcon—Thanks for the tip. Wish me luck

Got mine in, mine was an open box. Y'alls? Everything appears to be fine. Yeah, dont try putting the cover on until its on a gun.

Mine appears new. Can you elaborate as to what "open box" means to you?

Thanks Doug.

Just ordered one...

Should I just drop it off my way home as that's where I live too lol
My middle one is a Sr at Calhoun

Are these suitable for use on a carbine with a rail?

Thanks for the offer neighbor.
I'll bet the ride to Bethpage is a lot nicer than than the 5:24 to Penn...

heck yeah, mine is going on a ruger pc9

Not taped up on ends, in any plastic, unlike about every other red dot or scope I've bought.

Smokin' deal if it works for ya....

Looked high & low at Doug's CL store

Ended up with a Holosun HS510C 2 MOA green dot

Wasn't $120 though......going on new Ruger PC 9 carbine

50K hr battery (they say) along with solar back up to keep it running w/o battery
