SIG SAUER Romeo5 1x20mm Tread Closed Red Dot Sight

Sig Romeo 5 gen 1 is an absolute rock star. I own four gen 1 and two gen 2. Other than the Sig Romeo 5, I own an EOTech XPS2. in other words, if I dot spend hundreds on a top tier optic, I go for the Romeo 5. The Romeo 5 is universally praised for punching well above its price class by bringing rugged, reliable, and premium features to a highly affordable platform. This keeps zero... period. Even on my 590 Shockwave 12ga.

Great red dot. Rugged and extremely easy to use. After I zeroed it I was ringing steel at 100 yards with a 10mm carbine with ease.

This red dot sight is the best investment I have made. Easy Installation, very light weight, and perfectly zeroed. I already attached it to my duty AR 15 DDM4. That combo is unique. Highly recommend. Very happy with the decision made.

Works very well!

I absolutely love this Romeo5. Well built, great quality, easy to sight in and use. Most importantly it holds zero perfectly once it's sighted in. The red dot is crisp and clean, the front lens coating is really nice and the sight is clear. It has a brightness setting for any lighting condition, even in full sun. The motion activation system work's great and is a cool feature. You can still manually power the unit off and on. Make sure the battery cap is tight, i haven't had a single issue with mine but i have read other people have during firing due to the cap not being secure. Comes with the high and low mounts. I have mine cowitnessed with magpul mbus flip sights. You cannot go wrong with this sight. It comes with everything you need and in my opinion this sight should cost more than it does. I'm buying the romeo5 xdr predator next. I really like the compact design compared to other sights.

I had a hard time deciding to get a red dot in this price range. There are some decent RDS around the $30 range. And with this one approaching $60, it had me wondering if I should just jump up to a Romeo MSR or Romeo 5. However, after some research and reading reviews here on Amazon I decided to ‘pull the trigger’ (pun intended) on this one. And I’m glad I did, I’m most happy about the size. It’s very compact and looks pretty good on the 10.5 inch pistol I built as a home defense gun. I haven’t beaten this thing up by any means, but I’ve been impressed so far. It held its zero. And If issues do crop up, I’ll be sure to update this review. UPDATE I purchased and installed the red dot cover made by AT3 tactical to my RDS-22. And I just wanted to confirm for anyone curious that it does fit. The Feyachi RDS-22 and the RD-50 by AT3 Tactical appear to be the exact same item. One just costs $40 more than the other, and the mounts are different....I updated my pics to include a couple showing the new cover installed. ******************************* I rely heavily on reviews when I make purchases so I put some time into reviewing everything I buy on Amazon for personal or business use so I can help other people considering that item.

This is probably the best "budget" red dot option. Not sure I would trust it for any actual self defense purposes, but for other purposes I don't think there is a better option out there. I have it mounted to a PCP set up, but I think it would also make a great turkey sight if you are looking for a red dot option. The 2 MOA dot is very clear and easy to pick up. Very well made (not surprising from Sig) and seems like it will hold up very well in the field.

Simple to install, this is a game-changer. I am an old-school iron-sight guy, so adding any optic was a huge step for me. Target acquisition is amazing and is a huge confidence boost.
