Anthony Gendron's Review of Athlon Optics RD11-1x21 Red Dot ARD11 Reticle

While the red dot is nice the base kind of sucks. There are no torque specs in the instructions. I got it as tight as I could plus used blue loctite and it still keeps coming loose. I’m only using this on a 9mm AR so the recoil shouldn’t be an issue. I really like the red dot but if the base won’t hold I really can’t recommend this to anyone.
Pros:
  • easy to sight in
Cons:
  • Keeps loosening
Best Used for:
  • Pistol and AR platforms
Would Recommend: No
