Almost the best optic ever, but failed. - Burris AR-1X CQB 1x20mm Prism Red Dot Sight

Durable AF, Lifetime warranty, easy to see through glass, everything is amazing. So I bought 2 of them. But…. The reticle is so stupid there little dots and numbers cluttered everywhere it just becomes a big blob. I can’t aim at all so I never even tried to use it more than once. All Burris had to do was put 1 dot in the middle of the circle and it would be amazing. It could have been the best optic I ever had but instead I can’t aim at all. I never tried using it more than once and there no way I would ever try again. So I got 2 of them sitting in a safe forever.

Some optics suck, but this one broke my heart because it would be the best 1x prism optic on the market if they just put 1 simple dot. Why the heck did they splatter dots numbers and lines all over the tiny reticle?

If you have an astigmatism; this reticle will be worse than a red dot starburst.

I’ll see if Burris would give me some store credit to switch to a different optic/reticle. I would have 100% respect for the company if they allowed me to use one of there other optic reticle systems.
