A great optic - for the range
Written on Apr 16, 2025
It's a trijicon. The glass is great, they're rugged, and batteries last forever..
Everything about this sight is really impressive, except for one thing. There's no shake awake. To make things worse, there's no auto-off function either. You have to twist the dial like it's a 2005 truglo..from wally world.
To me, it's just not what I'd expect from one of the top players in the optics game.
Without fail, I will go to the range only to find I forgot to turn it off, and the battery is dead.
It's expensive, and lacking features of optics half it's price point. I'd like to rate it higher for all the other great things you get, but I think it's such a big deal that it overshadows anything else.
The Primary Arms "Auto-On" caps will not fit, and I've yet to see any products to add the shake awake function from trijicon.
For punching paper at the range or possibly even a (hog) hunting trip it's an excellent option. However, I couldn't recommend it on anything you'd want at the ready.

Worth adding to your toolbox

Review for
Geissele Gas Block Roll Pin Tool
Over the years, I'm sure the value of gas block pins I've lost before buying one of these far exceeds the price OP's asking.
If you find yourself installing gas blocks more than once or twice a decade, then it will pay for itself.

Probably the best all around barrel on the market for the price

Review for
Noveske Lo-Pro Gas Block 5.56 Barrel
It's a Noveske Barrel. That sentence alone should impart a feeling of reverence in the presence of greatness. Is that hyperbole? No. They punch above their weight, and always deliver consistency.
It's accurate, well made and at 11.5, resides in the goldilocks zone of ar applications. It's slightly heavier than the average 11.5, but you really, really want it that way.
No barrel issues, even under heavy course of fire. It's got about 3k rounds on it at this point, and I think it might shoot better than new.
I followed the included instructions on barrel break-in. After 30 + years of shooting and building AR's, I can't think of anything in the AR world that impresses me these days quite as much as the Noveske barrels.
While the accuracy is more than acceptable with range quality 55gr's, I've found the best results from 100-300 with 77gr pills.
