As good as the vortex spitfire 3x overall but excells in certain areas - SIG SAUER Bravo3 3x24mm Red Dot Sight

So I now own this scope, the Spitfire 3x and the Spitfire AR. After using all three they all have their benefits and are all five star scopes. I write this review in the hopes that it will help others narrow down selection, but in my case I am keeping all three after using testing and comparing. I can't use normal red dots due to astigmatism and all three scopes mentioned solve that issue quite nicely.

Both the Bravo3 and Spitfire3x have perfect crystal clear glass, adjustable diopter, identical magnification.

The Bravo 3 Pro's vs the Spitfire 3x
-Truly wider field of view at all distances; at 12 feet the field of view is about 2ft 3 inches vs Spitfire 1ft 6in
-Shake to wake, you don't have to turn it off, it turns off after 2min and turns back on to what you set it to when you move it... very helpful for someone like me, I strongly believe this feature will result in better battery life for me due to forgetting to turn off the spitfire 3x.

- The scope is set back farther in the mount making eye relief easier to achieve, it will stick out over the charging handle in the most rearward position. I feel like the eye relief distance is about .3 inches shorter on the Bravo3 but it's compensated by the fact that it's set back farther in the mount. It's sort of a wash really.
- More durable body, based on simply holding them I think your upper receiver will break in half long before the bravo 3 does.
- Deflector nubs to prevent you from smacking the adjustment caps against things.

Bravo 3 Cons vs the Spitfire 3x
-Heavier, 600g vs spitfire's 459g; aka 21.15oz vs spitfire 3x's 16.2oz
-No lens covers, but a really fancy box, and the lenses are set back in the housing but I'm a big fan of spring loaded flip ups.
-Only the horseshoe and the center dot are illuminated, the drop and windage part of the reticle are always black. Spitfire 3x has no windage dots on the reticle but the drop is illuminated.
-the base takes up more space on the pic rail

Other observations,
You're going to want to use offset sights with either one, they have to be set way back to achieve eye relief. The magpul offsets take up only 1.5 T marks so they work well behind either of them.
The center pin dot inside the horseshoe reticle is half as big as the Spitfire 3x. that said, the Bravo3's might be harder to see in some conditions the center dot is illuminated.
The pic rails on the bravo 3 are at 12, 3, and 9 o'clock
The pic rails on the spitfire 3x are at 2:30 and 10:30 o'clock
I've used vortex's warranty and was impressed, but I've never had to use Sig's... hmmmm.

Conclusion: Buy this, the Bravo3 and the Spitfire 3x and put them on different rifles.
