Well done Optics Planet. The Sentinel II arrived in only 6 days with USPS. It looks great; not even a scratch on the package. I studied it closely before purchase. The only hitch is backing out the original screws on my Springfield Hellcat.Can't do it with small tools provided. Gunsmith can with bet...

Nice sight but….
The sight looks great. Doesn’t go bright enough for daylight with snow. Shake awake is pretty rough. You really have to shake it pretty hard.
Low Quality and Unreliable
I've had three of these dots, all of them had issues in under a year and less than 1,000 rounds. I carried one for everyday for almost a year straight, it held zero very well, the green dot was decently crisp and round. The finish on the metal differed drastically between all three of them straight out of the box. The glass coating differed between them as well. The shake awake is hit or miss, requiring violent shaking to turn on, if it turns on at all. There are higher quality dots for less money, I do not recommend buying this dot. DO NOT CARRY THIS DOT.
Pros:
- Holds zero
Cons:
- Unreliable
Best Used for:
- Safe queen
Would recommend: No
Swampfox Sentinel II 1x20 Dot Sight (Green)
Currently running a Swampfox Sentinel II on my P365 X Macro with the Ironsides Stainless Steel Shields and first thing you notice about it, is how aesthetically pleasing the optic looks paired with the shield. It looks and feels robust. Easy installation. Fired off 500+ rds and the optic and shield remains intact. This is a stellar beginner friendly optic that was easy to install. The dot is crisp and easy to find on target. The shake to wake is extremely effective when unholstering. I'd say the only downside is having to uninstall the optic to change the battery, but other than that, it functions as advertised. One thing to keep in mind: if you intend on running the back up iron sights, you might have to swap out your front sight for something taller to be able to co-witness.
Pros:
- easy installation
- Crisp dots, well made, good adjustable brightness, uses a fairly common button battery, holds zero solid.
Cons:
- bottom loaded battery
Best Used for:
- concealed carry all year
- EDC & range
Would recommend: Yes

My EDC Optic
This is my first Swampfox product. I was hesitant in my decision to purchase it because I couldn’t find enough reviews, but so far, this has been a pretty nice red dot. I love the design. It has a modern look to it and it feels durable. I mounted this site on my Ruger Max 9 and it fits like a glove. Although the battery is bottom mounted, it’s not an issue for me. I like the fact it has an option to add the rear site in front of the optic. It’s a good backup if the battery dies. The 3 MOA seems pretty typical and it looks clear. It seems to have all the hardware needed to mount it to your gun. No complaints as of now.
Pros:
- good quality
Cons:
- None
Best Used for:
- EDC
Would recommend: Yes

Swampfox Sentinel II 1x20 Red Dot sight
Great red dot! This product was reviewed in an article comparing top name red dots sight to economical red dots. the review directed me to Optics Planet and have purchased several items from company.
Mounting was easy, and did not have to adjust the sight once installed and have put 100 rounds through the pistol with sight installed.
Use: no issues with the shake and wake feature, turning on and off is very easy, and very happy with this product, and will look for more Swampfox products in the near future when needed.
Optics Planet Customer Service: Great and consistent; I called this order in and went smoothly, no issues.

Decent Optic
Overall I like this optic and its features for the price. Shake awake is important feature to me. Having the ability to mount a rear site turns out to be a nice feature that I've not seen on other optics. Only issue is that the battery compartment is on the bottom so you'd need to take the optic off to replace the battery, then remount and re-zero it. Guess this is the one compromise for an optic at its price point.
Pros:
- Price
- Large Window
- Shake awake
- Clear window
Cons:
- Battery location
Would recommend: Yes

Swampfox Sentinel
Awesome optic. I have on an XD Mod 2 45 ACP carry weapon. Easy to use features. Rugged. Not too big. Excellent proce point compared to Holosun which I typically use. Would definitely recommend.
Pros:
- Easy to Use Features. Price.
Cons:
- Would love more dot options/sizes
Would recommend: Yes
Nice optic
I was pleasantly surprise with this optic. All the features one expects from an optic these days including shake awake although not having multiple reticles and just a 3 MAO dot. Nice big window in contrast to the Holosun 507K I had. Really like the feature of having a rear stealth tritium co-witness iron site since I had to remove the rear iron site in order to install an optic plate on the pistol. The one downside of this optic in that the battery is mounted on the bottom of the optic so the it will have to be removed and re-zeroed during a battery replaced. However, IMO it's reasonably priced. It includes all the accessories and even an optic cover that not even Holosun includes with their optics. I'm pleased with this optic for the price and features.
Pros:
- None
Cons:
- Battery location
Would recommend: Yes

Super Beefy
This little dot is a tank. Super thick glass and even thicker housing. I have "ironsides" on my gen 1 justice dot but idk if this dot needs them. Huge improvement ofer the original sentinel. I put one on my CZ P-01 and love it. I had my slide milled to RMSc and swapped my front sight for the tall Dawson. The setup is amazing!
Pros:
- Price
- bright
- Strong & highly dependable
- rear sight built in
Cons:
- None
Best Used for:
- Compact Handguns
- Subcompact
Would recommend: Yes
