Joshua's Review of Trijicon 42mm Reflex Sight w/Amber 4.5 MOA Dot Reticle

This optic is not for duty use. Outside in full daylight the optic works fine. The dot is well illuminated by the fiber optic by the sun. Indoor use is a different story. The faint reticle works okay in low light, but as soon as you turn on a weapon light the dot is washed out. Also if you are in a low light building and aim outside into a bright environment the reticle will wash out from the bright light. This can be overcome by running lower third cowitness iron sights, but this is not ideal. I expected a little more from a name like Trijicon. I'm sure the sight would work fine for hunting purposes, but I cannot recommend for life/liberty or duty use.
Pros:
  • rugged construction
  • No batteries required
  • Works well in daylight
Cons:
  • Very reflective front element.
  • Heavy
  • Does not work well in low light situations
Best Used for:
  • hunting
  • Target shooting
Would Recommend: No
