Reviews & Ratings for TruGlo Dual-Color Open Red Dot Sight — 8 reviews — Page 1

Mounted on Rugger 10/22 and using it in Steel Challenge. Works great! The brightness adjustment is awesome future and helps on bright sunny days and dark dreary days. Love the ability to go from red to green and the differing sights. Just a great sight for not a lot of money.

I have one of these on one of my 22 rifles. Bought a cheap offbrand from Amazon. Broke within the first few months. But another these from Optics planet Sighted it in like in five minutes. dead on. easy use easy to turn on and change colors. great simple inexpensive red dot

OVERVIEW
-------------------------------
I received this RDS from TRUGLO in exchange for my honest and unbiased review. Secondly, I have purchased several TRUGLO products; from Iron Night Sights, Red Dots, and Scopes prior to receiving this product so I have experience with several of their products as an actual consumer.

This review is on the TRUGLO TG8370B Red Dot Sight w/ Single Reticle. The TRUGLO TG8370B is a "reflex" style RDS with a very wide FOV (Field of View) with a larger 5 MOA Red/Green Dot for faster target acquisition.

The TRUGLO TG8370B comes with a Limited Lifetime Warranty.

BUILD QUALITY & MOUNTING
-------------------------------
Keep in mind, this is a budget-friendly RDS, not an upper echelon RDS like EOTECH, AIMPOINT, etc. For the price amount of this RDS, do not expect it to hold up and be as durable as those optics. With that in mind, overall the build quality is good. I no real qualms with it as I don't run, fall, crawl, dive, dip, dodge into mud or any sort of terrain that would require me to have a top of the line optic. I simply use this an AR Pistol for recreational use both indoors and outdoors; nor have I dropped my AR Pistol purposely or accidentally to see how the optic holds up.

The TRUGLO TG8370B is very lightweight with a compact design that isn't considered "micro" nor is it too large and cumbersome or smaller rifles, shotguns, etc. I have it mounted to a self-built AR...

I like the vivid red and green dot that has adjustable brightness. That is useful more often than I would have thought. The only issue that i have had is that in very bright conditions the sight window is very reflective and difficult to see through. I have to just take it off to shoot trap, and I think that might take it out of being zeroed.

This sight mounted easily and the up-down / R-L adjustments were easy but the window had a "curtain" around it when ever the power was on. This was very visible aiming into shade or darkness. Like you can see the epoxy around the glass or something. I hope the third one is the "charm"
Pros: Easy to mount & dial in

I was prepared to spend a few hundred dollars on a high quality sight, if this one didn't work, but I was plesantly surprised.I use this sight for steel challenge and it works very well. Normally for these events, most shooters use an 8MOA or bigger dot, but the 5MOA on this one works very well for me. Most bullseye shooters use a 2MOA dot, but again, this one works well, as I can shoot groups of 1 inch or less, off a sandbag at 25 yards with good quality ammunition. Keep a good battery in it and it's bright enough for a sunny day at the of shooting.
Pros: Good brightness, holds zero
Cons: None
