[sigh] I'll stick to the red dots with a circle/dot reticle, like the HS503c. Just prefer that configuration for fast target acquisition.

Wow lifetime warranty and the dial, Maybe I'll get a few of these one for a .22 and one for a 12g since I cannot justify a Aimpoint for either. Maybe some black Friday pricing make me jump quicker.Looks good.

Lets say, I'm a high speed low drag super duper operator guy and I'm in a pressurized C17 Globemaster at 30,000 feet. The cargo ramp lowers and suddenly the aircraft depressurizes. Then I jump out of the back of the C17, free fall in a HALO jump with a Claymore strapped to my head, pop my chute at the last moment until SPLOOSH I've landed in salt water. Now I get in my underwater delivery vehicle and I'm 15 feet below the surface of the ocean, zipping towards the shoreline. So my optic went from normal atmospheric pressure to very little atmospheric pressure to extra pressure deep underwater, all in about five minutes. That's differential overpressure. Our $149.99 red dot will not do that. It absolutely will freaking die. If you're that guy and you're doing that stuff, buy the Aimpoint. If you're like me and you're a high drag low speed chubby white dude who likes to knock over steel plates at 100 yards on a square range every other weekend, our optic should last a really really long time doing typical range day stuff like that. |

ETA: $69.99 "blem" MDS (read description in quote box below). The MD-RB-AD-SP comes with a removable 1913 MIL STD Picatinny base. With the base removed, the scope body is NOT compatible with industry standard micro mount systems. The scope body was machined incorrectly at the factory, so MD-RB-AD-SP is ONLY compatible with the removable base and riser mount that are included with it in the box, and will not fit other aftermarket mounts. MD-RB-AD-SP is considered a factory blemished optic for this reason. |

Maybe my so called "scientists" still can't actually figure out how to build a working guidance system for my long range missiles. (remind me to execute their families when I get home tonight after the latest "successful launch banquet")... Maybe the quick solution is to strap a "volunteer" to the nose cone at the top of a submarine launched ballistic missile on a course for the war bases of the capitalistic imperial evil oppressors in Guam or Hawaii using this new magic technology of the "Red Dot Sight" to guide the missile to strike it's target accurately with furious vengeance and fire delivering oh I don't know, how about we say "Holiday Gifts & Christmas Presents"... So, going from a Sub to the Sky to Space and back again is the opposite of what you claimed would break your sight (because it comes back to the level it started from), so it should still be good to go right? Question - in case something goes wrong, is still covered by your "Life Time Warranty", and is that the 'Lifetime' of the Purchaser (my Regime - however many weeks it may have left) or of the end user (The patriotic "Volunteer", Mr. Park)... ? Please let me know soon, as the Holiday sales are here, and the Orange Hair Buffoon Trump has imposed yet more economic Sanctions on my peaceful and productive Proletarian Paradise of the People... Sincerely Yours, Rocket Man

This PA Optic is good for 99.5% of the guys that have a 40hr a week job. Secret squirrels, black ops, super ninja, contractor no name tag guys are not 40 hr a week peeps. I have had my PA sight on my AK for 5 years. Still working and glad I paid the price for the item back then.
So PA here is my question for you........ what about the RDS that was purchased prior this this new awesome lifetime warranty? What if it happens to go down? Is the lifetime warranty avaliable? Just curious. |

Since I have my own milling machine, I'm kind of wondering if I can just machine my own base plate to adapt the "blem" version to a QD rail mount. Mine just arrived, and looks great! I have no problems using the supplied mount to stick it on a new pistol build, but it would be interesting to see where it's really out of spec, and if that can be surmounted.

It does a really good job of giving the exact same cowitness as brand A. Here's a product picture we took recently, look now nicely it lines up with our magnifier using our Primary Arms brand 1/3 cowitness mount.

Mike I appreciate what you're saying when it comes to the this is no T1 it won't withstand a HALO jump into the ocean. While I understand the point you're making there, my question is would you consider this durable enough for LE patrol car work then?

Mike I appreciate what you're saying when it comes to the this is no T1 it won't withstand a HALO jump into the ocean. While I understand the point you're making there, my question is would you consider this durable enough for LE patrol car work then? If you were a cop in Oklahoma my answer would be an unqualified "yes" without reservation. But your location gives me pause and I'm going to edit this post or add another post later on when I get some more information about extreme cold performance. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By PA_Mike: I see you're in Alaska and I'm taking that into consideration. Been up there myself, have a cousin up there who was stationed at Elmendorf AFB for many years. I've brought this situation up to engineering and they are going to look into what cold weather testing was done so I can get back to you with an intelligent answer. Our best guess without doing further research is that you are probably going to be good to go until you get below -20F or so. At that point the rubber waterproofing O-ring in the illumination knob is likely to freeze up so solid that the knob won't want to turn and your illumination won't be adjustable anymore. Our guess is, that's gonna be the first thing to go south when it gets stupid cold. If you were a cop in Oklahoma my answer would be an unqualified "yes" without reservation. But your location gives me pause and I'm going to edit this post or add another post later on when I get some more information about extreme cold performance. |

PA_Mike, Will the KAC Aimpoint Micro Battery Cap work with the MD-RB-AD? Also, awesome post by the way (pressure differential)! I tried. The PA battery cap has a larger thread circumference. It won’t work. |

Thank You You don’t have to have .22LR stamped on your lower. Here is my suppressed .22LR SBR. It is built on a multi-cal stamped lower.  Attached File(With Primary Arms Micro Red Dot mounted) |
