I have owned a fair number of pistol red dots. I recently acquired two different viridian green dots and I have to say they seem to be a great sight, especially for the money. Curious what others’ long term experience has been with this brand.

Got one with my Max 9. Haven't tried it out because I really didn't want to use it on a carry gun. I thought I might mount it on my g21 but that's is when I learned that the rms c is not what they use on full sized guns.

No idea what I'm going you do with it. Thought about putting it on the Ruger to try it out or maybe using it on a rifle as a back up.

I have a 4 of them. Two of them I have had for around 3 years. One is on my Walther PDP and it does not get shot much but it does get banged around alot and it has not missed a beat. I am a big fan of the green dot.

I just received a factory installed one on a Springfield Ronin AOS.  I will run it until it dies.  Green dot, always on, daylight bright, good co-witness.  I think the pool of good asian dots are improving.

Had one that came with my Springfield Operator 9mm.  First trip to the range it did fine.  2nd and 3rd time out with it, it kept cutting in and out.  As in sometimes we'd pick up the gun and no dot, other times while shooting through a mag the dot would disappear.  I ended up replacing it.
I carry a gun because a cop is too heavy.
