I am not sure if this is a stupid question.  I was wondering since I know alot of red dot sights are not.  I wasn't sure if the fact that it was a reflex sight made a difference

Thanks

Im pretty sure anything thats non magnification or single lens is paralax free.



I think.

Mine appears to be.  That was my main selling point.

Now if I could only sight the damn thing in...  Didn't have the right tools when I was at the range.

I did some experimenting with my EKP-1S-03M and, as near as I can tell (with my tired old eyes), the POI does not shift when you place the dot (by shifting your head)to the side/top/bottom of the lens.

As an aside; mine definitely does not return to zero after dismounting/re-mounting; unless you conside 9 MOA high and 3 MOA left "close enough". Yes, I did follow the posted mount adjusting instructions to the letter.

Luck,

SD

Close to parallax free. You can fix it on the bench and move around to see the dot on the same target, but it does shift a wee bit. I have never seen any red dot totally parallax free.

I took my EKP-1S-03M and my SAM-7S to the range last weekend. Sighted it in at 50 yards using Uly HP ammo. 10 shot goups were under 2 inches at 50 yards! Twice I took the sight off then put it back on between 10 shot groups. I could not detect any change in the zero. Maybe the quality of the side rail has some bearing.

I'll try unmounting/remounting again. Maybe I got a hampster stuck in the rail last time.

Best,

ive mounted/unmounted mine at least 20 times, and it still holds zero.
Im very suprised at how accurate, and how well these kobras hold zero.
