| Have any of you used the C-More sight for your A-3? CDNN is selling them for $299.00. I shoot High Power with my irons but am looking for something to mount directly to the flattop where I can shoot both eyes open. I'm open to suggestions. Thanks in advance! |

I was tempted to buy one about four years ago. As I recall, criticism was placed on it it's high list price at the time, inapproprtate design for tactical use and power consumption. The design flaws noted were the open 'lens' that could easily be obscured with dirt, dust or mud, and the design and placement of the windage and elevation knobs. I really loved the idea that a Colt rear sight assembly was built into the design. At this price I think I'll get one myself. |
| Two of the biggest issues with this sight were it was a pain to zero. The adjustments had no clicks at all, so it was just a move it a little this way, a little that way and make guesses. Then... once you had it zero'd you have to lock the zero in. When you applied the lock, it adjusted the settings and you were off your zero again. There are many other optics available at closr to the same price which are much more durable, and easier to work with. (Aimpoint, Reflex, EoTech) |
2nd the EOtech |
| I have a C-More, Aimpoint, and EOTech sight on each of my three ARs. I like them all. I haven't shot with the EOTech yet (just arrived today), but I like its looks and function so far. I like the C-More because it doesn't feel like you're looking through a tube. Same with the EOTech. You really can't go wrong with any of them. The best thing to do is check them out on someone else's dime at the range, or at a gun show. See what works best for you before you take the plunge. |
Good point on the 1x Aimpoints though. |
