| are the C-more sights any good? are they durable and what is battery life on them. I am looking for a budget red dot optic and I was woundering if the c-more is a good choise. thank you |

I ran one for awhile on a M4gery. It did fine, held zero and all that fun stuff. Mine was the tactical model with the A2 sight on the back. Very handy. I think there was good runs and bad runs on them though. I've heard stories saying the sight was great and heard stories saying you could see the dot fade or couldnt get it to hold zero between mags. |

I've had mine for just a bit now but, I do know the batteries last a long time.... I have forgot to turn it off on 2 different occasions: Both times in excess of 12 hours and the battery still has bright red laser power. I dunno I like mine.... I'm not in law enforcement or military... So its usage fits me just fine. |

I've owned mine (C-more Tactical) for over 5 years, and it still uses the original battery it came with. Its been left it on for over 12 hours a few times, its been to the range a number of times, pre-deployment training, and was on my rifle during my year deployment in Iraq. Of course, I mainly use the integral iron sights and only turn on the red dot when I need to. The battery lasts a long time. It takes a little work to get it to zero, but you just have to be a little patient. As for keeping zero, I've never had any problem with that either. The red dot is a Reflex sight for short distances, and not a National Match sight for shooting dime-sized groups at 100 yards. As for durability, it works just fine if you are a civilian SWAT guy who takes it out of the pelican case only when you arrive on scene, or a civilian plinker shooting at paper or metal targets on the weekend. |
