I know it's been asked a 100 times but how is everyone rds holding up? Botch has it in sale for 299 and I was eye balling it! Or is it worth spending the extra 125 for a Trijicon Mro fro arms unlimited?

I never had any significant problems w/any of my Mepro RDS' but I'd go w/the MRO for the lower weight and brighter dot.

Good price for the RDS!

I have 3 of them, never an issue with them.

I have it on my tavor. havent shot much through it but my only complaint is that i wish it has brighter settings. In bright dayllight its really hard to see. Other than that i love it. The side power/brightniess knob is to the left which is great when using a magnifier.

I have had mine for a few months, and mine works well under the Texas sun. Can't imagine another doing much better unless it has a tinted lens.

I have 3 units. 2 are NIB waiting for a gun to install them on. The other is a unit I love. Almost as nice as the EOTech as far as FOV. I have several thousand rounds downrange with it and zero is spot on.

Some say the brightness is an issue. I have not found that to be true. Shooting in bright sun I use one notch from the highest on brightness.

I am very happy.

Scoured as many reviews as I could.  Was going to pick up on jet for what I thought was a deal but after seeing the price at botach, just ordered like 5 minutes ago.

I can personally attest to there being a difference in brightness between units. All of my Premier Edition RDS' at medium were as bright as my commercial RDS's at high.
In bright Idaho sunlight I found the Premier Editions to be adequate on high (a little brighter would have been nice, though) but the commercial RDS', while visible, definitely needed to be brighter.
