i think i'm finally happy with this one:

note: first time posting pics, so i wasnt sure of the appropriate file size or if i would do it right, so please bear with me.

it's a bushnell trs-25 (i would have liked a t-1 but couldn't afford it) on an ultimak mounted between a mojo micro-click and my custom front sight post.
the front post is just a bulgarian take-off i ground down with a dremel and repainted
i was going for as open a sight picture as possible while maintaining my irons

you can just barely see the faded ring of the mojo in these - you can't really tell, but it matches up really well with the front post wings when you look down it
here's one with the dot off

and one with with dot on

sorry for the crappy pics of the sight picture, it's the best i could do.  what can i say i'm not what you would call a professional photographer

So, - what do you guys think??

Nothing wrong with the TRS-25, they are a good MRD for the money.  I have two of them, including one on an Ultimak just like you.  It's a great combo that has never given me any issues and the co-witness is nice.  Congrats.



ETA: The bright yellow Bushnell lettering bothered me for some reason, so I blacked it out with a sharpie.  I like things a little more subdued...

yeah, i remember that from a recent thread where somebody was looking for a low MRD.

by the way, what kind of battery life have you experienced with these? - i havent tested mine yet.

Unsure about battery life.  Both my TRSs are only 3 months old, so I'm still on my original batteries for both.  I don't leave them on all the time though.

thanks man,

+1 on blacking out the bright yellow bushnell - i've got to get another sharpy. the only one i could find was dried out

i can't wait to get this to the range, but it'll be a while cause i'm in the middle of moving. -   i'll post a report in the discussions when i finally make it.
