From what I've seen it's supposed to be on the brighter side of daylight visible. But it will wash out against bright backgrounds on a sunny day. I think it's a great optic and would personally have no issues owning the G1 if I had a use for it. I almost ordered one recently myself but decided...

Yikes, I've had good experiences with Sig on a few scope warranty claims, but those were mechanical in nature. I knew the 5 year electronics warranty applied to the scopes, but it really never occurred to me what that would mean for Sig's rangefinders. So far my Kilo 2000 still works flawlessly...

P4Xi G1 reticle is not daylight bright. At the price point the G1 goes for, it is definitely a viable option in the $400 price class. For what the P4Xi with P3TR reticle costs now, there are better options like the Delta Stryker.

Under $400, I would look seriously at the Delta Hornet as well.

This is a highly underrated optic with MeoStar level image/glass properties. Tenebraex caps as standard is a nice touch on these. I have one of these on a 18" Grendel AR used for hunting and really think it's one of the best scopes optically that I own. I'd say this was Meopta's attempt at...

My experience with Sig was that their CS is excellent, but I've had to use it a few times. Had a few Tango 4s that needed some work (old 3-12x model). Sig made it right both times. I've had issues with nearly every scope manufacturer I've purchased from in the past. Sig and Vortex were the two...

Mine is going on a CZ 457 (17 HMR). This is a very versatile optic. I almost decided to put it on a Defiance Anti/.280ai Bartlein in an MDT HNT26. It's definitely nice enough for a fancy bolt action (hunting or precision), DMR-type semi auto, or an accurate rimfire. I can't really think of a mid...

No manual was included with mine either.

Mine comes in at 28.35 ounces (803.71 grams). My box did not contain a sunshade and does not appear to have provision for one. I went on the hunt in the safes to find one that would fit. So far the 2" sunshades from a Bushnell LRTSi 3-12x44, Bushnell LRHSi 4.5-18x44, and Sightmark Pinnacle...

I have four SBRs set up for home defense. Since I have a bad astigmatism (that so far 4 of my 6 kids have inherited), I've settled on Primary Arms 1x Micro Prisms.

Also consider the Delta Hornet 1-6x24. I prefer the reticle options over the RT6 and the turrets match the reticles (minor issue, but it always bugged me about the RT6). The Hornet and RT6 are made in the Philippines.

It’s a basic budget build for a budget round. I didn’t want a high end build for this so I went cheap with a generic Cero Forge Upper/Anderson lower/UTG Forerunner (Titanium barrel nut) handguard. Gas block is a non-adjustable steel (.750 set screw type) from Luth-AR. I know some folks say you...

I didn't want another 5.56/Wylde, 300BO, 6.5G, 6ARC, or .308 build and assembled a 7.62x39 build with parts I had around and a POF 16.5" barrel when they closed them out. With Duramags, enhanced bolt/firing pin, and a Larue MBT (with extra power springs) it has been flawless. No adjustable gas...

Don't be so hard on yourself. I had a Leupold VX-R Patrol 3-9x40 and sold it AND I had a PST Gen 1 2.5-10x32 FFP and sold it.
