a Trijicon 1x42 reflex II. I'm building a 11.5" AR for CQB and I'm thinking about this optic. I've used EOTECH'S and was very satisfied with them but I was thinking of maybe trying something different. Any of you fellas tried one of these? Your thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks. Steve.
 
Re: Your opinon on...

Trijicon Reflex sights have a horrible reticle washout problem. It's very apparent if you are shooting from a dark environment into a lit one. I had some experience with the old model. From folks I have spoken with, Trijicon did not resolve the issue on the new Reflex sights.

Try before you buy.
 
Re: Your opinon on...

Not a fan of the reflex at all. I agree that the reticle has bad washout.

I have an astigmatism problem, so aimpoints don't work for me as well.

I suggest that you be sure and look through anything you plan to buy first to make sure it works for <span style="font-weight: bold">you</span>.

Good luck </div></div>

I have a Reflex II with the red triangle, I have much less of a washout problem than the original that I tried a few years ago. I really like the R2, I'd probably buy another one.

I have not used an EOTECH, I have used Aimpoint. I like the R2 better than the Aimpoint that my dad has on his truck gun.
