optic shopping
Thanks for the reply lurkingknight. Super useful information because I’ve just started thinking about whether I want a magnification option.
I wanted to share my decision on the RDS as well. I went with the Bushnell TRS-25. Without a riser, I actually managed to do a lower 1/3 co-witness with my stock iron sights and it’s comfortable for me to use.
Because it’s Airsoft, my rear sight can’t be lowered enough when I’m using the peep sight, it’s only properly zeroed when I flip it down and use the rear blade style sights.
This is fine since it gives me more peripheral vision and they’re my backup option anyway. It lets me keep that lower 1/3 cowitness at all times and if my optic goes down I can easily transition.
I am considering cutting off the top 3rd of the hood of my front iron sight because it’s getting in the way of my RDS sight picture. I think it’ll work, it’ll end up looking like the front sight on an HK416.
Edited: modified post to say I have a lower 1/3 cowitness
