    Someone needs to design and 3D print a SRO battery door tool.

    My most recent Aimpoint micro style Holosun (403R) came with this plastic battery cover tool.

    Well, that little thing is cool. If we ever get a G26 MOS in the US that would be an RDS to try on it.

    In my experience, plastic tools do not allow enough torque to properly seal the doors on an SRO. I use a torque wrench at 10 in-lb. Most plastic tools distort at less than that.

    I witness mark the crap out of all my SRO’s and have never had a battery cover or dot adjustment move in the slightest.

    I don’t know. Reading more, it seems to have issues - zeroing is done by tilting the whole mounting plate.

    Well, I can't find the "real" one (it's in a bag, somewhere), but it was made from one of these.

    Seems a lot of toys and such we get for the grandkids come with a wrench. But they're typically not much of a wrench; usually just one stamped from sheet metal, intended for a one-time use. Turns out, though, that the thickness of many is less than 0.1" (this one is about 0.080") and fit the SRO slot width well. I just cut off one arm of the wrench, round off the other one, and what's left works nicely. For free . . . if you buy the "Some Assembly Required" toys . . .

    I was looking at a SRO on a CORE. Previously the SRO was on a Gen 4 Glock, and took a beating from brass.

    The SRO seems to ride noticeably higher than the RMR. Is that in fact the case?

    At a match this weekend, my wife started missing on a 20 yard plate rack on the second stage. That isn’t like her, so I suggested she grab a spare pistol. We hit our local range on the way home, and checked zero on her Romeo 3 Max. The head shots are at 10 yards and the body shots are at 20. Obviously the zero shifted.

    I’m curious if the zero shift was a mount issue (physical movement of the optic body) or something internal? I’ve seen both on other optics. Any clues on that?
