I've had two SRO's (5moa and 2.5moa) on my match and training CO pistols for the last ~2 years.
The training SRO has approx 15k through it. I did have one issue with the training SRO very early on when it had less than 500 rounds on it. It got dim and would hardly visible even at the highest brightness setting. I sent it in for repair and they fixed it and sent it back. I haven't had any issues on it since.
I use the kydex piece that occludes the window when I need to deal with shooting directly into the sun. This has happened to me 3 times in a match. Shooting into the sun can be tricky whether you're shooting irons or RDS. There was a stage at nationals a few years back in Florida that I shot on the production super squad and there was a no-shoot swinger at about 15 yards directly in to the sun over the berm. Most of the shooters on the squad had misses or horrible hits on that target.
Are you doing irons behind or no irons? I’m considering PMM integrated rear. I’d prefer irons forward to get the optic rear and keep blowback off the lens but I’m not sure which way yet. Taking advantage of the Jagerwerks sale
Right. I knew that. I meant irons rear or optic all the way back and PMM integrated. Sorry.
