Need Some Opinions on an optic
4/20/2012 12:17:17 PM
So I'm looking into buy a new optic for my rifle. For starters I'll be using for some coyote hunting, training, and if I ever get around to it 3gun. With that out of the way I've spent an ridiculous amount of time in Bigjimfish's variable power review thread, and I've narrowed my choices down to a few sights.
-Trijicon TA31
-Trijicon TR24-3
-SWFA SS HD 1-4x
-Or a T1 with a 3x magnifier
I have spent so much time reading reviews for all of these optics, all are very good, and I believe I would be happy with any of the choices. But I want to alleviate any possibility of me being disappointed with my expensive choice, so any first hand experiences, preferences, or any reviews not in BigJimFish's thread would be awesome. And please no "My buddy's friend heard at gun show..." type of responses, just want first hand experience.
Thanks in advance

Really, no one has used any of these? Or have any suggestions of something in the same price range of about $1000? Oh and thanks Screwdriver

I haven't looked though an actual TR24-3 but my friend has one of TR23-2 and it has decent glass. The biggest thing I didn't care for was the dot looked small to me. This should be similar for the 1-4 model.
