this or the MRO HD I already have?
cmc_guy@reddit
I prefer the 4T pro, 2032 is the way
3900Ent@reddit
This is DEF BIN for FDE. This is usually the price I see the black ones for. I have 3 4T Pros along with 2 8Ts and when I tell yall, I will not use any other optic than these 2 going forward I mean it.
M16iata@reddit
In your opinion, what makes these so good?
3900Ent@reddit
For the money, this is probably the best red dot in the game. I think it’s up there and even in some cases exceeds the Aimpoint T2. Clearest dot I’ve ever seen, multiple reticles with holds for all applications, rugged, NV capable which I’ve heard is really good (I don’t shoot NV so idk), and protective covers for the lenses as well as kill flashes included. All for under $500.
Only thing that is annoying is where the NV button is and how it operates when you accidentally hit the button. But otherwise you can’t beat it
FuckingSeaWarrior@reddit
I had a pretty bad experience with mine, though I'm probably in the minority. The center dot emitter was fucked from the factory, since it wouldn't emit when the rest of the emitters would, and SIG shipped it back to me broken when I submitted it for RMA. The seller processed my refund, and I wound up going with an Aimpoint instead.
3900Ent@reddit
Yeah that’s wack. To be fair I’ve seen Aimpoints fail right out the box too. I tell everyone, anything that is mass produced can come as a dud. No company is exempt.
FuckingSeaWarrior@reddit
Completely agreed. I'm pretty willing to give companies the chance to make things right if they accidentally sell a dud.
To me, the bigger issue is me sending the optic in for warranty work, with pictures of the missing center dot as proof, and then getting the optic back in the same condition with a note saying they'd fixed it. I can forgive a lemon, but I am less lenient if the company subsequently refuses to make the issue right.

T Rex Arms sells an OHC optic cover that recesses the NV button

3900Ent@reddit
Dawg, $40???? I hate OHC man lmao
skygao@reddit
The pro model is excellent under NV. Best tube style optic I’ve used. The older Romeo4 models are basically identical except they look like garbage under NV. If you’re not shooting NV then the $200 Romeo4S deal at PSA is a solid choice and you won’t be able to notice a difference besides button placement (and even then, the NV button on the pro can be annoying when not using NV).
If you shoot NV, want FDE, or just wanna be Gucci, this is a good price.

The glass is extremely clear and does not have any color distortion (blue tint) like some others have. I just zeroed my 4T pro and my only complaint was the windage/elevation clicks are not audible or tactile during each adjustment. I believe the pro series are 1/2 MOA per click and I didn’t hear or feel the clicks during each adjustment. The click was audible at 1 or maybe 1.5 MOA. Not sure if it’s intentional or my optic has an issue with the turrets.
jtj5002@reddit
It definitely still have a good amount of blue tint when you use it side by side with an eotech, but it does look fantastic under NV.
3900Ent@reddit
Def a turret issue. All of mine are audible and you can feel it
Crash_Override25@reddit
That’s good to know. I figured something was off since the turret had less resistance during adjustments when the “click” wasn’t audible or tactile. I guess I get to take their customer service for a test drive. Thanks
Wu_tang_dan@reddit
I want to love this optic, but the big dumb NV button in the middle kills it.
And yes, I know more than cag and Delta who have been running these or whatever, I'm a tier 0 operator (I drive a forklift).
But really, why did they put that button there?
akathedevil666@reddit (OP)
One hundred concepts makes a cover if u think you might bump it
ThurmanMurman907@reddit
does anyone else make one?
Gazuntite@reddit
I posted this earlier, but a cover exists to prevent the NV button being pressed because I hate it as well. No idea why they made it an instant change vs a press and hold for 2 seconds or something.

Wu_tang_dan@reddit
Fuckin Sig engineers doing that *mind blown* meme right now. "Fucking press and hold for 2 seconds?!?!"
Im not buying a plastic condom for my red dot. My 4S works fine with my NVGs (its two tubes of toilet paper tapped together). But seriously, Im just holding out because I figure Sig will update the button issue at some point.
RNAguns@reddit
Is there a reason besides battery availability that the AA Romeo 4XT is preferable over the CR2032 Romeo 4T? I would think the smaller battery tray/less scope body would make the 4T the clear choice, but it seems people prefer the 4XT.
OnlyPatricians@reddit
Those were made for use in areas where access to a supply chain with 2032s are difficult. That’s not really the case in the US.
If you’re really worried about SHTF, then the AAA is always a good choice as one of the most common batteries throughout the country and most of the developed world.
Echo_Raptor@reddit
AAs are just super common
skygao@reddit
Yeah but with AA you don’t have the option to buy a $50 replacement cap to store your spare $0.75 battery that for sure you need on your rifle at all times.
BrokeShooter@reddit
Yeah but sopmod, TD vfg, grip compartments but I agree with you. I’d rather extra battery cap it and save weight
ecnalprecision@reddit
As the guy who makes the 4t replacement caps. I'm with this guy "extra battery cap it"
skygao@reddit
I was talking shit but still want one 😆
Snoo76929@reddit
AA compatability is the same reason the Aimpoint Comp M4 is way more expensive than the PRO. I guess for SHTF scenarios its a plus since AA is the most common battery
following_eyes@reddit
I get people trying to prep for shtf scenario but realistically most people aren't going to last long enough to worry about their batteries and if they do they have bigger worries and should just have irons.
karlkrum@reddit
never thought about that but if you really want to be ready for SHTF you need to stay in shape and conditioned, AA batteries are lower on the list
Subverto_@reddit
Facts. Irons for SHTF. As an added bonus they don't reflect light and give away your position like all optics without killflash do.
redsox985@reddit
The M3/4/5 have a better % light transmission across a wider spectrum (deeper into IR), but the goofy battery of the PRO is definitely what turns most people off.
there_is-no-spoon@reddit
Doesn't the AA give a lot longer run time?
docholiday06@reddit
i feel like a AAA battery would be better or shtf situations compared to the button battery.
MarlinMaverick@reddit
Great price, I like mine a lot.
MagicManHoncho@reddit
Whats a good magnifier to go with this?
MarlinMaverick@reddit
I have mine paired with a G33
askalmeqt98533@reddit
Eotech G45
akathedevil666@reddit (OP)
If you ask Sig, they will tell you the Juliet.
MagicManHoncho@reddit
I have the Juliet micro 3x and it has a negative eye relief. I have to remove my eyeball and shove it into the empty socket for me to make use of it
akathedevil666@reddit (OP)
Photo?
3900Ent@reddit
I use a Holosun HM3X
PoliteRAPiER@reddit
This or 2 Holosun 503's?
akathedevil666@reddit (OP)
Yes
TheAsianBarbarian@reddit
Black one available?
akathedevil666@reddit (OP)
Oos. Black is available for the 4T pro
TailwindConfig@reddit
I know the difference is just the battery, but anyone have any compelling reasons to get the 4XT-Pro over the 4T-Pro? Consistency wise, the 4T-Pro fits in better with everything else I have - its all CR2032's.
TLA44@reddit
This is BIN. Lowest I've seen in a year
BlasterDoc@reddit
Little more feature rich than an aimpoint M5s
But,
They need to make a M5 version, the aaa battery disappears on top, the lower battery compartment just sticks out and occludes the sight. My one thing I dont love about the ta02 and ta110.
