Thought the sro wasn’t anywhere near as durable as the rmr?
Holosun make an sro clone?
SRO is built for speed (big window) and probably isn’t as durable as the RMR.

At distances where sights matter, isn't the whole point of a good RDS (which projects the dot at what seems like infinity) to allow you to focus your attention on what your adversary is actually doing (instead of lining up on a blurry sasquatch doing who-knows-what with his out of focus hands) while also having a nice crisp POI dog painted on his noggin?
I also have aging eyes that are starting to betray me with iron sights, and getting that front blade in perfect focus doesn't do me a lot of good if it renders that bad guy into a giant puffball. An RDS (which also allows me to reliably keep both eyes open) is an entirely different experience once I get past point shooting range.
I wonder why pistol dots are so much life expensive than rifle/subgun dots?
Dear mr pistol red dot guy above- which is your favorite?
Not sure. I guess so. If a red dot helps you hit the target, then great.
I was referring to the comment where he said " Shooting glasses made the front sight clear, and the target blurry", Like it was wrong.
I'm just saying that iron sights, the front sight is supposed to be sharp and clear and the target blurry. You're not shooting holes into a dime, you're hitting a torso size area.
People need to put tape on their sights and shoot. You'd be surprised. Or even close your eyes, press out slowly and you'll hit the target.
As eyesight diminishes, we need to concentrate on what really matters... grip and trigger control.
You're assuming you practice correct grip. How do you assess your grip? By where the shots land?I work very hard on grip and trigger control but that does not mean anything if you can’t see your target. The dot lets you see the target in 100% focus. You are not gestimating where the shot his going on a fuzzy blob at 20 yards, you know.
Sure iron sites still have a place, just not on any of my guns.

I understand about red dots. So what you're saying is that you can't hit a center mass torso shot at 7 to 15 yards or so without sights?
I'm saying shoot without sights once, you'll be surprised.
People put all their time into equipment making them shoot better and zero percent in ability.
Yes, I can hit center mass at 7 yards with no problem without paying attention to my sights. Big deal. Most people can hit the cardboard but is it in the A zone?
What's the A zone? Competition shooting? Who cares about that?
Blaster, we all love you, but you are not the only person out there who can shoot a pistol correctly, quickly, and accurately, and casting immediate doubt on anyone who claims they do is not necessarily reasonable behavior.
My personal suggestion is that once you've got your gun, you should take the Modern Samurai Project with Scott Jedlinski at the next available opportunity. Fantastic class that will teach you how to shoot red dot pistols at a high level - plus give you a lot of insight into the sorts of issues with grip and trigger control that blaster is discussing.
ETA: I won't even get into how top-level irons shooters are target-focused about 95% of the time, and really only go to front sight focus for the toughest shots.
