Just got this installed on my rifle today, cowitnesses perfect with my standard height Sig Romeo 5. This magnifier has a ton of similarities to the vortex magnifier, almost makes me think both are being manufactured by the same place. They have the same mount, same adjustments, length, width, eye relief, only difference I can see is some small differences in raised areas on the housing itself where the lettering is on each, and the price of course $70 vs $200. I’m very happy with this so far.

Good comment. I wonder how she holds up to .30's? What's your lever action chambered in? There's a ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐review on their website that states it's working great on 5.56 & .300 Blk 😊 I don't have an AR-10 anymore, but I do miss that bitch...I know I'm going to get the itch, leaning towards 6mm Arc now for the interoperability. It won't be running this combo though, the more I think about it the more I don't care 😁but I figured someone else might want to know how it handled .30 cals.

I have one of these magnifiers, and all in all they are great, especially for the price. Fit, feel amd finish exactly on par woth the Vortex magnifier. I, personally, mount the magnifier opposite to the right hand/ left hand instructions, as it maximizes my field of view whem the magnifier is flipped off the red dot. The only criticism I have is I don't feel my optic has a 2.5 inch eye relief, more closer to 1 inch. As it's mounted on an AR15, I'm not as concerned, but would not mount this on a .308, or anything with stronger recoil.

I have a similar problem where the red dot appears smeared upwards when looking through the magnifier. When I looked through it from a much lower perspective the dot looks crisp and normal but I lose eye relief and can't see anything. I have the problem with or without the shim at any focus. Is this similar to what you experienced? I can't for the life of me figure out how to fix it. I have had the issue on two different combinations of magnifier + red dot now and I can't find any info on it. (It's not an eyesight related issue)

Not at all. However, some people preferred it because they have 45° offset iron sights that they also want to be able to access when the magnifier is not deployed. Also a benefit for lefties, and left eye dominance. We have other magnifiers that flip to the right. Check the site! Thanks for your input!

@TacticonArmament

No, you'll want to use your non-dominant hand (the one not on the handgrip and trigger) to flip the magnifier to your non-dominant side. Your red dot should be shot with both eyes open anyway, so it's irrelevant which side the magnifier is on. The magnifier flips far enough to the left as to not impede either eye.

You absolutely do not want your magnifier to flip to the left if you are a right handed shooter. When you flip it out of the way you want it off to the right so it doesn't block your view with your left eye. There is no way this doesn't block the view of your left eye when flipped to the left. Watch any garand thumb, 704 tactical or any professional right handed shooter use a magnifier. They ALL flip them to the right. One of the advantages of a red dot is that they have little to no parallax so you can shoot with both eyes open without a negative impact on accuracy. Blocking your left eye will seriously decrease your situational awareness especially at close range.

I eventually ordered the magnifier and was able to use it for the first time this weekend. It works well with the Tacticon micro-red dot. When I first installed it on my rail, I noticed the magnifier was slightly misaligned. So I had to loosen the nut and retighten it while ensuring that it aligned perfectly in a straight line behind the red dot. I shot tight 1 inch groups at 25 yards. I recommend it especially since it’s inexpensive and I didn’t want to spend hundreds of dollars on name brand optics. I recommend it for budget minded owners.
