      Aloha nō my friend! Oh sorry, “Hello!”
      I’m truly sorry for offending you, and making you feel uncomfortable or unsafe speaking Hawaiian; it is my first language and one of several I speak along with English; I still get mixed up sometimes.
      I’m not sure how “safe spaces” work, but I’m sure you could find somewhere quiet and comfortable to go and be to feel safe, maybe use some macaroni or string to create a visible boundary, maybe an “English only” boundary, so you can feel secure because, as I’m sure the vast majority of us in the gun community feel that our own security and safety is in our hands, and every free citizen is entitled to the right of self defense and to be SAFE.
      Again, it wasn’t my intention to trigger you or make you feel uncomfortable, the aim of my channel is to educate and provide a space where we can all share information, experience, and perspectives so we can all learn, and improve ourselves through knowledge.
      Aloha makahiki hou! Oh I’m sorry, so sorry!
      Happy New Year!

      I immediately liked the video, as soon as he mentioned aiming at zombies and aliens. 🤣
      (And by the way, I just ordered the XDR both in the normal red dot+reticle and one in green with a reticle inspired by the film Predator).
      I guess we have different perspectives....
      On a serious note though, I'm not American, but before reading this absurd and pathetic comment, I was honestly thinking about the amazing aspects of multiculturalism in the US, which of course can bring some tensions, but it's really an awesome and unique thing.
      I'm half dutch, half Italian, with Jewish heritage and with other relatives from all over the place, so I really appreciate the fact that in the US there are so many amazing cultures.
      And I have to say, the Hawaiian culture and heritage is probably one of the most amazing ones.
      I'm more than sure that you don't need me to tell you this, but keep that culture alive!
      It's an inestimable treasure for the entirety of humankind.
      And thanks for the well made video, cheers from Italy. 🤙🏻

    The regular Romeo 5 is always the right answer as there is no reason to limit your mount choice for a AA battery. What Sig really needs to do is combine the two by incorporating the flush turret adjustments of the XDR into the regular Romeo 5. 2032 batteries are easy to find and easy to store in the pistol grip.

    I have a Romeo 4t on my M&P Sport II, but unfortunately it doesn’t get used much because of the ammo crunch. Just ordered the M&P 15-22 and the Romeo5 XDR to go with it. Lately, all I’ve been shooting is 22lr.
    Got it for $150, I really like the circle on the 4t and the XDR seems similar. Nice video!

    Great info..
    Luckily I got my Romeo5 for $89.99 off Primary Arms during Black Friday Sale last month..
    I love it.. I just need to find a good range to zero it at.. Right now it's zero'd for 50y. Thinking about the 36y zero. I mainly use mine for hunting Hogs, coyotes & Bobcats on the Ranch. Got a 16" M4 Style upper & a BCA 7.5" 556 upper.

    • @PeaK808
      @PeaK808  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Nice! Primary Arms always has the best deals.
      Several people I work with were using the 50yd zero and have moved on to the 36 have nothing but great things to say about it. As for me I think they’re great reference but I zero my holographics and red dots for MPBR and that’s been working well for me the past several years.
      WOW! I can’t imagine having bobcats and/or coyotes on our place, how exciting and scary! Lol I belong to 300 acres and the worst we have are hogs and sometimes wild cattle, no bobcats.
      I bet a bobcat is much larger than I’m imagining it to be; before I went to the mainland I always imagined raccoons to be the size of a large car but then I actually saw one when I was in university and that guy was WAY bigger than a cat!

    I can confirm the durability of the XDR. I just bought one, and took it out to shoot. My friend installed the optic on my pdw, but unfortunately, installed the little notched piece on the side backwards. The optic didn't hold on very long and fell from shoulder height, right on the corner of the front tube. Apart from idiot scrapes on the case, the optic functions perfectly. Kinda scary at first though, because the front glass is at a very steep angle, and I thought that it was loose or damaged. But, thankfully, that's not what happened.

    On the serious though, good job man. It's nice to hear the breakdown between two of what seem like very similar optics. I can't say that the XDR is for me. I think the other gets better battery life and the EOTech style reticle doesn't seem all that useful and my actually clog up the viewable space.

      ​@@theflypilothey brother, I've tried most major budget dots, the 5 xdr has a good emitter but the astigmatism still causes bloom. Not horrible, it's better than my gen 1 romeo5, but it's still a factor. I'm leaning towards an Eotech but I have yet to look through one so I'm undecided on the best option. The PA micro prism is cool and has no bloom but I love magnifiers and although you can run one, you have to compromise picture quality for magnification and I'm already blind enough. If you ever settle on an optic because it works with your stism let us know what you found.

      Aloha nō my friend, sorry for the late reply.
      I don’t care too much for magnifiers aside from using them to zero, and I don’t have any personal experience with sig’s offerings, but I’m sure it’ll work fine.
      We don’t have deer in the island I belong to (Maui, moloka’i, and lāna’i are infested with axis deer, kaua’i has mule deer and axis) but I have the LOAD of boar around and on the honestead I belong to.
      I regularly use my EOTech (not a red dot sight technically but still uses a dot as the reticle) to smoke them within 100 meters and sometimes a little further out (I got one with my 870 police using the Romeo 5 with a slug at just under 100 meters). I think either of these optics would do you just fine even without the magnifier.
      Not that it would matter much inside of 100, just remember if you’re using a red dot, your dot size will increase relative to the amount of magnification your magnifier uses.
      I hope you have a great weekend! Again, I apologize for the late reply🤙🏾

I know the unity highs are like 2.2 inches...little too much unless using NV but I do like around a 1.93

      The Romeo5s are still readily available here, directly from sig Sauer as well as several other sites I can’t go into detail regarding due to TH-cam’s policy, but if you hit me up on IG, I’d be happy to give you that info.
      I also have several low mounts laying around in a box of extra parts, I’d be happy to give it to you, so again, if you contact me on IG, maybe we could figure out a way to get it to you in Canada, and as the item is neither the optic itself nor a firearm, I don’t see there being any issues with that.

      It depends on what chokes ship with your TS12, though it seems universally the choke that ships INSTALLED with the TS12 is good to go for slugs. MY copy came with an improved cylinder and modified chokes. In speaking with many, many other owners over the past year or so, I’ve heard of people getting different chokes with their TS12 than I did in mine.
      Whether this is true or not, I cannot say, but I can tell you that I run an improved cylinder choke on my TS12 and have run hundreds and hundreds of slugs through it with no issues as long as the shells were to spec.

      Aloha nō my friend thanks for checking out my video.
      Running either of these with their respective higher risers would be a great setup. The TS12 like other Tavors has a lower rail respective to the stock, so a lower 1/3 co-witnessed height optic comes out to be closer to an absolute co-witness in height.
      Just something to be aware of.
      I ran the XDR on my TS12 just to get a better handle on the optic itself, but I didn’t really put too much time into it; I’ve pretty much already settled on my EOTech EXPS2 for several reasons.

    For the comments freaking out hes speaking in a different language at the start .....
    Its for a few seconds.
    Im scratching my head with the confusion
    If its this difficult to comprehend and get triggered by it - then you shouldn't own a gun....
    Hell not even a powerful magazine fed crossbow- which is what i am watching this video for as i need a decentish sight to put it on my tricked out upgraded adder.
    - bite me; im from the uk. Yes we are allowed guns - even some usa isn't allowed! - buuuutttt boi do we gotta jump through hoops and are not allowed to carry around like a cowboy.
    But the crossbow. No licence, restrictions
    Nothing.
    And actually for home defence... - it makes more sense.
    How?
    Ever fired a gun INSIDE your house? Especially in the dark....
    Very loud and disorientating.
    And NO silencers do not solve this issue- still very loud INDOORS.
    And dont think s crossbow is child's play- because those that know, would sooner be shot by a 22 than a broadhead from a half decent crossbow any day! - sometimes even a 9mm depending on vs crossbow make/type etc.
    Also no longer is the achilles heel of a crossbow a thing (aka 1 shot reload. ) as they now have magazines!
    But just to clarify; im not making an argument that crossbows are better than guns.
    What im saying is - courses for horses.
    You want home defence INSIDE and A) dont want to blow there arm off (aka large caliber over 9mm/shotgun - hey think of the dry wall...)
    B) Want stealth, aka shoot with very little noise etc
    C) - are saddistic instead not kill instantly but give them a painfully slow death - use a broadhead (the hollow point of crossbows)
    Then honestly consider it.
    Just make sure you get a make of crossbow that uses a magazine of sorts and quickly cocked.
    Plus how baddass do you look holding a crossbow.
    Nobody looks weedy holding one.
    A perp will be like - holy cow; its not a gun, but a crossbow! - he must be a savage- im outta here...and not one bolt fired!
    Aaannyywwaayyy....
