Truglo's or Cablea's 2X red dots?
« on: July 28, 2007, 04:34:14 AM »
Anyone tried one of these scopes? If so what did you think?  Thinking of getting one to squirrel hunt with on my buck-mark pistol.

 The Tru-glow 2x red dot is junk The image is so distorted looking though one of these things it's a miracle you don't throw up. The 'fish eye" effect is so terrible it must be seen to be believed and the field of view is tiny.

If the optics quality was any worse the Tru-Glow  2x red dot would be completely unusable

  I looked at the Tru-Glo but I wasn't impressed.  In addition to that, everything I read about them so far is negative.

What do you think is the best Red Dot for under $100?

I was thinking of Bushnell Trophy.  I like those sight picture options.

Thankyou
