SIG dropped two new pistol optics this week based upon their military ROMEO-M17 sight. These ROMEO-X sights have a 20,000 hour battery life and come in a Pro model with a Romeo 1/Deltapoint footprint for duty sized pistols, and a Compact Model with an RMSc/P365 footprint for subcompact pistols. They use a circle dot reticle and will co-witness with standard height sights, which is a nice feature. MSRP is $459.99 and $409.99 respectively. Check out the overview from SIG:
Introducing the new ROMEO-X optics family. Built from the ground up with industry-leading functionality, the ROMEO-X is the result of our experience developing durable red-dot technology that’s trusted by the military and put into a streamlined civilian package. Featuring a CNC 7075 aluminum housing, intuitive adjustment buttons, a side-mounted battery compartment, and an ultra-low deck height that gives you the ability to co-witness with standard height iron sights.
