shield mini sight
Hi does anyone here use a shield mini sight.if so how good is it for upto 25yds,is zero always held,is there a good warranty.any advice or information would be appreciated
Re: shield mini sight
Yes ran one for a while . Did the job and held zero but what lets it down is the dot and screen quality .
In the end I wanted a precise dot with a larger screen area for pick up speed so went Eotech .
The shield is ok but check others out would be my advise

Re: shield mini sight
What are you putting it on? Its just that all micro sights can suffer from 'missing dot syndrome' if they're on a pistol, due to the small window, they're also slower to acquire on rifles/shotguns at times too, but sometimes they're the best/only viable option e.g. slide mounted on a pistol

Hi blackstuff it is for practical .22 rifle shooting and gallery rifle.so many options out there but I heard good things about the shield.can you suggest anything
Re: shield mini sight
I had a couple of the mini sights and got rid of them. Main reason is the auto adjust caused problems for me in certain situations.
I know have two of their SIS sights which are fantastic and solve all the problems I used to encounter.
The only other red dot I would give a home to is the C-MORE

Re: shield mini sight
Bit left field here but have a look at the vortex 1-4 scopes. They are essentially a red dot at 1x and have a great reticle.
Not too expensive and a good scope too.
Their sparc and venom red dots are also good

Re: shield mini sight
I've run the sparc 2 red dot . Although not a miniature red dot sight found this to be better than a shield . Competitively priced and decent warranty you could do worse - but the glass again is not completely 'true' - take a look down it and you'll see what the problem is .
Aimpoints are all nice and ooze quality at a price .
Eotechs also nice but a bit fragile and also not cheap

Re: shield mini sight
To be honest it's between the shield and sparc 2.price is a major factor,warranty and best value for money
