Page 5 - Sig Sauer Air Reflex Sight Reviews

It’s great! Only reason it’s not 5 stars is because instructions suck. Find a YouTube video that does a better job showing instillation. Also, make sure you lock in your adjustments to the windage BEFORE reinstalling the rear sight!! That’s a pain too!

For the price, the Sig Air Red Dot is a perfect fit for my M17 CO2 pistol without having to spend $$$ for a Red Dot. Mounted easily & was easy to get it on target. My only complaint is that the rear sight prevents easy access to the windage & elevation locking screws. You have to loosen the red dot & raise it slightly to loosen the screws. BAD design, obviously. Other than that, it has held zero thru several hundred shots.

Like all Sig stuff quality beyond the pail. Top notch

Product was difficult to install and I had problems focusing on target once installed.

I was able to hold a 2 inch group (except for 2 strays) shooting 10 rounds in 5 seconds. You'd never be able to reaquire your target that quickly with the standard sights, close but the red dot makes it a breeze. I like the low profile too. It does raise the cool factor and I'm more than happy that I bought it!

Since it was made for a pistol that comes in desert tan I would have sent them out in tan and given the buyer the option to make it black but it's nowhere near a deal breaker.

You need to remove the slide to mount the scope. It comes with everything you need to mount it.
THIS SIGHT IS ONLY FOR THE SIG SAUER M17/M18 AIRGUN OR AIRSOFT PISTOLS.

My first pistol dot sight. It really tightened up my group on a M17 pellet pistol w/non adjustable sights. Has good instructions for installation easy to install and sight in.

nothing

If you have a M17 pellet pistol you might give this some consideration. i like it.

Well made product. Included installation tools and battery.

Don't factory install battery on sight.

Have patience installing on gun.

Just got this yesterday and it has made a different for these older eyes. I own a few SIGs and this was a good way to practice breathing and trigger control. So far its been fun plinking when I can't get to the range. Not to mention the savings on ammo.

Small compact, durable, sharp image

Best review on the net regarding this red dot

The red dot itself is very nice. Its well built the dot brightness is just right IMO but what I don't like is that you cant mont the sight directly to the slide. Id like it to be on the slide and not the plate so its a lower profile. It also makes it easier to co-witness which is another big issue for me.

This needs to be able to co-witness PLEASE Sig makes suppressor or taller sights and a badly needed barrel thread protector and adapter. There's literally NOTHING on the market stateside or overseas to order and if so its ridiculously expensive. This pistol needs accessories ASAP! Its the best airsoft pistol I've ever seen or owned but there's nothing for this pistol as far as parts or accessories.
This is a review for the red dot and its good for what it costs but it badly needs to be able to co-witness. So far it works great in day shooting and night but we also needs a night sight option. Shouldn't have to buy the real steel versions that cost as much as the pistol its self. Please make barrel attachment accessories and most of all support your product!!
Its been over a year since release and were just getting the red dot sight finally??

If you use a red dot sight on your Sig P320 carry gun and want more training but with a lower cost this is the answer. My eyes are getting older and focusing on a rear sight, front sight and the target are difficult – a red dot was the answer for me.
Pros
• Great quality that you would expect from Sig.
• Easy to install on a Sig airgun or airsoft gun.
• Dot brightness has 5 brightness settings making it good for bright daylight or lowlight conditions.

Cons
• Instructions are written in very small font making it difficult to read. I needed a magnifying glass. Instructions not available in pdf on Sig website.
• You must remove the sight to change the battery.
• Does not co-witness with the iron sights.
• It does not shutoff automatically, you need to push and hold the power button to turn it off.
• Before making windage and elevation adjustments on the reflex sight you need to loosen 2 locking screws on the back of the sight BUT the rear sight covers the screws. In order to access the locking screws you must loosen the reflex sight on the mounting plate and raise it up slightly to loosen the locking screws. Once loosened the reflex sight needs to be tightened back down so you can sight it in / adjust the windage and elevation. Once sighted in you need to again loosen the reflex sight and raise it up to tighten the locking screws, then tighten the reflex sight back onto the mounting plate.

I just got the M18 and two additional magazines to do indoor drills. The first time dropped a magazine out of the pistol onto a carpeted floor, the impact dislodged the base. Although I was able to snap it back into place, it is clear that it is going to loosen over time as this is going to happen every cycle. I am now dropping it onto a 1" thick home gym interlocking tile, but the base is dislodged regularly. You also can't use the magazine without the base because the base limits its range of motion into the magazine well, and if it is not in place, the magazine will travel up until the magazine feed lips holding the BBs block the forward travel of the slide.
