Found these.


TRS-32

For the price, it looks promising for budget minded shooters.

Bigger than the TRS-25, but you don't have to worry about finding a proper mount for it.


TRS-25 with High Rise Mount

Finally offering this with a proper mount. Ive seen a few of these red dots, they seem fair. I like them over the SPARC because of the controls.


First Strike High Rise

Interesting to say the least. Another RDS style offering.
 
5moa is pretty big red dot for me on that TRS-32. I like how their moving towards the 30mm tubes stuff but at that price point I'd still prefer vortex's line up.
 
I have the Tasco version of the TRS-32, I think they are identical according to the specs. The 5 MOA is a big dot, but works well for most of my shooting within 25-50y. It was only intended to be a cheap/short term optic while I was figuring out what to spend my money on, but it has been ok so far.
 
definitely like the first strike/ razor/ C-more sts/ etc....copy. same thing as a bushnell holosight/ eotech comparison.....
 
I have ran the TRS-25 on a carbine course and it help us nicely. for the money it is a good small red dot. I want to buy a vortex or even an aimpoint in the future but for now I am content with my TRS-25
 
I have a Vortex SPARC and a number of TRS-25's. The SPARC has nothing on the Bushnell and the Bushy's battery life is at about 3000 hours. I have had no issues shooting to 300m on steel with the TRS and its 3 MOA dot.

Why not a fixed 4x then - makes no sense (to me) to build a 1-4 that you can't use for CQB, kind of like de-alcoholizing beer.

Just curious (lack of experience) as to what makes this reticule useless for CQB.. To my inexperienced eye it looks like "put donut on center mass, pull trigger", unless I'm really missing something?

I have used 3moa dots to 300 meters without issues, Most people run there dot way way to bright and washes out your target

That made me think. Is there actually a variance in the size of the dot on an optic that has 11 brightness settings or is it just the appearance? I always set them just bright enough that I can quickly acquire, and it doesn't seem as large as the dot with full brightness.

no just wash out a 3moa dot covers 9" so what I do is this (62gr bullet 223 @ 3020 fps avg) I Zero at 50/200 and at 300 I use the bottom of the dot as my zero drops them right in there
