Recommend a Tavor 21 Reddot or holo around $500?

I'm still biased toward looking for something with a real reticle so it doesn't depend on electronics working. Maybe a low-magnification or no-magnification scope? Optional illumination would still be good.

That is the reason I bought these on the pic rail mounts.
1x power magnification but with a pretty handy always "ON" reticle that focuses the eye.

The tritium is worn out though.

do you still like it?

I do. I had the CTAR out a couple of months ago and did still appreciate the wide and clear field of view. If one could be found at a good price I would say go for it.

For $500 you could get ballpark a Vortex red dot and 3x magnifier. I'd go that route or 1-4x, 1-6x Bushnell scope with illuminated reticle.

Checkout the Vector Optics 1x prism. Excellent bang for buck, better than the PA in my eyes.

If you don't got an astigmatism the Romeo5 is a hard red dot to beat for the $.

I use an EoTECH 512 on mine. It gets the job done.

Aimpoint Pro on my X95. I like it - though bang for your buck, love my Sig Romeo 5. I actually like it more then the Aimpoint.

Holosun 512

I should have mentioned that the rail that’s on my Tavor is a riser rail. I need something that mounts low and doesn’t have a riser built in.

So far the mepro and that holosun 512 are looking good to me. I may look for a used option before buying new though.

Sig Sauer Romeo5 with low mount...

Sig Sauer Romeo5 with low mount...

Thanks! It all looked like one piece to me.

I've got a Tavor 7, 3x Primary arms prism on it. Works great, and it weighs 8oz.

Holosun 510c... It's a better Eotech at under $500

Holosun 510c... It's a better Eotech at under $500

This advice makes sense for someone with 18 posts...better than an EOTECH? Maybe if you like chicom junk.

The Holosun 510c is an ok entry level optic for the range, but an open-emitter budget red dot in no way compares to a military grade holographic sight.

I have slight astigmatism so I don't like red dots. Eotech are great but expensive. PA or Vortex prism are a good option.

right up until the battery connections need to be replaced.

I've seen the Holosuns pop up in Ukraine and the middle east. The PLA uses them as well. I think they're a rugged optic. I haven't heard of any failures. I have slight astigmatism and the 512 is the only red dot that I can see perfectly clearly. The 507 pistols sights work well for my eyes as well, with only some slight distortion.

I have Holosun AEMS on my X95. Love it.
