I know it's an Aimpoint thread, but speaking about Romeo5's as a budget alternative, pretty sweet sale here. $89.99 with basic mount. https://lockedloaded.com/product/sig...cr2032-lithium

I've bought one new Aimpoint ever, an M5 that broke after a year. I've bought 10 H1/T1/T2 Aimpoints used. Never again will I, or can I, spend the $$$ that Aimpoint wants for it's new sights. Shame really, but free market and all.
MRO. Buy American.
Taxes are pretty high in Sweden, who else is going to pay for all the refugees that they allowed in the country?

I agree Aimpoint Prices are high and with 4 of them now, I don't see myself buying any more. I considered moving my M4S and getting a CompM5 for the smaller size, but just can't justify it.
For beater training guns the Romeo 5 is legit option - I have had one for a year and no problems - for $100 its a heck of a optic (not one I'd put on a duty AR, but it works great on training / fun guns - buy via Brownells for a "Forever Warranty").
How is AR15 Safe Space a sketchy seller? I purchase from them frequently and have provided nothing but great prices, service and support. I have also wheeled and sealed with them on some Scalarworks mounts. Their company story is also pretty awesome, when you consider their company name and that they are located in the San Francisco Bay Area.
And for what it is worth, we, the DoD, do not use MSRP as a baseline price for most of our procurements. If my KO authorized us to purchase at MSRP, he would be fired, especially with the amount of money that my team alone has spent in the last five, let alone 10 years. Aimpoint, is a business, and the costs for raw goods goes up every year, thus the annual price increases. This is the same for every market segment that manufactures products and is the cost of capitalism and consumer spending.
