Razor Gen 3...

You running it with an offset RDS? Looking for opinions to see if adding on a badger j-arm with a micro red dot would be worth it.

That’s exactly what I’m running. I had a vortex crossfire paired with my 1-6 Razor but figured I’d try one of the Holosuns with this one. I like it quite a bit but as soon as Badger releases the ring replacement to mount it on top, I’m going to try that. The offset RDS obviously adds a good amount of bulk to the gun and it’s only usable with my right hand. I’m hoping the top mounted RDS will be a better ambi solution that’ll also be easier to store.

Didnt know they were coming out with the top mount. This is going to make alot of people with NODs happy.

Glad to hear positive reports about the Razor III coming out.

I may take the plunge in the fall after the craze dies down and more people have time behind them. Plus in the fall I'll actually be able to enjoy shooting it (heat / humidity here in the summer).

Not sure what I'll put it on yet, as I'm happy with the NX8 on my two 16" AR15s and my CM762 is setup for more of a precision shooter with an NXS 2.5-10x42. Maybe on the SCAR 17, or maybe I'll just find a cheap Razor II for that.

I go back and forth on which gun to put it on. Right now it’s on a 12.5 hodge as that’s now my primary so it makes sense as a very capable optic. But I need to shoot groups and find a chrono to compare it against my 14.5 KAC Mod 2 because that could be equally deserving, if not moreso.

On max zoom and 8x, how is the eyebox on this compared to the AccuPower 1-8? Got to look through a Vortex and it was mounted on a weird setup so it was hard to tell, but it still seemed like the AccuPower had the better eyebox for me.

I really wanna find out from you regarding the 14.5 mod 2 vs Hodges 12.4

I do have a RG3 still on 14.5 mod 2. Gotta said I’m not the biggest fan for such set up

It's a little tight on 10x. Not terrible though, plus you can dial it back to 8x. I haven't done a lot of testing with it yet, but this weekend I should.

The only downside I'm seeing is that the translucent reticle doesn't work well for me. When shooting groups it nearly vanishes, to the point that I use the illumination to see it.

That has only been an issue shooting paper, when on steel it works great. I also have been using NRA targets with black centers, and Shoot-NC.

Hey guys, I'm looking at this scope now. For the guys that have their 1-6s, how often did you want the 10x or found the 1-6 reticle too simple?

Couldn't you just adjust your zero so you hold on the lines?
