Title: Any reviews on the Truglo Tru-Brite Open Red Dot Sights?
Post by: joffutt1 on March 11, 2012, 12:39:55 PM
Does anyone have any thoughts on these.  I have zero clue what to get as a scope/red dot.  My price range is about $150 and below.  I was looking at the Turkey BTR which is a good deal but thought the fast target acquisition of this sight may be better with all the options it has for reticles.  Thoughts?

What's the sight on your other guns? Is this a better option than the Nikon turkey btr scope?

The other 2 are Burris FF2s and yes for turkey I like these better than scopes.

Got one, mounted it on my 835 with a Weaver rail. Wow does this thing sit high. I can actually see between the rail and the sight. Not sure if I am going to keep it. For ME as it sits on my gun it will definitely require some sort of comb raising kit cuz I am not a fan of having my cheek off the stock when I touch off a turkey load! As for the actual sight, the thought of reticle options was nice, but I think I would just go with the dot.
