  • no view through the sight?

  • Why the haji bs in the begging?

  • The Coast Guard uses this sight on our M870 shotguns. Crazy right?! Great sight, but recoil does mess the zero up greatly.

  • scripture on weapons, that's fucking ironic. Religion does messes you up.

  • Was that a malfunction at 0:34? :0

  • @MrPissonyourgrave your logic is pretty messed up, however I do like the verses on their optics.

  • guns do not need bible quotes on them imo... what are you trying to make you feel better about killing someone??

  • @kaczka81 the founder of trijicon was a devout christian and when he started making optics he would inscribe a verse on it, and the company has carried on his beliefs to this day

  • @sinlessorrow i'm christian too. i've read the bible several times, but when i write a paper i dont turn it in with my favorite passage on the back..

  • @kaczka81 i think it was more of keeping a tradition alive, if that makes sense

  • Quick question, I have flip up Iron's on my AR, I was going to purchase the Micro T-1 because it would allow me to view my irons through the sight. Does this allow for the same thing?

  • @MoshiMoshiKaji

    I don’t believe in God. My god is patriotism. Teach a man to be a good citizen and you have solved the problem of life. — Andrew Carnegie

  • Good for shotgun or PCC. Dot is too big & still prefer actual scope for rifle.

    So, another Trij review and more proselytizing. That Arabic call at the beginning says "peace of God." I recognize it because it is similar to the traditional greeting, assallum-allaykuum.

    Again, if Jesus were real, I wouldn't need a gun. I keep prepared because I put no trust in supernatural fairy tales.

  • I love this one!I used it on a night shoot at Ft.Dix before I left for Iraq and it hit steel targets at 50 meters in total darkness.

  • This reflex sight is HORRIBLE for .223 or any caliber that is accurate 100yds or farther. The reason is because the dot on these reflex sights is TOO DAMN LARGE (6.5MOA).

    This is a shotgun optic IMO. Was very surprised to see sootch use this on a AR.

  • @EmpathyWorks This optic is designed for inside 100 yards.. If you are shooting over 100 yards, you need to change your optic.

  • One big down side to the Reflex actually all Tritium lamped sights is that they do fade.You have to send the ACOG's in to be relamped at a cost of several hundred buck and was told you can't (or at least they won't) relamp a Reflex. It's like getting a divorce all the free sex suddenly has a large price tag. With the improved electronics and batteries i feel they are the better option for modern weapons sights.

  • You did this entire review and not once did you show the actual reticle...FAIL

  • Is it 3x magnification?

  • really glad u posted this video

    I was having trouble identifying a reflex site i recently acquired and this pretty much answered every question i have

    Thumbs up

  • Do you have one for sale or that one because i have the money.

    

  • I trhink there is a reason the military dropped these and went with Aimpoints.

    My big issue with the Trijicon was it's fragility (many guys on my team had issues with them) and "wash out" of the recticle when shooting from a position of shadow into a lighted area. (i.e. lights from building and houses) I think Aimpoint pretty much solves the on/off issue with it's long battery life. I had one I left on for months and it worked just fine.

  • Hello. I like this little sight. I like the triangle, I hear the tip is veritual no MOA at all, or pin point accurate and the big old triangle makes for fast target acquisition. My question is, do you think you can work this unit with a flip to the side magnifier maybe 3 power???

  • can you get it without the biblical reference? Not to hate on christians, i just dont like religion in general. would be much more inclined to buy if that stuff wasnt on there. any thoughts?

  • Totally love my 2 broken Reflex sights. Ug. Why the freak do these things break so much? The accuracy sucks so don't expect pinpoint tack driving with a reflex but dang I love the sight. Now scared to take it into battle though since I now have 2 broken ones. 1 failed Reflex sight I could dismiss as a fluke but 2 of them? It's still by far my favorite as batteries totally blow. Having to turn a sight on and off just isn't cool. Reflex rocks when working...

  • Amen

  • Wow cool..... you never once showed us what the damn sight looked like sort of one of the most important parts in a review

  • Hey Sootch. You really know how to push my buttons. I've been wanting this for some time. The same setup, with the amber delta. Love it it's robust and simple and like all Trij optics it works. The ACOG is also incredible, have one myself. Great work friend, God Bless. JT out.

  • failure to eject malfunction @ 0:34

  • @jedirifleman owned

  • Oh, also why would you want such a huge fat 12.5 MOA dot?

  • Hey, I heard some where that when the trium runs out, send it to Trijicon and they will refill it for ya free of charge, you cover shipping

  • WOW waste of time.. didnt even show what it looked like idgaf about all that other crap !

  • Does the sight loosen as you send shots down range? Meaning does the clamps hold it securely enough to where it wont budge? I just bought a M&P PS 5.56 and I am looking so hard for a sight that its giving me a headache at times lol!

  • the only thing i dont like is the blue lens...makes it impossible to laser bore sight it because the red doesn't show through.

  • You make good videos. Very informative.

  • i reali thing you are a dum ass.

  • Hey scootch, you still own that ACOG?

  • Willfox go hide in a cave so we can use a bunker buster. I have seen Arabs in action ...... Poor donkeys no wonder the women cover their faces.

  • HA HA STUPID AMERICANS ARE ALWAYS TOO SCARED TO SHOOT IN REAL LIFE.

    ARABS WILL DOMINATE AMERICA, OUR QUIRAN WIL REPLACE YOUR BIBLE, AND YOU WILL BOW TO ALLAH, BUT THIS IS BEFORE WE SHOOT YOU, AND YOUR PIG WIFES

    ALAAHU AKBAR.

  • @willfox12345 BAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA (takes breath) BAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH­AHAHAHAHA. You're fucking funny dude. American soil will never be taken by a foriegn force.

  • @blamsamblam87 havent it already?

  • Comment removed

  • @willfox12345 you know, allah doesnt exists, and if he would he would be ashamed of people having their women dress like a pile of cloth and you praising an old farmer rapist as the second highest person to god.

  • @willfox12345 We wipe our ass with the quran, mohammud was a fake profit and a pedophile. We will shoot down more of your attackers like hasen in Fort Hood, now hes shitting in a plastic bag. We are ready for you and your jihad in America, may your god have mercy because we will not. GOD BLESS AMERICA, we will exterminate you.

  • @MrPissonyourgrave There is no better way to worship the lord then give him more people to judge. Let’s keep sending those evil non-believing bastards to hell. You guys are all full of shit and you are all ignorant. Pick up a science book and move on. The man in the sky is not real no matter what you call him. If you are killing for country he more power to you. Just do us all a favor leave fairy tales in old books out of it.

  • @judas0l7 Haha Hes real. I do belive there is no better way to worship him than to send him non belivers to judge, muslims in the world should be exterminated. Haha Science book? You mean the one that has been rewritten 8 times to suite the needs of non belivers to give them a sense of purpose (which Im guessing is you). I kill to save my furture children from dying at the hands of a muslim trying to get 71 virgins. Ill keep the bible scriptures on my scopes and Ill use them.

  • @MrPissonyourgrave and how many times has the bible been rewritten, reinterpreted and manipulated to suite the needs of the writer or reader? (which I'm guessing is you.) I can use your argument against you. If I needed a sense of purpose I would be a "believer" like you. Also, you must live in a very limited bubble if you think only "non-believers" study and support science. Saying "he's real" is a weak argument. How about you keep "Thou shalt not kill" on your scope before you take that shot?

  • @judas0l7 Haha because muslims just need killing. One may take life in order to save it. Killing them befroe they kill me is kosher my good man. Sure they have been rewritten, but the baisic priciples are the same. All religions manipulate their followers to suite their needs, I.E. muslims blowing themselves up, Christians in Waco even though the U.S. Gov was to blame for the end result of that. The thing about it is I like my muslims shot full of holes, that scope helps accomplishes that task.

  • @MrPissonyourgrave Hell yes. Not just America, all Western people will eliminate the evil allah worshipers. you will die, you are weak and stupid people. Aryan men and women are the best warriors the world has ever seen.

  • @MrAppleseed88 1 62GR Projectile at a time. Theyre like cockroaches........

  • @MultiSr16 and yes ther are more trijicon type with electronics but thes trijicon have no electronics .

  • @MultiSr16 electronics m8 and yes i FAIL when I speak to a stupid like you. XD

  • You shoot like a girl, put that chicken wing away

  • @TheMasterwinnie I laughed so hard when I read that! But the truth be known if he is on my team and can make the kill shots he can put both elbows up for all I care. Hell he can even flap them and fly, aerial support is always nice. : ) Shalom! ZombieTacticalStore(dot)com

  • Wow, okay off of that mobile stuff. It's apparent you people have no clue about what you're talking about when you say biblical quotes on things made to kill people. The Bible has many references to War, it also states that as long as there is sin in this world there will be war. If you actually heard the people who are talking about taking these "quotes" off you would realize their ignorance of a topic they know nothing about. But I mean if you want to have feelings for the enemy feel free.

  • what does he mean by "blanked out"?

  • is that a gold rolex?

  • commando, bitches.

  • Dear Trijicon, you make great products but you have a horrible company philosophy. I file that scripture shit off of all my Triji sights

  • In israel they use this reflex sight for the tavor. i havent seen one mars sight

  • have you tryed to fit it on a shotgun?

  • isnt it a bit hypocritical to have bible scriptures on a gun used to kill people?

  • how much is this?

  • Your videos are very good. I love the reviews and id like to see more. If you know how to convert a direct gas impingment to piston id like a video on that. Im going to convert my AR but im not exactly sure how to do it.

  • You probably get this a lot but, Where can I get one? I live in Canada so if it's only in the US That's cool. I'm also only 18 so If you need to be 21 my uncles who live there can still get it for me.

  • How's the eye relief on this? How comfortable were you running far forward on the receiver compared to the EOTech's?

  • exelent choice!

  • Dude The problem with ur vids is Ur not SHOWING THE red dot...

  • why is it not painted on the side you look into?

  • was that a jam at 0:34?! failure to feed or eject but still wth!

  • i just bought the reflex sight II. I was in a bright area and i have no wash out over pavement, in the sky, in the grass. Its nice and bright without overpowering and the triangle is pinpoint. However ihave some lamps in my apartment and its washes out and i can't see at all. yellow lighting and white walls and in dark indoor close quarter its pretty useless. Harder to aquire where fractions of a sec count. I have mix feelings on it.

  • thats cool how trijicon puts bible verses on their optics

  • Where did you buy it? I suppose you re an american by accent, so is it possible to get one out of USA, since I know Mepro 21 is forbidden to export outside USA.

  • how does this sight stack against the eotech for cqc engagements under 50yards?

  • @fanofCOH The Reflex and EOTech should be on par under 50 yds. One advantage would be the smaller size of the Reflex so less distraction, but that;s debatable. The tritium sight verses battery operated is also a plus for the Reflex... in my opinion : )

    EOTech is still an excellent choice. Thanks~

  • @sootch00 i think im still partial to eotech, but this sight smaller footprint seems more appealing. plus, the lack of batteries is a plus. however, the lense on the eotech seems much larger and so you have a bit more relief when acquiring your target. so idk, im really split here, thanks for your take tho.

    -Blake

  • @fanofCOH eotech 557 has drop compensation. The triangle is thick so 12.5moa is a blob for a red dot but the fact that it has a sharp corner makes its competable with the 1moa dot of the eotech. I think this is better than the eo tech. and if you really want to have a larger view they makea 1x42mm optic but you forfiet the triangle.

  • @sootch00 Hey sootch, love your vids. I am curious if you have had any washout issues with the reticle on this sight. I was pretty dead set on getting the 42mm version but when I tested it at a local gun store I noticed that the dot would wash out if you were standing in a darker area while aiming at a lighter area.

    For example i was pointing the sight outside against the wall from inside the shop where it was darker and lost the reticle. I am wondering if the larger reticles are not as bad.

  • OOOOOooooOOOOOooh!... and, whats the arabic-song's title? seriously :) tnks

  • killing things sux, i dislike almost everything about this vid. id rather spend money on happyness.

  • @shaterproofblosm I saw no killing, where was killing in this video? And how do you survive life? If you eat meat, someone had to kill the animal it came from. Even if you are vegan, alot of plants have given their lives for your sustanence. Go troll elsewhere please.

  • @MThrow Trolling and expressing your opinions are two diferent things. you dont have to eat meet to servive, infact cirtain blood types dont benifit from eating meet at all. im pritty convinced that mass killing cows in a "fast and easy" (or any) way and harvesting plants for there consumables that most of them grow back and indeed need creatures to eat there fruits, vegitables, and what ever els to spread there seeds and continue the cycle, the plants that die are used for there wood, sap, etc.

  • @shaterproofblosm The main point of my response was that there is NO killing in this video, which was the basis of your "opinion". Belive it or not, there are a HUGE amount of sportsmen that engage targets their entire lives and NEVER even come close to "killing" anything. If you had commented that his rifle, sight, or gear sucked then your "opinion" would have some basis of belivability. But it had nothing to do with any of that hence the trolling refferrence.

  • @MThrow my opinion being a basis of your "belivability" is none of my concern. i am aware of that, you can not say that guns arnt made for killing or "protecting" you self by harming or Killing somthing. this video (IN MY OPINION) supports death wich (IN MY OPINION) is shit, thats my point.

  • @shaterproofblosm You are more than entitled to your opinion, and I support your right to state your opinion. That's the first amendment to the constitution. But you need to also be aware that you wouldn't HAVE the right to state your opinion if people hand'nt fought, killed, and died for that ability. That's where the second amendment comes into play, in which the poster of this video is exercising HIS rights. Yes, death sucks, yes killing sucks. But sometimes it's a necessary evil.

  • @shaterproofblosm killing is never going to end its what us humans do. killing can be for good and for evil. i love guns and always will love them. hey at least death is by a very fast swift bullet and not by someone stabbing u with a sword. how can u say death is shit. u want everything to live forever until there is no more room on earth??? come on man its the circle of life...watch the lion king

  • now i got a question for ya man if you got the time. i have been thinking about spending the money on a high quality reflex. now a triji is really appealing to me since i always hear bad stories about how eotechs and aimpoints somtimes just shutting off from battery usage from being left on and how sometimes people forget to turn them on. i hear some nay say about the triji however how it can be bloomy or in dark areas your flashlight can make your reticle invisible is this an issue?

  • Have you heard anything good about the RX09 model?

  • lol, whats with the chicken wing?!?! ahhhh..lol, reguardless.....AWSOME VID!! 5*

  • did they payed you to post good things about trijicon stuff cuz i went to site and theyr stuff is F***ING EXPENSIVE. i did some research and found other sights and scopes cheaper then thoose and made with the same materials(same characteristics). sorry my english. although nice video!

  • @bazengao Hey Bro, No, they don't pay me. I bought my Trijicon scopes because they are the best. Yes, they are expensive... very expensive, but worth the money. There are other options that are less expensive and are good choices but don't buy super cheap. You'll be glad you spent the extra for quality. Thanks and Good luck~

  • could it be more reflective and less combat suitable? almost 6 minutes of review and not a single peek through the sight itself - which might be good for Trijicon sales, as when it comes to field of view, brightness of lens, and durability of sot over time - this is the worse reflex (reddot) sight of them all. Try the Israeli MEPOR21 (meprolight) - also no batteries, works day and night, lens twice as big, dot twice as bright.. never breaks down.

  • @yonataneshel ty dude.

  • @bazengao

    You are a dump ass.Nobody's getting pay for a review of the good product itself and if you're happy with 1989 Honda then don't fucking dream about 2010 Mercedes.

  • Comment removed

  • @kendyluu shut up, i didn't asked you anything and i certainly didnt asked something to be insulted!... get a life and while your at it grab a brain... ignorant "dump ass" -.- its dumb with a B btw...

  • @bazengao just hated someone said a stupid thing about something they can't afford.Then keep fucking yourself and buy the cheap optics for your guns.He..he.The quality is different,good luck.

  • @kendyluu can you stop being retarded for 5min?? theres no need to be rude is it...

  • @bazengao

    are you serious???? trijicon is one of the best optics makers on the planet earth. you want the best that you can trust your life with in a real combat situation. it is not unreasonable or out of the ordinary to spend over 1000 bucks on a military grade weapon scope. just my 2 cents :)

  • What is the different between reflex I and II?

  • Very nice review! Great job all around, although I could have lived without the Jesus stuff thrown in. But hey, that's your belief system (and that of Trijicon's owner as well) and you're more than welcome to have it. It's a free country =)

  • Comment removed

  • best music ever? oO

  • Not as precise as an aimpoint or eotech , and costs about the same.

  • Maybe next time you can bring the sight up to the camera so the audience can get an idea of what the actual sight looks like in "daylight" conditions. Nice review though. Thanks.

  • one question were do u get all this stuff from

  • @sillypotato9067 Years of shooting and collecting, good friends that loan their gear for my reviews....

  • oh cool i just got a bow back in like 06 and my uncles got me started with hunting and guns but my dad said we should get bows cuz my brother was born on opening day for hunting keep the vids comin

  • I am an agnostic and I personaly own two of these sights with the bible verse on them that were made back in 1997. Long before 9/11 and Trijicon's military contracts. What im trying to say is that this story has been blown way out of context.

  • I've also own my ACOG since 1998 and hadn't thought of it that way. Thank you for that insightful comment.

  • so do you believe in norse gods allah? idk cuz you didnt really make any sense in that sentence

  • blah blah blah blah. is just a code. and the sight manufacturer has the right to do what ever he pleases. anyways jesus crist never promoted violence. he promoted peace.

  • JESUS CODE!

    Ah, looks like I'm not the only one who saw the NightLine piece on these guys.

    See? These people view Jesus as some Rambo looking guy w a Right Wing view. Not the one described in the good book per se.

    I have no problem with that, I guess. If someone puts Torah Code or Quran Code on it, bet there'll be some problems though.

  • This makes my gun a Jesus Gun!!! Hell YES!

  • so if i bought one of these and put it on my AR, could i put a magnifying scope behind or in front of it. and still work well?

  • Comment removed

  • @laurencegill

    you are right:) i also think its a bullet

  • hey sootch awsome vid, this will be the sight i am going to put on my ddm4 keep up the good work. I think you give great advice on products and life.

  • I love how they incorporate the scripture on the unit itself. What a way to witness!

  • Not a problem with just you but when reviewing optics it is always beneficial to devote some time to actually filming the view through it!

  • @WootCanada makes you wanna scream when they don't doesn't it?

  • Sweet

  • The accuracy just depends on your zero-in job imho. The better you zero it in the more accurate. I have a Viridian green laser and it took me some time to zero it in to my best ability, but now I can practically put 5-6 9mm's within a quarter size hole at 49 feet.

  • Would this work on a shotgun? I have a 870 with a mesa tactical six shot side saddle with the picatinny top rail. I have been looking for either rail mounted flip up hard sights or a reflex sight such as this one. Any advice would be highly appreciated. Thanks.

  • I think the reflex would work well with the 870~ These sights are super tough and it would make it super quick. Thanks~

  • how much do these go for?

  • sootch -

    Another high quality review. Thanks!

  • Hey scotch as you can tell im addicted to your reviews haha, im in the market for a red dot for my ruger sr556 and noticed this sight in my gun shop and it def is a well made sight and seems really nice. How do you think it stacks up against the aimpoint compm3 or eotech 553 for comparison?

  • They are all comparable quality and any one would be an excellent choice. My personal philosophy is what can go wrong, will go wrong. No battery, less chance of failure. That's just my thought.

    Thanks Bro~ .

  • I have a SR556 too and an in the market for optics. I am not too sure of a triangle reticle.

    Thanks for the video.

  • If you base whether or not you're going to purchase a phenomenal product based on whether or not they choose to put a reference to a bible verse on their product you need to recheck your priorities. Trijicon is, bar none, the finest maker of combat optics of their kind, and you're freaking because they put a letter and 2 numbers on it t hat happen to relate to a Bible verse? Get over yourself.

  • When I bought the sight I had no idea the verse was on it. Tirjicon makes top of the line optics and they are not cheap. I don't care what they put on them is they are poor quality. You need to recheck your priorities and find meaning in life other than yourself.

  • It's a Bushmaster XM-15 223 carbine. Thanks~

  • Now that I got that out of my system, THAT IS SO COOL! I totally didn't know about the verses, sootch00 I have a Trijicon RMR and after seeing this had to check it out. Sure enough on the side 2PE 1:19 (2 Peter 1:19). I think their bible references all relate to light which makes sense since all their products provide a lighted aiming point.

  • The bible verse is a joke right? If its true...then Trijicon is off my list.

  • That's your choice. I'm buying more Trijicon products because No.1,  they're the best but even more so, because of the Verses.

  • Absolutely correct, it's my choice and I'll stay away from any company that use bible verse to sale its products...it is disturbing to see that this sort of thing is happening (especially on product of war). Thou shall not kill doesn't mean jack when people's emotion are toyed with.

  • If its a good product i whould buy it even if it was a Sura on it.

  • Good for you, for supporting a (product of war) company religious views. No wonder the rest of the world compare the US to Iran.

  • Yeah Sure, Iran is just like the U.S Well, except for the Religious freedom, freedom from stoning, freedom from being hanged for being gay, (you know Iran doesnt have gay people, they've all been strung up) Oh yeah there is the freedom in the U.S to disagree with your Government without fear of ending up in prison or being shot. Sure Iran is just like the U.S. Would it make you feel better if Trijicon put a quote from Shakespeare on their products maybe "Thou gleeking swag-bellied knave!"

  • I disagree with you; Freedom for being gay you say? I guess you havent seen Christian camps that try to convert gays; I guess you never heard of the beating death (and shooting) of gay women/men by anti-gay Christian groups. Christian groups pushing their beliefs into public schools and Governmentsif they get their waysIm sure itll be more like Iran. Thank goodness our government was founded by seculars.

    FYI: Shakespeare has nothing to do with religionso, yes.

  • I will leave you with this : In his first general order to his own troops, General Washington said he called on: Every officer and man...to live, and act, as becomes a Christian Soldier defending the dearest rights and liberties of his country.

  • That has nothing to do with the foundation of this country. It's only a general order.

  • I could care less if it's a verse from the church of the flying spaghetti monster. I'm trading a p250 for one of these suckers.

  • How does the reticle transition and appear in poor lighting? im thinking about one of these for a new rifle build, but want to make sure it does well in all odd lighting situations.

  • It has an Amber glow in low light or no light enviroments. During daylight they're black crosshairs. Excellent sight.

  • Black cross hairs??? can u post pics i thought the reticle was just a dot or triangle. im highly interested in this for one of my ar's, thanks

  • Oooops! I was thinking of the ACOG! The Reflex is a triangle... In bright sunlight a polarizer is helpful but I can pick up the sight easily most of the time. Sorry about the mix-up.

  • Great Video man! I have a Reflex II RX09 model with the option to add mini Cyalume glow sticks. I have it mounted on top of my SLR-107F "AK103" Check it out in action in some of my videos. It is worth every penny. I highly recommend it.

  • Nice but to damn expensive

  • Grab a gun hallelujah amen.
