The new Sig Sauer Romeo 2 mini red dot sight, announced almost two years ago, is soon to be delivered to the public.

The sight, in the opinion of the manufacturer, is designed to work in the most demanding conditions. The durability of the design is to be ensured by the housing made of 7075 aluminum and the modular, detachable cover made of steel. The sight itself is an open type, but by means of the mentioned cover it can be additionally protected against damage and dirt.

The red dot sight is available with the following aiming point sizes - 3MoA, 6MoA, 10 MoA and the Circle Dot Dual target ring. All points have a 15-step brightness adjustment (including 3 NV modes). The source of the targeting points is a highly efficient LED emitter. The point is projected onto an aspherical lens covered with multiple coatings, ensuring a clear image without distortions and high light emission.

The Romeo 2 model, unlike the Romeo 1, is powered by a CR2032 battery, which is installed on a tray that slides out to the side, which means there is no need to remove the optics when replacing the power source.

This method is slowly becoming a standard, although it is not present in the most popular, so far, mini red dot sight on the US market, i.e. the Trijicon RMR. The battery provides 25,000 hours of use with the medium dot brightness setting. From the multitude of technologies that the red dot sight uses, it is worth mentioning the MOTAC - i.e. the system of switching the optics on when it is moved and turning it off when there is no movement, and the MAGNETAC that turns the sight on and off when putting the weapon into a dedicated holster.

The sights are compatible with pistols with mounts for the PRO or R2 type plates. The price of a new sight ranges between $ 909.99 - $ 779.99.
