Let me know how that illumination is. I have been looking at 1-4x with illumination and want to know if it can be daylight visible to take the place of a red dot.


I have the leupold mark AR mod 1 with the illuminated Firedot reticle. It's 1.5-4x but I don't see much difference in picking up targets vs a true 1x. The dot in the middle of the reticle is adjustable and easily seen during daylight. For the price it's a great variable mag optic.

I have a 1.5-4x as well and I don't have any trouble picking up targets at 1.5x either.

I got a optisan which is a cheaper one (like primary arms) but it's held up to a good but of abuse and works pretty good. It has an illuminated reticle but it's pretty shitty as it "fogs" the glass when turned up. I never plan on using it illuminated so it's a non issue for me.
