SIG msr and Juliet magnifier?

[sigstroker]

Does anyone have that SIG msr red dot and Juliet magnifier? It's so cheap, like $280 at PSA for the combo.

Thought about getting it just for the Juliet. I currently have a romeo5 and would sell the msr

Hey Rich, I have a Juliet Magnifier if you want to try it with your Romeo5. I'll shoot you a text.

Why not just post your opinion of it?

Because I have not used the magnifier. I bought it on a whim and have not even mounted it yet because I ended up replacing the MSR before my next range trip.

I have since seen a review that points out a bad aspect of it. The Juliet optic itself hangs forward of the mount. You want it to hang towards the back from the mount so that you have rail space for a BUIS. The optical part would then sit over the BUIS when it's folded.

Have a Romeo and Juliet 4 on my AR and love them. It does sit forward more than I would prefer, since I do have BUIS. But honestly, The slight decrease in field of view has not made a huge difference. As a photographer, I’m picky about glass and the Juliet is certainly clean and crisp
