GunMagWarehouse is one of the best places to find any magazine for any gun you can possibly think of. From standard mags you need dozens of to harder-to-find things you need one, GunMagWarehouse has it.

But it also carries more than magazines. A lot more. Way more than you might expect. While a good PMAG will keep your AR fed, a red dot on top helps a lot if you want to hit anything.

Enter the SIG Sauer Romeo-MSR Gen II. The MSR has been a popular low-cost red dot for a couple of years, but SIG’s Gen II version not only totally redesigns the look of the optic but also adds some much-needed features and boosts its durability.

Available in red or green dot versions and with or without the SIG Juliet magnifier combined with the red dot, the Romeo-MSR Gen II offers 35,000 hours of battery life, 12 illumination settings (10 day time, 2 night vision), IPX7 water resistant, and is only 5.7 ounces.

The window is only 20mm but for a rifle optic that is more than enough for most people.

The price at GunMagWarehouse at the time of writing is just $170.

That 35,000-hour battery life is powered by a single CR2032 inside the rotary dial used to select the brightness level. Because this is a mechanical switch, there is no shake-awake on the Romeo-MSR Gen II.

Zeroing is made easy with the large dials and a provided tool. And the included mount works for any standard 1913 Picatinny railing.

Bottomline, this is a one-stop red dot (or green dot) that does everything you need it to do and does it at a very accessible price point.

Shooting with the Romeo-MSR Gen II is pretty great for such an inexpensive dot. SIG Sauer has always done an outstanding job with the glass clarity on their red dots and optic is no exception. Where other brands often use heavy filters on the optic to improve battery life, SIG can get comparable hours out of nearly pristine glass.

SIG’s optics also feature:

• Multi-coated glass lenses
• Proprietary Spectracoat coating
• Scratch-resistant lens coatings

Basically, this means the lenses are as protected as they can be. Giving your optic layers of protection enhances the usability of the red dot and gives you a lot of bang for your buck since you won’t have to replace scratched-up optics.

Even in very dusty environments, the Romeo-MSR Gen II is impervious to grit.

Mounting the Romeo-MSR Gen II with a SIG Juliet behind it is one of the most simple and effective optic setups you can make. It just works. Short-range, mid-range, even pushing out to 400 yards, on a flat range, or dynamically during a match, it just works.

The Gen II also uses the standard Aimpoint Micro mounting pattern if you want to get fancy and switch out the Romeo-MSR mounts. One great option would be a 45-degree mount combined with an LPVO or MPVO. Because this is a lightweight optic it doesn’t add too much bulk while still giving you a real-sized optic in a 45-mount.

The clear glass, strong brightness and easy-to-zero controls make the Romeo-MSR one of the ideal red dots for newer shooters. It doesn’t set you back much money and it won’t let you down when you need it.

A problem with some dots is that the optic isn’t bright enough to power through the sunlight of the desert in summer, but that isn’t a problem for the Romeo-MSR. This green dot model is eye-searingly bright on level 12 and that is exactly what you need sometimes.

The two-night vision levels work well for NODs, but the smaller window makes passive-aiming a bit harder.

During the day, this is a solid optic that delivers a huge amount of value for the price. This continues the Romeo-MSR legacy but adds new features worth of the second generation.

This is just one of the many red dots you can find at GunMag Warehouse. If you’re looking for a wide selection of great optics, you can pick the right one for you and grab yourself a stack of magazines to go with it.

While the name only tells you about the mags, you can find a whole lot of great range gear, targets, tools, parts, and more on the site.
