Good job, good vid, nice pistol! 🙂 I love Sig Optics but the fact that they weren't able or willing to select a unified footprint for their optics right from the start seriously p.... me off! Sig Sauer (Just like H&K and other big fire arms companies) seems to feel the need to keep that certain touch of a...hole-attitude alive. 🤔
All of the reasons you don't like it are all the reasons I got it for my S2C lol Small, compact & built in backup sights (even if they shoot a little low on my carry).
@@stratocasterxyz Appreciate the advise, but I am just going to keep it. I am 70 and it is a just in case and something to hang ear protection and Go Pro or NVs off of.
@@jamesbowman7963 That’s a pretty good analogy. I think a better one is I bought an SUV on Carvana thinking I was going to get a Suburban XL and when it was delivered it was a Honda HR-V. It’s my own fault. I didn’t do my due diligence in research before I bought it, thus, the reason I made the video. Some extra info for those considering it.
My disappointment was total petty B.S. on my part. I changed out the muzzle brake. As for the trigger I have learned to use it. The gun is capable of 1/2 to 3/4 MOA with me behind it and Hornady Factory Ammo. With someone that knows how to shoot and tuned handloads, I am pretty sure it is capable of 1/4 to 1/2 MOA.
I google searched hard head veterans to get a helmet from them . Google brought up tachelmet and I clicked on it without paying attention. Just bought a helmet and made the same mistake.

Is your slide cut for the Leopold Delta Point Pro? If the answer is yes, then the Romeo X Pro will fit your slide. Check your manual it should say what its optics footprint is.
Bought one of these about a year ago. I think they are not even 3a. There is a video on Facebook and a .22 defeated this helmet from tachelmet. Keep your heads down 😮
Velcro for an MVG mount?? That's JUNK man! It costs hundreds of dollars for the multiple parts to mount NVGs. I bought a full face helmet from onlyest for nearly four hundred bucks. Dude if I smack it as hard as I can from both sides or slam it on the ground it will snap apart. It's toy stuff dude. Heavy toy stuff for airsoft.
Dude, you have forgotten more about helmets than I have time left to learn about them. The Velcro isn’t there to mount anything. I put it there to prevent my GoPro mount from rattling in the mount. I am 70. I got the helmet for a “just in case” scenario. At my age and where I live I won’t be buying NVGs anytime soon. I appreciate your comment. All comments help me learn about something I really know nothing about.
Go to the website, look at the about us section, look up the address on Google maps. Their "warehouse" is a mobile home in Alabama. Its a scam dawg. Tachelmet is a scam and so are most of the tactical websites advertised on youtube. Ask me how I know. Onlyest, tactical world store ect is airsoft stuff and it is MEGA chinesium.
If you've been using a Romeo 1 for an extended period of time then how can you be satisfied with a delta point pro?! IMHO the DP Pro is one of the most if not the most overrated red dot on the market. It doesn't stand a chance against the romeo 1. Further more I'm afraid you didn't understand the concept of co-witness. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tpkb0Lyr9RM.html
Why you think I don't understand the concept of Co-witnessing? As for the Delta Point Pro vs Romeo 1. I use(d) (past tense) a Romeo 1 quite a bit more than I use the Delta Point Pro. The Delta Point Pro has a larger window and is more durable that an original Romeo 1. The only reason I have the Delta Point Pro is because it was the only RDS available for my M17. Why do you think that the Delta Point Pro is overrated?
@@armeddiver >> Why you think I don't understand the concept of Co-witnessing? << Just check the link to sage dynamics video I've been posting in the original comment. You might find it benefitial 😉 >> Why do you think that the Delta Point Pro is overrated? << DP Pro's price is far to high for what you get because: - DP Pro can not compete with the Romeo 1 in terms of optical quality and clarity (Quality of Lens, sharpness of the dot, anti-reflective coating) - DP Pro tends to show a distinct halo around the dot In adverse (unfavourable) lighting conditions (espacially with intense backlighting) - DP Pro's operating concept is just annoying IMHO >> The only reason I have the Delta Point Pro is because it was the only RDS available for my M17 << I understand this very well since a friend of mine chose the DP Pro for his Walther PDP V2 since he wasn't able to find the right adapter plate for the Romeo 1 footprint. Meanwhile he modified the DP Pro adapter to fit a Romeo 1 Pro footprint (postition of the screwholesand and threads are identical but one has to get rid of the poles on the plate) Btw talking about the Romeo 1 Pro, if I remember this right it was built by Sig Electro-Optics to fit OR-ready Sig Sauer Pistols right away without any adapters, wasn't it? So it should be compatible with the P320 M17.
@@Borat808 Thank you for the response. I will definitely take a look at the Sage Dynamics video. In honesty I haven’t shot the M17 with the DP Pro enough to be able to speak intelligently about it. However, it does a large window and it is durable. I do sincerely appreciate the comment. I may be 70, but there is always more to learn.
@@armeddiver My pleasure, sir! After all I didn't mean to say that the DP Pro is a bad red dot in general. In my eyes it's just over-prized for it's performance. I am sure Leupold didn't earn their name and reputation for nothing but in this case (red dots) it seems they rely a bit to much on their name.😇 Btw I am in no way affiliated or connected with sage dynamics! IMHO it is one of the best channels you can find when it comes to trust-worthy information about fire arms, shooting technics and fire arm accesories. He is quite famous for his (drop)testing procedures for red dots for handguns. 😉
Watched this whole video to figure out what exactly was disappointing with this guys build. The only thing I can come up with is this guy can’t shoot and he must be disappointed in his ability. He has in the neighborhood of 6-7000 dollars in this setup and expects he can buy tighter groups. Here is the reality my guy, spend time behind the gun and get better. The whole video is him explaining the bits and pieces he put on the build, not what makes this so disappointing. Waste of time, a waste of money, and he is probably already started on his next build because it isn’t about an accurate rifle, it’s about him showing off the ridiculous amount of money he has in these things and still wonder why he can’t get groups under an MOA at 100yards. Keep shooting bud, you may get there eventually if you understand it’s about developing technique instead of trying to buy small groups.
You seem frustrated with what you saw in my video. I am sorry. As for my abilities as a shooter. Let me say this. It is NEVER the tool. It is ALWAYS the user of the tool. For the record, the gun depicted in this video is capable of far greater accuracy than my capability to shoot it. As to my actual ability you have already drawn your opinion. As for my disappointment, I am pretty sure I explained in the video what I was disappointed in.
I have the Romeo X Pro on my P320 XCompact. I love it for my conceal carry pistol. I like that it’s larger than. The Romeo X small size for the 365. I have the Holosun 507Comp on my competition full size P320, it’s way bigger window. I feel like I bought both red dots for their proper uses. Sorry to hear you didn’t like it as much.
are you comparing the Romeo X to the other optics instead of the Romeo X Pro for full size handguns? You never mention it being an X Pro and by its size is looks like the X I run on my P365.
The only difference between the Romeo X Pro and the Compact is, the Pro is 0.21 inches longer than the Compact. They are otherwise identical. They are the same height with the exact same optic window. To answer your question, I am comparing the Romeo X [Pro] to other optics. Other than the length difference I mentioned above, the Pro and Compact are the exact same optic.
@@justinweeks6608 The bump helmets are marketed at $150.00. Mine was "supposed" to be a Level IV Ballistic Helmet, which is why I paid so much. I really made a mistake not doing more research. I [assumed] there were actual standards for helmets and the way they were marketed.
It's always nice to have a third option. Sig sold a lot of their gen 1 optic ready P320s, with this optic cut. You are surely not alone with this issue. Thanks for the update.
Thomk122, you are absolutely correct. Sorry for the confusions. Concerning the magazines. The older magazines with the older base plates will not fit in the AXG or X version grip modules. I had several older magazines and had to buy new base plates (cheaper than buying all new magazines} to fight the new grip modules.
You keep saying grip module. What do you mean? The grip module is the entire lower. The grip panels are the orange panels you installed. Those mags should all work with the AXG module. Are the grips cut in a way that the magazines won't seat properly.
I wish these grip panel companies would show their product on the AXG titanium cerakote lower. I want new grip panels but I can't envision them, I need a picture or I need to see it in person. 😊
Great video Brother! I just got my Obsidian Rugged 3 lug adapter for my Scorpion Eco 3 S1. Going to install it today (thanks to this video). Keep going.
@@Citizen2ACitizenLLC I recommend that you read the comments. There were a couple of recommendations that some others made that were good advice. One of the recommendations was to use Rocksett instead of Locktight. I don’t know how hard you are going to run your gun with a suppressor, but I really think that was a really good recommendation.
Reviewing now. Thanks for the follow up. I plan to run it fairly hard in the beginning just to push it to its limits since this is my first rodeo with the obsidian 9. @@armeddiver
Wait so the baffle upgrade came with the revolution 9? Or you had to do a special order for them? I have the Explorr 300 and I’m waiting on my revolution 9. Bought it April 8th. Hopefully my form 3 approves and ships soon. Because my local gun store lets you shoot your silencer while it’s in jail.
Your Revolution 9 will come with the new baffles. My Revolution 9 was an older version. My Revolution 9 worked fine with the old baffles, but the new baffles are much cleaner and easier to maintain. You won’t have do any type of upgrade.
Looks good on you.. and it would save you in a fall etc... great ear piece holder and camera holder.. good thinking on keeping the attachment tight with velcro.. PERFECT for airsoft! Sending love..
Love your AXG. Very cool color choices. I completely forgot about the Romeo X magnetic on/off. It's actually an interesting feature. The Romeo X is a durable optic that is perfectly sized for concealed carry. I am also a stickler for cowitnessable sights, which this allows. Also, you do not have to remove the sight to change the battery, which I will not accept on an optic anymore. The whole direct mount/footprint thing you are dealing with really stinks. I almost bought the wrong optic when I bought my first P320, as it was the new cut and would not take the Romeo 1. Thankfully, I found out I needed a Romeo 1 Pro before I made the purchase. Unfortunately, you have the opposite problem. There are still Romeo 1s out there, and they are pretty inexpensive now, but who knows how long they will be available. Thanks for the review. Subbed.
No I did not do any real research. I saw a torture test. I really liked the side mounted battery, the positive controls, the “off” feature and the circle ⭕️ dot feature. I am a huge fan of the circle dot reticle. Furthermore it was being praised as the next big thing for Sig Optics. The fact that the Romeo X was originally designed for the P365 should have been a ‘clue,’ but it never dawned on me that it would be so small. Is it an excellent optic? It appears to be, ‘but’ it has its drawbacks, which hopefully I have made people aware of. I haven’t gotten it to the range yet so we will see how it performs after the range. Bottom line … my fault. The information was out there and I should have done a better job of research before I bought it.
I would, but I am not convinced they would actually give me a refund. I am afraid that if I return it I will be out the money and the helmet, so I am going to keep it.
Call your credit card company file dispute. They’ll reach out to the company as their email and phone number don’t work you will win then go by team Wendy’s bump for 310. If you don’t fight the charge, you’re letting them get away to rip off more people and putting peoples life in danger .
Yes you did. if you Google their address, it’s in the middle of nowhere with a trailer. Their phone number doesn’t work and if you try to email them it sent it to a different email which you get no reply a helmet fail a drop test from 40 inches and crack the helmet we have pictures that we posted on social media They have multiple different names the operate under with similar websites, same misspelled words
@@armeddiver first of all, they sell, knock off product from other companies, which are actually actually smaller than the original. Secondly, they sell fake medical equipment that actually fails and has been proven to fail. Ukraine wars perfect example.
@@armeddiver Neither is anything else. There is no such thing as a ballistic helmet. Even in the 2000 range. The reason is you'll die from the concussion if they actually did stop rifle rounds. Its only mean to give you a fighting chance at distance of getting a spare round at distance when the round has reduced velocity and hits at a angle, ask me how I know.
My brother in christ. If you had done 5 minutes of research you could clearly tell that they're shady af. Their address is a trailer in alabama but they have a big picture of a warehouse with "TacHelmet" on the side.
That is the problem. I did "5 minutes of research". I clearly should have done a lot more. Hopefully, others will do a better job than I did. As old as I am I should have known better. I am still shocked that there are not better product controls on helmets, which is a lot of the reason I made the video.
@@daniellindsey6499 Daniel, I am sorry. You got caught pretty much like I did. There doesn’t appear to be anyway to hold helmet makers accountable, when they falsely advertise.
Yep. I bought one of those. Airsoft junk. I shot the hell out of it.... with a .22 pistol. Never even got to 9 ball. Bought a Team Wendy bump and a HHV ballistic after that. Whaddya gonna do? Mistakes get made... often by me.
i would recommend either a team Wendy bump helmet or a opscore bump helmet, you can find them around 300 bucks. it might sound like alot but these helmet will save your noggin if you take a nasty fall. the one you have looks like a opscore knockoff. it might do the job but i would not trust it to stop a 22lr so the extra weight is not worth it since the more weight you have the more risk for a head injury
No helmet is going to stop any rifle round what so ever. IDC if you paid 200 or 1500 dollars for it. I got about 10 friends from Afghanistan will you the same thing that got shrapnel all in their heads and neck from explosives. The reason why, is that if they put ballistic material in a helmet and it did block a 5.56 or a 7.62 directly not at a angle is it will snap your neck or paralysis will occur at the minimum. Your body is the weak part of the equation. You are more likely to live if the round actually penetrates or bounces off at a angle.
some people need to seek ADVICE from someone that actually know about what your trying to get involved in this guy seems to be more enamored by talking about who made the componets of the gun then actually learning what it takes to make it shoot accurately - you can't expect benchers accuracy with factory ammo
Okay, you didn’t care for the optic. Not a big deal. Sell it and buy a different scope. If you like a good 2 stage trigger, you'll never find a single stage trigger that makes you happy. Those groups weren't very good, BUT with your technique and the fact that its factory ammo, that level of accuracy is somewhat expected. Get a rear bag, and a decent front rest. Find someone that can help you adjust the rifle to fit you, and position the scope correctly. Adjust the gun to you, not you to the gun. Thats the whole point of spending money on any kind of adjustable stock. Maintain your cheek weld during the string. Learn about natural point of aim. All of this, when properly applied should have that rifle shooting most factory ammo into sub moa groups. That said, sub moa sucks for that rifle. If you're normally shooting 1" groups with factory ammo, you need to start hand loading so you know when the problem is you, when the problem is the rifle, and ehen the problem is the ammo. If you and the rifle normally shoot 1/2" or better at 100 yds, and you try a new powder or bullet and your groups open up, you'll know its not you or the rifle.
