I have cracked the lens on a brand new $309 red dot before. Luckily the vendor gave me a new replacement under warranty. I really like the idea of the shield for protection. I think swampfox is doing big things right now at a very good price point...

Just ordered mine, thanks man! Although the battery life isn't as high as the other optic I was waiting for to go on sale, almost 100 bucks cheaper made it easily worth it.

I LOVE my SwampFox! Ive got the smaller one that fits the SMS. I carry out every day and I trust it implicitly. Such a solid dot.

I put a Liberty on my gen4 19 mos and have been extremely happy. Easy to carry and has performed really well. I carry it with an olight mini 2 in an eclipse holster.

Took the plunge, ordered a liberty red dot and shield. Thank you 704. Just have to find a burnt bronze slide 👍🏻

I love my RMR but, I hate taking it off once a year to change the battery 👍 Love the battery access door!

Thank you for the review. I love straight to the point videos with lots of great info.

Thank you again I am seriously considering this model for my first edc red dot on my sig p320c

Do yourself a favor and get a Holosun optic if you wanna go budget. This optic has a ridiculously LOW battery life and the Holosun only costs about $50 more and lasts up to 50,000 hours!

In what conditions will it last 50,000 hours? What setting do they use to achieve those numbers? Most companies don’t advertise “real world” numbers. They do what they can to squeeze out as much battery life as possible and then throw huge numbers up when realistically, the battery life can’t even live up to those numbers. Just change the battery out annually and go on about your day.

@@elxdrummer09 You could certainly change the battery every year, or you could buy an optic that would allow you to go 3 years without worry. It has a solar panel that powers the dot in the sunlight (even if you have NO battery installed) and the 50,000 hour battery life is if you are using setting 6, which is plenty bright for most conditions. My point is that if you are spending what the Swampfox costs, you may as well get a better optic with more options and a FAR better battery life for $25 more (give or take). Aimpoint makes a red dot that will easily last 4 years without a battery change, so the technology has been around for many years. If it was $100 less, I may give it a look, but the competition has it easily beat.

@@elxdrummer09 It's been on the market since 2018, so there are many people that can verify how long they last, including myself. I bought my first 507C when they claimed the battery life was 100,000 hours, but they changed battery types with the newer version so they now claim 50,000. I haven't changed my battery since it was purchased in late 2018, and it's mounted on my carry gun that's carried every single day. So is that "real world" enough for you? I'm not trying to argue, just stating facts. If you like the Swampfox than do you... 👍

Great info, thanks. I have 3 Holosun dots but Swampfox has a fantastic law enforcement discount so I was going to grab the Liberty. If I missed it I apologize but you have a plate (adaptor) on the slide. It's an RMR footprint so can't you just mount the optic on the slide without the plate? I was looking to put it on a PSA Dagger slide. The "shake awake" feature is really helpful. Thanks, nice looking Glock you have there sir.

Couple of things. 1) NEVER leave your weapon in the car overnight. Too easy for a smash-and-grab. 2) 4,000 is no longer a long life span when it comes to battery life. Especially now that we have Optics going for 50,000 hours. 3) If you're going to trust your life to this gun, just bite the proverbial bullet and buy an RMR. Additionally, for around $250-300, you can purchase a holosun (see Sage Dynamics videos for proven durability). That would be the only other acceptable solution for a duty dot that takes an RMR footprint.

Rich Remeika go with the Holosun 507C X2 for mid size carry guns or the 507K X2 for micro carry guns like the p365xl or Springfield hellcat. It’s not really even a question. The Holosun is several times more durable. The holosun has a side load battery and a solar panel (507C X2) which you can set to run off of battery and solar so when it gets enough light it will switch itself to solar and when the panel can’t get enough light it switches to battery. The holosun also has 3 reticle options and the others only have 1 single dot for a reticle. The holosun also has a button lock feature so you can set your brightness and lock it so if the buttons get hit during edc, it won’t change brightness.Once you mount it you never have to take it off. The other options you will have to remove from your slide every time you need to change battery. Go to Sage Dynamics and watch his torture test on the holosun and then watch the test of the others. Again, it’s not even a close comparison.

I have one of these, and on mine the dot disappears on etc bottom ~2mm of the window when you tilt up and down. I'm assuming it's because of the battery compartment cover. Did you notice this with yours?

I just wanna know what the color of the Frame and slide

Friend, which one is better? Justice or Sentinel?

I wanna see you do the water bottle test on it

Looks like a nice optic at a fair price.

I just bought the swampfox justice for my glock 34 gen 5, did you use one of the plates that comes with the gun to install the red dot or did you bought a different one? Thanks for your time.

How is the red dot perform on the bright sunlight?

Can you test a simmons predator/varmint 1-6x/24mm? Believe they stopped making them a little while ago. Not sure if you will be able to get one, but was curious about your thoughts.

How many brightness levels does the Swampfox Justice have?

So is it comparable to a holosun 407c?

Do you know if this sight would mount on the outer impact mra plate?? It’s not listed as compatible on their website. Thx

Who did you get the slide milled with ?

As long as they work you’ll be fine. If you need olight customer service… we’ll, that’s the money you didn’t spend that made it feel like a bargain at the time. Their thermal switches are unreliable. Don’t bet your life on an olight.

Don't buy into the hype. If a deal seems too good to be true, chances are that it is.

I have various light systems , olights are just fine lighting systems ...

I can agree to not leaving your gun in your car for sure. I’m with you all day on that. However I think these optic companies are way overpriced! I’ve been into firearms for about 3 years now and it seems that the accessories cost more than the gun itself! $300 for a magnifier, $2000 for a scope? GIMMIE a break! If I can find a quality part at a good price that offers the same if not better service then I’ll buy it. These top brands need to start taking notice instead of loosing out on potential customers.
