If you do a review on function My suggestion on testing the optic dot with an auto adj. Back into a dark corner where the firearm is in the dark but you can see out into a well lit room. Does it still have a good visible dot? I have the sentinel and have found a lot of conditions where the forearm is in a dark area but there is plenty of light out front to identify a target and there is no dot. Never see reviewers test this on these auto on dots. To me is unacceptable for a CCW. I also find my sentinel lens scratched just like a plastic one. Have carried it on a sig P-365XL for several months.

250 rounds thru my romeo zero and ejecting brass ruined the lense within 20 shots. Also, carefully using alcohol and a qtip as the owners manual instructed completely ruined the emitter and lense. Shooting with a slightly wet gun and using clp, some clp blasted up onto the lense, and the coating came off. I've had the romeo zero for 2 months. Before I even shot, opening the blister pack, a couple of plastic shards fell onto the lense, using my breath I blew it off, and it scratched the lense. I wouldn't even pay 50 bucks for the sig romeo zero. Also, no cover on the bottom allowed a bit of CLP in during cleaning, I learned the electronics are coated in epoxy for "waterproofing" which not only leaked out and into my chamber when it melted under heat within the first 50 rounds, the clp degraded it and now the electronics shake freely and rattle inside the housing. In short, just simply using the romeo will ruin it. They require you to torque the unit down to 9 inch pounds, which isnt enough to keep the screws tight without lock tite, which they do not include. To turn the emitter on you need to fashion yourself a tool, I use my smart pen on my phone which is a Samsung galaxy note 8. But if I use anything else I risk destroying the lense. And if you push too hard on the button it falls into the unit and gets stuck. So adjusting brightness is a serious challenge. Just some info I thought I'd share about sigs romeo zero. Also the tape they give you to keep the battery in is the shape of the unit, you will not be able to get a replacement for it when it stops sticking. So you'll be forced to use normal tape, which wont keep it moisture proof. I live in wi, I dont even wanna carry this in the cold. Just a range toy you'll ruin after a few other range toys get ruined while ur figuring out what optic to carry. It will NOT last you a lifetime or even close.

Yea, that adjustment button is stupid. My RomeoZero has been fine but I had a friend that had a bad one right off the bat, and it came in his P365xl. Sig was fantastic on the customer service in getting a new one out to him though.

got my Romeo zero today for my canik and only one of the screws that came with the sight fit into my slide for some reason, it seems like my slide wasnt threaded properly on the right side hole and I have my sight on now but only with 1 screw holding it on so I cant shoot it until I find me a new screw that will work or I might have to get ahold of sig or century arms and tell them my situation and see what my options are (before anyone asks my canik screws didnt work either for some reason im super confused by it but like i said it has to be the threading not going up high enough because those screws only are long enough to go about an 16th of an inch into the slide)

If you had the correct height front sight AND sighted it all in by drifting the optic so that you were zeroed on the notch, then yes they would work...until you took the optic off to change the battery and then you'd need to do it all over again. Far more labor and ammo intensive than re-zeroing your red dot when you change the battery. Get suppressor height sights and co-witness, the notch is a gimmick.

I just put the sms2 on my canik and decided to check the auto brightness outside at 1 am and it's useless. It's almost not on at all and hard to line back up fast,and the front scratched very easy,there was a little bit of the usual stuff on the inside after 100 rds and pretty much nothing except a little bit of smug around the edge on the outside and I was worried about scratching the inside even after cleaning it very easy with lense cloth and using a qtip to lightly get anything out and the side that didn't have any gunk from firing ended up with several small scratches. I'm severely disappointed that it's so fragile for the price.

I simply used an ignition file (very fine toothed) and filed the posts completely down to flush.

You know, rather than repeatedly complaining about the battery falling or of the Romeo Zero, just hold hold the it upside down, place the battery in it and then seat it onto your gun upside down, flip it over and insert screws... It's not rocket science. 🙂 I think, something to consider for future reviews of these sights, I'd really be interested in the comparisons of the heighth of the base, to give an idea on how well each allows the co-witnessing of the iron sights.
