I have a basic AR-15 with a Trijicon Tri-Power (red chevron) co-witnessed to backup Iron Sights (stock on front, flip up on rear).
I have progressive lenses on my glasses... meaning I have the top for distance viewing, the middle for 5-10 ft, and the bottom for reading. Makes getting the sight picture just right very hard.
So I have been mulling over getting a magnifier for distance use, that flips out of the way for non-distance use. I know nothing about magnifiers other than I was at a gunsmith and he had a brand name unit new in the box, discounted, but the field of view was tiny. I don’t think I want tiny, but again, know nothing about what is pro/con in magnifiers.
Figured this is the place to ask. Thanks in advance.
