Just had to ship one of my Romeo 5s back to Brownells.
The dot failed to adjust to any elevation & deviation corrections.

As for warranty, well that's why I buy from Brownells.
Zero question return policy.

Brownells is sold out of Romeo 5s but I found another place on Amazon that had one listed for the same price I'll be refunded.

Really like these sights. Bang for the buck is high & the videos of their durability is more than any abuse I'll ever give it.

Mounted the other & it zeroed in perfectly.
I ordered the replacement yesterday, of course today I see Primary Arms introduced their latest 2moa T-1 wannabe RDS for $150.

If I'd had waited I would have ordered one of those & given them a try & a comparison.

And honestly how many rounds did it see in that time? Any? 50rds benched at the range?

Zero rounds!
That was new out of the box.
Never mounted, manufacturing / QC mistake that made it out the door.

I decided to pickup one of Primary Arms new MD-RB-AD sights as well.
So I'll be able compare the two side by side.
