TruGlo Tru-Tec Overview
TruGlo Tru-Tec Red Dot is designed with a 2 Minute of Angle (MOA) for quick target acquisition. Its digital push-button controls allow the user to adjust setting quickly and more easily. The TruGlo Tru-Tec Red Dot Sight 20mm 2MOA Reticle operates on a CR2032, which allows the scope to function with extra long battery life. It also comes with a shock resistance to 1000g, water and fog proof optic as well as unlimited eye relief.
Build Quality and Mounting
TruGlo RDS optics is more budget friendly compared to upper echelon RDS like AIMPOINT, EOTECH, and others. Though you cannot expect TruGlo to hold up or be more durable than these optic brands, its overall quality is still good. TruGlo Tru-Tec Red Dot is very lightweight with a compact design that’s neither too small nor too large. It can be used on an AR15 rifle for either recreational indoor or professional outdoor use. The scope also comes with an integrated weaver or Picatinny-style mounting system which eliminates the need of purchasing a mount separately.
Optics
The 20mm TRU-TEC optic comes with a superior 2 MOA reticle dot and flip-up lens caps, which replace the traditional removable ones. The red optics on this scope is great because they allow for point-and-shoot, faster target acquisition, reduced heft concerns and extremely tough lens. And with red optics’ MOA adjustments, the user can enjoy longer shots.
Reticle and Brightness
The TruGlo Tru-Tec Dot’s 20mm objective lens and 2 MOA reticle pattern are features designed to help you enjoy precision aiming and faster target acquisition. The scope’s sight has been set to a minimum parallax of 50 yards. And when focusing on distances that are significantly greater or lesser that the default distance, some parallax will be observed. And in order to reduce the Point Of Impact shift caused by parallax, the user is required to keep the reticle in the middle 2/3 view when aiming.
Elevation and Elevation Adjustment
The TruGlo Tru-Tec Red Dot can allow the user to zero and stay true in 5 to 7 rounds. Elevation and windage adjustments are crisp with this scope with each individual click felt by the user. Ideally, with a single elevation or windage click, the Point of Impact (POI) is moved approximately 1/2 MOA (1/4’’ at a distance of 50 yards). You can basically fire several hundred rounds at 100 yards without necessarily having to make adjustments.
Comparison
Red dot sights are specifically designed for both short and medium range sighting. The TruGlo Tru-Tec Dot simply offers one of the best MOA reticle and crisp point-of-aim for an AR-15 owner. The comparison you’ll make is to the Aimpoint H2 or the Vortex SPARC AR. Those are great comparisons, and the Tru-Tec makes a case with its low price point for your dollars. However, if you’re looking for a scope that can offer you long-range shooting at a cheaper price, the Bushnell AR Optics 4.5-18×40 can be a better choice. Not only does it boast of side parallax adjustment, but it also comes with fully multi-coated optics for increased visibility and improved durability. And if you want a scope that can perform well in 3-gun, tactical or professional hunting situations, then you better try the Nikon P-223 3×32 Matte BDC Carbine Rifle Scope with an off-set RDS like the Burris Fast Fire.
But all the same, the TruGlo Tru-Tec Dot comes with shock resistance of up to 1000g that these other scopes can’t sustain. And with a wider Field of View, programmed sight movement sensor and waterproof and fogproof, it is the best scope under $500 that can guarantee you value for your money.
Conclusion
TruGlo have certainly made significant steps in the design of red dot optics in the past few years. The TruGlo TRU-TEC 20mm and 30mm optics come with pretty impressive features for a recreational hunter and professional shooter. Ideally, the scope is made for shooters looking for an optic that’s small, lightweight and one that maximizes on precision and speed. It’s simply one of the best AR-15 tactical sights you can ever try.
