A number of years back SIG Sauer Electro-Optics, the Oregon-based optics division of SIG Sauer, released the very affordable, compact ROMEOZero pistol red dot. Today, they’re excited to announce the new ROMEO-RS. RS, standing for “Reinforced Steel,” is another pistol-mounted red dot made from an internal steel chassis or frame and other metal components for a more robust and slightly larger version of the ROMEOZero. The new red dot not only features a new body design and two variants to choose from, but several other creature comforts that might make it an attractive option for your own micro-compact 9mm pistols.

Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger - The New SIG ROMEO-RS

Introducing the ROMEO-RS™ (Reinforced Steel) pistol-mounted red dot. Inspired by the design of modern striker-fired pistols that employ high-strength polymer and metal, the ROMEO-RS housing forms around a rugged steel chassis and metal components to provide critical strength and consistency through every round.

Specifically engineered to provide the accuracy and convenience of a pistol-mounted red dot at a cost that competes with high-end iron sights, the ROMEO-RS is available in both PRO and COMPACT industry-standard footprints with 3MOA, 6MOA, or CIRCLE/DOT reticle configurations available.

Designed, developed, tested, and assembled in Tualatin, Oregon, the ROMEO-RS is fully backed by SIG SAUER’s Infinite Guarantee™ and available now.

Pricing for each of the new dots starts at $149.90 for the ROMEO-RS Compact version. The compact version and “PRO” versions of the dot are virtually identical in terms of features, but the compact is slightly narrower and shorter at 1.10 inches tall and with a 24mm aperture. Meanwhile, the larger PRO variant will be sold for $169.99 and is 1.21” in height and features a larger 31mm objective lens. The compact variant will use the popular RMSc mounting footprint, while the larger PRO variant will use the DeltaPoint Pro footprint. Both optics are available now from the SIG Sauer website, with free shipping currently available on both of the new red dots.

    I've carried and shot a R0 for multiple years now without a problem Don't even have the metal shroud they sell....always thought it was fine as long as you treated it like the carry optic it was instead of a combat optic that it wasn't.
