      Steiner is better. The window is larger. P2 has a tiny window and massive housing.

    I own 2 Aimpoint ACRO P-2's and 1 C-2... I have them mounted on a G47, a Berretta A300 Ultima Patrol (12guage) and the C-2 is on a CMMG Banshee (45 ACP). I have several thousand rounds on each of them with no issues. Rock solid optics!

    I’ve had the acro p-2 on my Glock 17 gen5 mos for since may of 2023 I’ve put around 10k rounds with it and have had zero issues been my daily carry mainly open as I live on a farm and I am in all kinds of weather and have taken several classes and have had zero restrictions on it and have beat it to death dot is still clean and crisp and has held zero the whole time and when I first got it as my first dot on a handgun I noticed how easy it was to find and to shoot and it’s my one pick for handgun optic and same goes for the Glock 17 gen 5 mos ive never shot a handgun better then that one and that’s why I pick it for my daily

    Haven’t had any reliability issue with both of my Acros, but I did have the “oil” issue for both of them. I believe it’s a lube they use. I sent in one for cleaning and it took 6 weeks to get back to me. Didn’t bother with the second one. I have since switched to the RMR HD and have been very happy with it.

    Just looks like a sporting set-up with a brick on the pistol. For EDC carry, one must look at a small red dot like the RMR, etc, and suppressor sights.

    have an early 2023 p2 and it does have a spec of epoxy dust or something in the lens, but it doesn’t matter when shooting so i never bothered with it. this same acro’s locking bar sheared off straight through the middle of the clamp at around 2500 rounds. have another fde p2 from late 2023 and it hasn’t had a single issue or “blem” in the glass.

    Have you seen the B&T Acro cut? It uses stock height sights and shaves some off the bottom of the Acro. It’s only available on a Non-MOS slide.

    I have the Steiner MPS and it’s good, I like it better than the ACRO. It’s best if the slide is cut for the acro mount. Solid and sits perfect on my custom 17, easy to acquire sight.

    My P2 dot died. The linkage that controlled the vertical adjustment of the dot no longer would work. Aimpoint gave me a new optic but disappointed to say the least.

    EPS is the current king, best glass and it's pretty tough (maybe not quite as bomb proof as the acro for your duty use case). And at $200+ less than the acro

      I was thinking about grabbing one for a cheap 9mm AR I threw together out of spare parts I had laying around, to get into PCC competitions. I know the seals tend to fail on them the first time they’re dropped, but I am interested in something enclosed since it’ll be mounted offset and fairly close to the ejection port on a dirty blowback rifle.

    The p2, trijicon and the new EOTech red dot, are ALL not worth the money. They all fail. Especially the SRO and P2.
