This review of the Feyachi RS30 red dot and M37 magnifier combo on a KelTec CMR30 highlights both positive and negative aspects. While the red dot offers a large objective lens and useful features like auto-off, the magnifier exhibits significant ghosting and streaking, particularly at its highest and lowest magnification settings. The reviewer notes that the mounting system may contribute to the issue by partially obstructing the magnifier's objective lens. Despite the CMR30's accuracy potential, the optic combo's performance limitations prevent a full recommendation at its current price point.

Quick Summary

The Feyachi RS30 red dot sight features a 40mm objective lens and an auto-off function, while the M37 magnifier offers adjustable 1.5x-5x magnification. However, when combined, the M37 magnifier exhibits significant ghosting and streaking of the red dot, especially at extreme magnification settings, hindering usability.
