The M03 is def on my radar when they come to Canada. The R3Max is my favourite , I like the clean dot , side mount battery and thin bezel. The 1st Gen bubble buttons do fail. Sig replaced my original scope with the new flat button version. I have 3 R3Max’s for my P320 Max’s and run the R1Pro as well on my IDPA rig.The SRO has a great dot too but I find the controls too stiff . It’s not really duty scope so the controls could be lighter. It’s on my Shadow . The 507 Comp is a good deal and I haven’t had any issues with any of my HS models . But I don’t like the reticles. They should just issue a 6 MOA only. I find HS multi reticles starburst a bit for me. I put it on my back up Shadow. I have few RMR ready pistols looking for a dot including a Rival so I’m looking forward to testing out an M03 ! Great review Thanks !

So basically when I go from 10 to 9 with the mo3 it's like going from 10 to 7 on an SRO. When I'm shooting an SRO I pretty much always use that 8 and 9 brightness setting so I'm really having trouble with my mo3 finding the right setting on a mildly sunny day.
