Is it possible to disable/remove the red/green dot and vertical reticule?

Anything can be done if you're persistent and know how to completely disassemble the assembly to do so. I hope you're skilled with optics and electronics. Besides that, there's no "easy" way to do it.

EDIT: Actually, there IS an easy way to disable the red/green dot: Remove the battery. :P

Phalanix or one of the other photographers had a snapshot of a the person who Souljah lent that particular gun to and the "gold" peices really stood out in an overcast lighting situation.

Hi guys,

SpecterDR 1-4x will be released very soon.

As what I've been told it'll be told in 2-3 weeks, as most of you guys also has been told and heard.

I actually managed to get myself ONE of these sights and it's on it's way to me right now(!!!).

When I receive it I will post a review and pictures of it.

Keep an eye open here next week or so!

[zombi mode] PRIIIIIIIIICE.... [/zombi mode]

Now, seriously, if the regular elcan already costs 149$, how much will this 1-4X model be?

Thanks :)

It'll be somewhere around 150-190 dollars. Thier pre-order price is 180 I think.

Time to save (again)

Hi guys...

I've some bad news... Waridiot who was suppose to send me the 1-4x SpecterDR has sent me a 4x only sight...

The hole conversation we had on e-mail was specifically about the new version that had 1x and 4x zoom and not 4x and of course they sent me the wrong damn part...

I cannot understand how this is possible but it is. Funny thing is that I never during the hole conversation said Yes to the 4x Specter, never. Just questions regarding it and they replied "we got one in stock and it costs this".

Sorry guys for this it was never my attention to start a lie, only to get myself a cool sight and you some pictures until the final release will be available.

No problem jimmy, just give them hell and get your money back ;)

jimmysjogren April 23rd, 2010 05:51

Problem is that I need an optic with 4x for greenside and an upcoming game so I can't really send it back.

Actually it looks a lot better than the G&P (and the rest of the ACOG for that matter) when it comes to optic and size of the optic so if I had to choose between the ACOG and this Specter I'd pick the Specter.

Skorpion April 23rd, 2010 06:03

Well, Glad at least you are happy with the purchase :) but I will keep waiting for the 1-4x and see how good/bad it is :) or simply get this for short and long shooting. A bit big, but cool nonetheless :)

jimmysjogren April 23rd, 2010 06:07

Saw that the other day. Almost look like the Nightforce sight.

Too bad me and my team do SEAL impression, otherwise that'd be a choice of course.
