Where did you get it from? I ask because its listed at $249 on the Lucid website.

Amazon. The seller is WebyShops. They still have them. And I wouldn't put too much stock in the "only three left!" bit - they only had three left before they sent me one. Just keep in mind that the 3x magnifier does NOT screw into the sight - only the 2x.

Another thing I love about this sight - with my old red dot (the one I picked up at Cabela's when I first got the rifle), I had to use a coin or screwdriver to dial it in - on this one, you just twist the knobs. Much better.

Just found this site - http://www.shop.mtnwesttradingpost.c...categoryId=195 ...HD7 + 2x magnifier for $229 :)

The owner/founder of Lucid posted it here - http://www.calguns.net/calgunforum/s...d.php?t=286211 - as "LUCIDHD7".

You suck! :p

I'm trying to decide on whether or not to get the 2x magnifier in this bundle, or just get the site for $199 and waiting until their variable 2x-5x magnifier is available - http://www.mylucidgear.com/magnifiers.php .

And check this out - http://www.calguns.net/calgunforum/s...d.php?t=379989 . That guy had the site + 2x magnifier bundle for $199 up until the 24th :facepalm:

Now that I have a little time to hang out, what would you guys recommend for a home defense weapon that the Mrs. would feel comfortable using as well?

Shit, for that price, I'd jump on it. The screw in capability is really convenient.

One thing for mounting the 3x, I'll have to move the sight really far forward for the flip to side mount for the magnifier to fit - actually far enough forward that it'll be over the delta ring a bit. It's possible that a cantilevered mount (like this one http://www.amazon.com/ProMag-PM004A-.../dp/B003BAHT28) would be a better choice here. I should get both the 3x and the mount delivered tomorrow, so I'll follow up with thoughts on it then. I may end up getting a scope rail extension.

The learning curve here is a bit pricy, but damn it's fun.

Has she ever shot anything?

Nope. And I haven't since I was a kid.

You might want to start with a revolver. Not as intimidating as a semi-auto for a novice, easy to care for, you can instantly determine if it's loaded or not. You could get a mid-sized .357 and run .38 rounds through it. The kick from the .38 rounds won't be bad for her.

Okay, I ordered the site for $199. I emailed the owner/founder of Lucid (Jason) with questions about the variable magnifier and he answered within an hour, which is cool:

Seems like a common problem - http://sigarms556.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=4016

Finally got around to taking a pic of my baby....

Nice. :thumb:

What kind of sling is that? I want to get something similar.
