Hello everybody,
I am looking for a red dot for my newly aquired Henry model X 45-70.
I am leaning heavily towards Holosun, but have come accross something interesting in a private sale.
It is an Iweapons red dot, 2x42mm sight - sight level 7, but I can't find much info about them. It is Israely made, I think for the IDF. There is a website for iweapons.com, it looks interesting, but I can't find any reviews about this optic.
Does anybody know anything about it or about iweapons.
Thanks muchly!

I’ve never even heard of IWeapons. If it were me, I’d stick with the Holosun. Known quantity.

I believe you are referencing IWI Israeli Weapons Industries.

Yeah maybe. Their web sight is Iweapons.com. That may be what they go by in the civilian market.

That was a clear message David. Holosun is your choice.
God save the Empire!

I'm so glad Koshkin is still here.
Life's concerns should be about the 120lb pack your trying to get to the top of the mountain, and not the rock in your boot.

Holosun is good.

I've also had good luck with Leica and Burris Fastfire III
Was sure I had a point when I started this post...
