The article from The Armory Life, authored by Andy Grossman, reviews the Meprolight M22, an innovative red dot sight that operates without batteries. The Meprolight M22 is unique because it uses fiber optic and tritium for illumination, making it a reliable option under various light conditions, unlike traditional battery-dependent optics. The review highlights its construction, featuring a compact design, weather resistance, and a quick detach (QD) mounting system suitable for rifles like the Springfield Armory SAINT Victor AR. The sight offers two reticle options—a bullseye or a triangle—but lacks the convenience of adjustable brightness, relying instead on ambient light. The article concludes by recommending the M22 as a versatile optic for truck guns or home defense, emphasizing its practicality for situations where battery life might be compromised. With a retail price of $449.99, the M22 is positioned as a competitive choice within the current market of similar optical products.
