Will try again with fresh batteries and report back..
That's the down side of these replicas. They're useless in sunlight. The reticle gets washed right out. They're fine on overcast days or if you're in the woods in the shade, but in bright sunlight, as useless as tits on a nun unfortunately. Aside from that, these are excellent sights.
