Precision-Engineered For Performance

The SIG Sauer ROMEO3MAX PRO is housed in a low-profile, aircraft-grade CNC aluminum body, offering durability while maintaining a lightweight design. The ROMEO3MAX PRO sight’s construction allows for co-witnessing with suppressor-height backup iron sights, providing shooters with versatility in multiple situations. It also features a DeltaPoint Pro mounting footprint, making it compatible with all SIG Sauer P320 pistols, ensuring seamless integration into your existing setup.

Clarity and Versatility

One of the standout features of the ROMEO3MAX PRO optic is its 31 mm aspheric glass lens, which is distortion-free and coated with a red notch reflector. This lens design ensures a clear and bright sight picture, making target acquisition fast and reliable. The optic offers two red-dot reticle options: a three-MOA dot for precision shooting or an eight-MOA dot for faster target acquisition. With 15 brightness settings, shooters can easily adjust the reticle visibility to match different lighting conditions.

User-Friendly Features

SIG Sauer has equipped the ROMEO3MAX PRO with several convenient features to enhance the user experience. The side-mounted battery tray allows for quick and easy battery changes without removing the optic from the firearm, preserving your zero. The sight is powered by a CR1632 battery, delivering up to 20,000 hours of runtime at a medium brightness setting, ensuring that the optic is ready whenever you are.

The ROMEO3MAX PRO is also built to withstand harsh conditions, with an IPX-7 waterproof rating that ensures fog-proof performance. Additionally, the optic features motion-activated illumination, which automatically turns on the reticle when the sight senses movement, along with a magnetic activation system for added ease of use.

With a total elevation and windage travel of 100 MOA, the ROMEO3MAX PRO provides ample adjustment for a wide range of shooting scenarios. Whether you're adjusting for distance or compensating for wind, this optic offers the precision needed for accurate shooting.

Compact and Lightweight

Weighing in at just 1½ ounces (including the battery), the ROMEO3MAX PRO is a lightweight addition to your pistol setup. The compact dimensions—1.83 inches in length, 1.41 inches in height and 1.3 inches in width—ensure that it won’t add unnecessary bulk, allowing for quick and nimble handling.

The ROMEO3MAX PRO is a thoughtfully designed reflex sight that balances durability, clarity and ease of use. With its compact size, long battery life and user-friendly features, it’s a solid choice for both competitive shooters and enthusiasts looking to upgrade their optics. With an MSRP of $699.99, it also offers solid value for those serious about improving their performance on the range.
