Great price on the Leupold DeltaPoint Pro. Shipped quickly

I bought this for my Sig P320 M17, just the government spec'd. Good choice! It fits the cutout perfectly; the dot is crisp, it holds zero and offers fast target acquisition. No complaints, but the lens does get dirty after 30-40 rounds. That's not Leupold's fault, just a design oversight on the location of the slide cutout.

I put the Leopold DeltaPoint Pro on a Gen 4 MOS Glock 35 about four months ago. The DeltaPoint fit on the Glock precisely as advertised; it was easily-mounted, it is a perfect fit, and it has remained a rock-solid sighting system. I first sighted the DeltaPoint in using 165-grain hand-loads, and an hour later using 185-grain gold dot hollow points. It sighted in quickly and has maintained its zero after well over 2,000 rounds. The battery is easy to install without removing the sight, and the DeltaPoint goes to sleep as advertised, waking up in an instant and ready to use. One reason I got it was because of the adjustable brightness control, and it does work well; however if I have the DeltaPoint set for the night, I have to remember to make the delta brighter before I step out into the daylight or else the 7.5 MOA red delta is almost impossible to see. I now leave it set on my "daytime" setting. If I have to use it in a dark house, the DeltaPoint is very bright but usable. It is no problem in the dark if you have it set to "daytime" bright but uses it with a bright flashlight mounted on the bottom of your pistol. Leaving the DeltaPoint set to be bright ensures that I don't find myself in bright daylight, unable to see the too-dim delta because I forget to reset it. I do find that the lens gets very dusty after a few day's carry, so I clean it off using a burst from an air duster that I have for my computer's keyboard. If I don't clean it off every few days, the delta starts to get blurry in the lint. I still like the Trijicon RMR Reflex Dual-Illuminated Red Dot Sight, it was a very close second choice, but I was worried about the dot's washout if I needed to aim out of a dark room into a lighted area. (A friend of mine has the RMR mounted on an FN .45 and loves it.) I installed the Leupold DeltaPoint Pro Rear Iron Sight in combination with Ameriglo's Tall Suppressor 0.407 inch front sight. The BUIS shoots low but is usable in an emergency, and the tall front sight easily slides in and out of my Bladetech holster.

I've been running a Leupold DeltaPoint Pro for the last year, and when it started to have issues, I sent it in for repair. I waited patiently for the last few weeks for it to arrive in time to shoot the opening evening of SCAPSA this week. I opened the box and was utterly torn. Why do you ask? They upgraded me to the DeltaPoint Pro..Part of me was like, Right On! Woo Hoo!! Unfortunately, it ended quickly because there is NO mount available for my S&W Performance Center. So I'm out until I spend another $500 on a different red dot sight or maybe a new gun. I wish they would have at least told me they were going to do what they did so I could have made other arrangements. I mean, someone took the time to email me and tell me they received it. Why couldn't anyone have said," Hey dude, we discontinued the Delta Point, so were going to send some new magic." ((sigh))

I have had the Leupold DeltaPoint Pro on a Glack 19 mos for about three weeks now and have about 700 rounds using this combo, and so far, I love it. It does take a little getting used to if you have not shot with an optic mounted pistol before, but if you have used a red dot on a rifle, you will feel at home. I like the fact that you concentrate on the target and let the dot superimpose itself on the target. This makes for faster shooting and better target/threat awareness since you are not going from target to front sight and back again. I love the field of view of the DeltaPoint over the competition; it is night and day better. The other advantage is the battery is located on the top, so the optic does not have to be removed to change, though this will only have to be done maybe twice a century. I will be adding the Leupold back up sight that mounts to this optic and a taller front sight to have a backup co-witness set up. The only negative I would have to say is the price, and that is for all these little red dots. Hopefully, as this becomes more of a regular thing, the price will come down a little. But even with that said, I would not buy one of the cheaper ones since they will probably not last on a pistol. Thank you, Leupold, for making another great optic.

I had the opportunity to use this sight at a new handgun class. I was amazed at how quickly I could put the sight on target and even more so on how fast I could get the second shot on target. Very easy to use and very accurate. I used it on a Glock 19 (relatively short sight radius), and this red dot (7.5 MOA Delta) "stretched" that out a lot, making it easy to stay on target. I liked it so much; i purchased the same sight for my home defense gun.

It was difficult for me to get used to both eyes open when shooting with a sight. After a bit of practice, the steel plates on the dueling tree began to fly. After many years of Glock usage, to include qualifying twice a year and field use, my shooting accuracy has leaped forward with this Leupold DeltaPoint Pro Red Dot sight system!

The Delta Point has never lost zero after two years and 57k rounds of significant power in USPSA competition. No adjustment screws to strip out. No plastic to crack, click adjustments, better warranty, and a better company than the competition makes it.

I purchased this deltapoint pro reflex sight on the recommendation from a friend. I have this sight mounted on a CZ P09 that I use to shoot carry optics division in USPSA. I have about 4,000 rounds through the pistol since I had the sight mounted, and it has not changed POI. I like the broad view, and the chevron (7.5 MOA) is bright and easy to pick up even in full bright sunlight. Battery life is good; I change the battery about every two months. I shoot a match every weekend and practice 2-3 times a week, so the battery gets used a lot. Very happy with this sight.

I mounted this Leupold deltapoint pro on an S&W M&P9L CORE. I bought this weapon & sight to be used primarily as a home defense weapon. Pros: I love the auto-off/on feature - I can leave it lying on my bed stand and not have to worry about the battery running down yet instantly have the sight ready when I need it. I also like the fact that you can increase or decrease the brightness of the delta. So far has maintained zero (only about 100 rds at this point). I can feel the clicks for the elevation/windage adjustments. The battery can be accessed via the top of the sight, so the sight doesn't need to be removed to charge the battery. Cons: The main body of the sight is THICK. The S&W CORE comes with extra high sights for use with optics or suppressors, but the DeltaPoint completely obscures even those sights. Co-witness of sights is not possible (there is a rear sight you can mount to the DeltaPoint, but I don't know if that would make co-witnessing possible). NOTE: The S&W CORE is designed to have optics mounted to it. However, the dimensions of the original DeltaPoint and the DeltaPoint Pro are not the same, and as is, the DeltaPoint Pro cannot be mounted to the CORE. I was able to modify the original DeltaPoint mounting plate (basically removed a bit of the spacer), had to file a little bit off the front of the DeltaPoint Pro, and order 3/4" screws in order to make it work.

The Leupold Deltapoint pro appears to be a great sight, but since Leupold put the battery on top, the unit is a little longer. So.. the base plate doesn't work, at least on my S&W M&P 9mm Performance CORE. Someone needs to build an adapter plate that fits. The one that came with my pistol was made for the original Delta Point. Not the Pro. When will it be available?? I hate to pay for another adapter, but that's how it looks. Thanks.

I purchased this reflex sight on the advice from a friend and it was shiped fast. I have this sight mounted on a CZ P09 that I use to shoot carry optics division in USPSA. I have shot about 4,000 rounds, and I had the sight mounted, and it has not changed POI. I love the large picture view, and the chevron (7.5 MOA) is clear and Bright to pick up even in full bright sunlight. Battery life is excellent; I change the battery about every two months. I shoot a match every weekend and practice 2-3 times a week, so the battery gets used a lot. Very pleased with this sight.
