Has anyone had any experience with the TRUGLO  2x42  red dot sight? Do they hold up  ok on a .44 magnum?  Thanks

I have 2 of them. 1 on my sons 870 Remington and 1 on my 11-87. Both have held up to 3" Turkey loads

I had one one my 44 mag Handi and it held up just fine it just wasn't enough magnification for my old eyes.

I am not sure how long a truglow will hold up, but I saw a lady elk thru one on my 308 handi.  The scope is still working as designed and I have a lot of elk breakfast sausage.  Guess I got my money's worth.
