From the brand
Product Description
Waterproof Construction and Nitrogen-Purged Fog-Proofing
Featuring nitrogen-purged fog-proofing, this red dot sight will not fog up due to humidity or rapid temperature changes, so you can always clearly see the red dot and your target. The optics are O-ring sealed and will stay dry even when fully immersed in water.
Adjustable Brightness for Better Target Acquisition
The TRS-25 has adjustable brightness settings from 1 to 11, illuminating the 3 MOA dot reticle inside to better help you with target acquisition. And by choosing lower brightness settings, you can prolong the red dot’s battery life.
Shockproof Construction for Maximum Durability
Built to withstand bumps, bangs, and drops, the TRS-25 comes in strong, precision-engineered housing and is perfectly suited for the rough-and-tumble environment of the field. You'll never have to worry about damaging this red dot sight.
About Red Dot Lens Positioning
All red dot sights have an objective lens at the front of the unit that is spherical in shape. However, unlike a conventional riflescope with all lenses mounted perpendicular (at a 90 degree angle) to the axis of the tube, the objective lens in a red dot sight is positioned off axis and appears to be tilted when looking at the sight (see below). This angle of the front lens allows the light generated by the battery powered LED light source inside the unit to be reflected back into the sight. The reflected light becomes the “dot” or aiming reference that the shooter sees when a red dot sight is switched on. This engineered “bending” of light is what makes today’s red-dot sights so popular and easy to use.

I always put off buying a TRS-25. I figured it's a pricier "cheap" red dot. I always opted for the red dots in the $25-50 price range (Field Sport, Feyachi, Midten), figuring they're just range red dots. I've owned half a dozen of these red dots in that price range, and even the ones that are "TRS-25 Clones". I always assumed the ones that look just like the TRS-25 are pretty much the exact same thing with different markings on them. 6 years after buying my first cheap red dot for range time, I've finally bought the TRS-25 that I saw then. I just always figured it wasn't worth double or triple the cost of those.
Upon closer inspection, they're actually a fair bit different, in small ways. I'm surprised in a good way, and the quality of the TRS-25 is a bit nicer. The dot is actually clear, but it appears like a little star burst in the exact same pattern as all my other red dots. It's a very minor astigmatism I have, and it's not an issue. I noticed the same pattern on Aimpoint PROs, etc.
It comes with the expected items in a nice cardboard box. Little wrench, a bikini cover, and a battery that is not dead inside the unit with a plastic liner keeping it from making contact.
The emitter inside the rear seems a little more thoughtfully constructed and built in. Glass has a very light blue tint to it, which I've seen on some.
The battery dial is easy enough to turn, but not loose. Again, having owned several of the cheaper red dots, some of them are looser, and some are so tight you can hardly turn the thing. This is a happy medium.
I was curious about the adjustment turrets, so I included some pics of that stuff, too. I never really see those without the caps on in reviews, so I added mine. The caps for the turrets do not have any notch or points machined into them to use them to adjust the actual turrets when they're off, but a shell case rim did just fine. They have a concave notch machined into them, so something like that shell case rim or a dime would work perfectly.
My TRS-25 has laser etched dial dot and Bushnell markings, referring to an older review that showed the real vs not real model. Mine seems consistent with a real one, except the laser etchings. Just about everyone is going to laser etchings as they're just cheaper to do.
Everything about it feels like it's better finished and machined, and over all a bit nicer than my previous models. I didn't think the difference would be noticeable at all, much less as much as it is. Even the mounting screw and plate catch are better machined, and this mounting plate catch is spring loaded. Most are not.
I'm running it on top of a spare UTG 0.83" riser I already had, the medium model. It allows for the lower 1/3 ish co-witness with standard height AR rifle sights. The UTG riser is not included.
I'm planning on purchasing another one for another rifle running a cheaper older model. The older model is nice, but costs about 2/3 of this price. It just started flickering on and off after a year. I had to open it up and tighten stuff up and hopefully it'll continue working.
I will actually update and follow up with this review, once I can get out and run the red dot, IF anything goes wrong. If two years from now this review is still posted with no UPDATE: section, then it has been running just fine. This is an initial impressions review, and so far, it's quite a bit nicer than I thought. Worth the extra money? As of right now, yes, and I'd never have agreed to that in the past.
Thanks for reading.

Thanks for reading.
Yes but how does it hold up to recoil you say? It holds up fantastically! The I have it attached to a nice Seekins Precision 0.83mm riser, which is the exact height you want for this red dot if you plan on doing a co-witness set up with the MODBUS Magpul Poly front and rear pop up sights, and it has grabbed on and not let go of the riser. The lenses have stayed put inside the body of the red dot sight, and it just does a very good job.
I really like this red dot. For one, I bought this because it is Bushnell. They have a longstanding reputation of quality. Two, the price is unbeatable. Three, any review I read about this particular red dot sight has recommended it. I have given it four stars because the brighter you adjust your red dot the more it starts looking like a spider. I sighted it in on level eight I believe. The highest setting is eleven. Eight was bright enough to see it on any target except red maybe. Nine will probably be acceptable too.
I do also want to mention that what is pictured is not what you get unless you are lucky. What you get is the Gen 2 Bushnell TGS-25. You can tell by the different colored lettering on the Gen 2. The original red dot in the Amazon picture the Bushnell letters are yellow. the Gen 2 Bushnell letters are white. Plus the Gen 2 front lens is canted. This is actually a bonus. The Gen 1 red dot had an issue with glaring on the front lens and made it difficult from time to time to fully see the red dot. The Gen 2 canted lens makes the glaring go away. BONUS!
I totally recommend this red dot. I will more than likely purchase it again for future builds.
