Enclosed emitters are gaining a lot of momentum and popularity nowadays, and Steiner has just dropped an updated version of theirs: the MPS 2.0 micro pistol sight. With newly enhanced features like larger buttons, better battery life, and the same price-point as before (no price increase for even better quality), this is something that has caught our attention.

Steiner MPS 2.0 Micro Pistol Sight

The newly updated Steiner MPS 2.0 micro pistol sight has an MSRP of $631.99, which could be a touch expensive for some people, but quality comes at a price. I’d categorize this as a “buy once, cry once” scenario. Many of the attributes for the new MPS 2.0 will be both likable and familiar. You are utilizing an ACRO footprint, sport a 3.3 MOA dot size, deploy a standard CR2032 battery, and have a tremendous operating range: from -40°F to 140°F.
