I don't own a Trijicon, but I have tried out several friends AR's with them.. Nyterunner is on the money about the dot (triangle) being hard to pick-up during the day.. It also makes a big difference on what the background is.. I found that I could easily lose the dot on light, bright colored backgrounds... From what I understand Trijicon does make filters to help out their sites during daytime use... Although I am not too sure if these filters are for the Reflex or just the ACOG models...

I do own an Aimpoint Comp M-XD and ML-XD. Both have performed great for me... If you do get a Comp M/ML, make sure that it is of the newer XD type. From what I've been told by people who have both (and from what the company says) the XD models have a much longer battery life, and can be brighter...
