I have a Reflex I on an M4 Flat-top.

The dot is hard to pick up in the daylight with the Reflex. However, you can simply adjust the polarizing filter to remedy this problem. Ideally, you should be able to adjust the filter until no light penetrates it and still be able to use the sight, for it was intended to be used with both eyes open. It's a bit difficult to get the hang of this method for a while, but it becomes easier with a little practice. From what I understand, it is recommended to go ahead and turn the polarizing filter all the way down and practice from there.

Just remember, these aren't pin-point tack-driving sights... They were designed with combat situations in mind.
