I have both for the money can't beat them.Looking at that fast fire deal for 140, vortex SPARC II for 199, or the sig Romeo deal in the primary arms email. Any thoughts? First red dot, going on a M&p sport 2
Thanks!
This is an awesome deal!Burris FF3 great deal posted here on another thread. Killer deal comes with $79 AR mount.

It's all personal preference. I got my Sig Romeo5 from PSA and it works great on my pistol build. Good luck with the purchase and enjoy.Thanks for the info! Between you guys and the digging around on line, it looks like I can't lose, and ended up going with the Sig romeo5. Can't wait for it to arrive.
I have an astigmatism and some sights "bloom" for me and some don't. Aimpoint, EoTech and Burris have always worked well. I was very pleased to see the Romeo perform well too. Most of the cheap ones with the battery holder in the intensity knob bloom a lot for me. And my ACOG is insanely sharp and clear but that one has really good etching.Oh also if you've never looked through one you should try before you buy one. It's pretty common for people to have a slight astigmatism and it causes the dot to not be a crisp little dot but more of kind of a star burst. Like the little dot has points coming off it. It's not a big deal but that's how it looks for me. I read if you get a red dot with the circle dot reticle it helps and it did for me.
Thanks Ron! That is a fantastic deal. Going to try one on a handgun.Burris Fastfire I am sold on for a handgun. I have been running a FF2 on a 1911 45 auto for over 10 years. Thousands
of rounds riding on top of the 45 auto slide with no issues! I have 4 of them now. I think the Fastfire is a little too small for
a rifle. I have a Vortex Spitfire dot on my AR. Burris FF3 great deal posted here on another thread. Killer deal comes with $79 AR mount.

EoTech is a very good sight. I've owned one for several years now. They are designed to be used with both eyes open. This can be difficult at first. What worked for me was anytime I lost focus, I would shut the non-shooting eye, re-acquire the target with my dominant eye and then open the other eye again. It took a few sessions (stop when you get tired or fed up) but once I got it, it was terrific. Now I can just look at the target and lift the sight up until the dot is on the target. You will be happily surprised at how fast you will get. It's also great for moving from target to target. The key is to be persistent. It may seem like you're getting nowhere for the first few tries.Red dot newbie here, I am also looking at adding one to my new ar. I don't have the best eye sight from looking at computer screens for too long.
Have only tested one red dot a the range and it was just ok. It seemed hard to get an accurate shot.
I haven't tested the EoTech yet, but I feel that is probably what I need for my eyes, based on some online reading.
Can anyone share their experiences EoTech and the like?
Vortex and others make a AR scope that is a red dot also.Red dot newbie here, I am also looking at adding one to my new ar. I don't have the best eye sight from looking at computer screens for too long.
