Burris Fastfire III

mardi 3 mai 2016

I have a Nelson Custom on a Kimber frame. I recently bought the flat top rail so I could mount a red-dot sight.

The red-dot I purchased was an inexpensive, fragile affair that lasted just long enough to teach me a few things. As I bought it mainly as a proof-of-concept item, I do not mourn its passing. Here is what I learned.

1) I do like the micro-compact reflex style on a pistol vs. the tube-type.
2) I don't like having to remove the sight to change the battery.
3) I don't like having to back off locking screws before making adjustments.
4) I don't like having to remember to re-tighten those locking screws before shooting again.
5) I would like a button vs. a switch to power on.
6) I don't like the huge knob on the side of the picatinny mount.

I started looking around. The Leupold is crazy money as are several of the other makers. Has anyone tried the Burris Fastfire III? It seems to be well thought out and of high quality without being outrageously expensive. It's still a fair bit of coin so I'd like to hear from some actual users.
