Rimfire Pistol Optic

[toddnjoyce]

Looking for suggestions for an mini reflex sight for my M&P22. I’ll most likely drop a Romeo Zero on it since that’s what’s on one of my alternate carry guns.

I’ll be using it to shoot Steel Challenge with and would prefer a 6moa green dot. My only two criteria are that 1) I’m not paying more than $250 for the site and adapter plate (egw makes one for $49): and 2) I’d rather buy once than try a bunch of knockoffs.

What suggestions do y’all have?

I have a Vortex Venom on my Victory.

ETA: Nevermind, doesn't meet the criteria.

It’s a good optic, I’m just a cheap bastard sometimes.

If you wanna buy once ... go with the Viper.

Following. Thinking about putting an optic on my MkIV.

Did some research on this last night and I think this is where I'm leaning currently:

AR 15 Front Sights For Sale | Primary Arms

Shop AR 15 Front Sights for your rifle. These Iron sights come in fixed and flip up variants from popular brands like Troy Industries, Daniel Defense, and Magpul.

www.primaryarms.com

If you can find the FF4, it has 4 different dot options:

FastFire™ 4 | Burris Optics

You will need to get a mount too.

One thing I realized is that I should probably narrow the options to those that fit the mount I’ll most likely use. Below are the choices compatible with the mount that works for my pistol.

Docter
ADE RD3-001, ADE RD3-002, ADE RD3-009

Hmm. Found a factory refurb Vortex Venom (3moa) for $140. Might just have made the decision.

Stay away from the ADE... got 1 last year for a Ruger MKIII ... that sight sux ass for the $$. It would never hold zero & where the off button is located, it is very easy to turn it on when putting the cover on

I've got one on a Ruger 57 and another on a 22/45. No complaints. $149 is smokin'. New models probably out. Seriously giving a thought to grabbing a couple more. I wouldn't call them heavy duty optics that I'd bet my life on but they are great for the range/hunting.

 

[lightflyer1]

I put one on a KelTec PMR-30. Excellent for that.

I've had several different red dots on my Browning Buck Mark Target, but I chose to stay with the Burris Fastfire 3. It has been great for over a year.

 

[BuzzinSATX]

I’ve had best results in economic red dots with Swamp Fox. And they have a heck of a military discount.
