Rifle Scopes Need assistance finding Optics

[Vitorum]

Hey guys what's up? I'm trying to find a few different kinds of optics and would like some assistance in located them if you wouldn't mind. I own a couple or 22lr rifles that I need a decent red dot sight for.mI've been looking at a few on opticsplanet.com that seem ok. I like the Sightmark Ultra Dual Shot QD Reflex Sight.

Also I was wondering if there was a company out there that made a more affordable short range scope just like the Acog brand scopes? I'm not a hardcore shooter so I don't require the best of the best just something I can put on target and shoot with but is made well.

Haven't used the Sightron, but I love my Burris Fastfire II on my Buckmark. For a budget sight, it is very good.

What's your budget and what specific features do you require for both of the optics you are in search of (red dot and ACOG-esque scopes)?

I have the primary arms mini reflex micro green dot. I like it, but wish it had an intensity setting so i can turn it off or down. no problem seeing it in broad daylight either.

I was looking at the sightmark dual reflex too... hopefully someone else chimes in as i was thinking of getting it as kinda a backup sight for my AR15.

I've had good luck with the Vortex Strike Fire red dot.

If you are looking for a sight that looks like that I agree with Quickdraw40. The Burris Fastfire is not the best sight on the market like but it is a good one. I have been running one an AR for about 2 years now with no issue. If you what a really good one I would say the Leupold Delta Point.

Here is a link to the Burris Fastfire.

If you're looking at the Sightmark, I'd wait and get the Fastfire II. I use one on and AR15, a 10/22 All-Weather, and a Ruger Charger. I liked the brightness on the Leupold Deltapoint, but I couldn't justify the extra money when the Fastfire II works so well.

I'm suspicious of optics that add features like lasers - I want my purchase price going to the lenses and coatings.

There are 14 firearm-specific mounts for the Fastfire II in addition to the weaver/picatinny mount.

Burris also makes a riser/protective wing/battery holder/tool kit:

It's pricey at $99, but if you're using an AR, it puts the Fastfire II at the correct height for cowitnessing, and has a compartment for carrying a spare battery, and holds an open end wrench and Torx wrench. Inspector Gadget would love it!
