RED DOT SIGHT MELTDOWN!!!!

[neokshooter]

I want to purchase a red dot sight for a PSA Dagger pistol slide. The slide is an RMR cut. What I want is an 8 MOA with a red reticle that does not cost an arm and a leg. In other words I can't afford a Trijicon. I'd like to keep it under 300 bucks if at all possible. I have searched the internet until I'm blue in the face. Does anyone have a suggestion for a decent optic at a reasonable price?

Go to the link in this thread. Find the footprint you want, then go through the list of RDS with that footprint. You might find something.

If you are stuck on 8 moa with RMR direct mount it's going to be difficult if not impossible to find.

You may have to may have to use an adaptor plate with maybe a Burris Fast Fire III. ???

Good luck.

Yeah I thought about that and that would be okay with me. I don't know much about adaptor plates or how to know if one is available to convert the red dot to the mounting platform you have. There probably is one. I really like that Burris Fastfire 3 and it's in the right price range for me. Gonna' have to look into that.

I added a link to a universal mount I found. It's not the ultimate set up and there are some tricks to using a mounting plate without problems but it might just work for you.

Here's the kicker...If you had the Dagger slide with the less popular Docter cut the 8moa Burris would be a direct mount.

You know the more I think about what you are suggesting is probably the way to go. I just found the adaptor plate online for 50 bucks. I'm looking at picking up a Burris Fastfire 3 for just under 200 bucks. Worst case I'll pay a little over 200 bucks plus the adaptor. Either way I'll have the Fastfire 3, which I like, for under 300.

If you decide to look at the Holosun 407 Cx2 or the K, let me know. Either would run under $200 as well.

Swampfox Sentinel. 3 moa but crisp, clear and affordable.

I was having trouble seeing the 3.25 MOA RMR at night with the flashlight on. Moved up to the 6.5 MOA RMRcc and am happy. Works well now.
