I have a few fastfires a d like them. I ha e a few RMRs and it's a mixed bag - the triangle tritium reticles are very dim.

I really like the shield RMS, they are always on and easily cowitness standard sights, and battery life has been good for me.

I am staying away from Trijicon products, sometimes they stand behind their products, sometimes not. Gamble if you like.

I got the Burris and a dot. I don’t know yet if I will keep one or both of them. I’m still kind of new to the whole revolver hunting avenue in general and at the majority of the locations that I intend to be I’m quite proficient with simple open sights.

I have the Leupold 2X on my Redhawk and find it works real well. I have tried putting my Aimpoint on it, but I like the Leupold better. It is brighter in low light and I prefer the center of the cross hair over the larger 2moa dot.

At this point I suspect most optics on handguns are red dots.  some examples are:




https://www.swfa.com/sig-sauer-1x20-romeo5-tread-red-dot-sight.html?___SID=U  Sig Romeo 5 should come with both the high and low mount the high mount for an AR15 the low mount would work fine for picatinny rail on other firearms at $139.95 what's not to like.

Still like my Burris Fastfire but for me the Leica is a cut above.

Scrummy
Was sure I had a point when I started this post...

This thread is almost 3 years old and being the original post was for a hunting revolver for out to 125 yards, I see no place for a red dot vs a scope with cross hairs and possibly an illuminated small dot in the center.
