Buckmark red dot

I’m looking for suggestions on a middle of the road sight to put on my Buckmark with a suppressor. Lightweight and small footprint would be great

Used RMR is what you seek



Or  a Burris Fastfire

I have a couple vortex venoms that do the job just fine, but if i was to hop in my delorean and do it again i would buy one of the tube style red dots, because you cant keep the rubber cover on the venom when youre in the woods, it will disappear.  Also id look for one with the shake awake thing.

I've had good luck with ADE red dots. I'm running three on my steel target completion pistols, 9mm, 45 ACP and a .22. Good customer service, they even replaced one that was my fault.  :twocents:

I was thinking the tube style would be quite a bit heavier than the reflex style?  I was actually looking at the venom based on reviews

Well like i said, theyre not bad.  Killed 3 bears with a venom on my 444 this year, so they work.  Can bullseye a target at 100 yards off a shooting bench, not bad for a 3moa dot.  I have one sitting in a box, still trying to decide if i should put it on my 22lr pistol or sell it.  Have 2 others, one on the 444 and one on a 556 upper.

The new Burris Fastfire 3 is getting decent reviews.

I also like the Delta Point Pro as well. I have an RMR Type II, the only thing I do not like about it is the battery is on the bottom, so you have to unmount it to change the battery every year or two then re-zero.
Besides that, they are the gold standard of Reflex sights.
