I Have the Fast Fire II and III. They are both really good. The III model is refined and worth the money.

I have a older Fastfire and this new design is really a great improvement. Being able to remove battery without having to remove sight is a really big plus. I love the brightness adjustment also.

FastFire III has been disappointing. The first problem was on my Mossberg 930 because there is not Speedbead mount.
