Just what i expected - Burris 1X-35mm Matte Red Dot Sights

With the Burris name I expected good quality at a reasonable price. That's what this is. There are better red dots out there I have a couple but this one is just fine for what I purchased it for. Initially I put it on my .22 pistol. It was heavier than some reflex sights but not too heavy. The dot was nice and crisp and it was easy to get zeroed. I had it on the .22 for a few weeks and then I finished the project that I purchased it for, my AR 15 pistol. I put it on the pistol and am quite happy with it there.

Again, this is a good quality red dot but you have to realize the limitations. When compared with an Aimpoint for example one can see that the amount of light transmitted through the tube isn't as good with the Burris. When you look at the battery life, the Burris can't compare with the Aimpoint's 2+ years. Mind you, for less than half the price what can one expect?

This is a good basic red dot.
