What red dot are you using?

[Adolf]

I'm using a Trijicon RX 1x42, from my AK on my M-10/.45! I would like to buy the Trijicon RX 1x24 for the weapon, but it is hard to justify when I don't use the open bolt semi that often.

I have a Holosun 503C on my mac and love it. Has the 2moa dot and a 65moa circle.....cause lets be honest, I'm not looking to be dead nuts with my mac

I also like that it has auto wake and auto shutoff....AND has a solor panel on top. I treat it like iron sights. No fiddling around, just take the gun out and shoot then put the gun back in the safe.

Also, LaRue makes the best mounts, if the factory Aimpoint mount won't work for you. But they don't have the best price on Aimpoints. Typically Aim Surplus does, if you know the discount code.

Holy crap. Someone actually put a sight on a can...

I'm using a cheap Tasco (aka Trashco) red dot site. It's held zero for about 8 years. I can see the dot in the full sunshine and I don't lose sight of it when firing full auto. It's precise enough to hit a 4" target from about 25-40 yards away.

You can see it in use here:

That's one way to ensure that any POI due to the suppressor is accounted for. That said, I wonder what happens when the suppressor-to-rail-to-sight interface conducts the heat into the sight mechanical apparatus, chemical adherents, and electronics.

Yeah. 9s don't get quite as hot as 556, but jeez I've had to wait a long while to take a 556 off the rifle....Could melt a lot of plastic parts and electronics.

Folks spend thousands on a transferable... and then cheap out on optics. LOL!

Aimpoint micro.

I only paid $750 for mine in 1989. I'm not putting a freakin aimpoint or eotech that costs more than the damm gun on it. I got a $40 chinese BSA that's going on the new upper when it arrives.

I've got a TRS-25 on my recently acquired Mk1 Max-11, the co-witness seems spot on, and a Site-Mark on the dedicated .22 upper. I've been running a Docter on my slow-fire upper.

The Docter has been around the longest, and It's been mounted for at least 50K rounds fired on various rifles, pistols and sub-guns ranging from .458 WM to .22's and rates of fire from single shot to 2600RPM, and it hasn't missed a beat yet.
