Burris 300234 FastFire III Fast Fire 3 with Picattiny Mount 3 MOA Red Dot Sight

I mounted this Burris FastFire III on my shotgun I use for turkey hunting and it has been a game changer. I love it. The dot is crisp and easy to pick up, even in bright daylight, and the automatic brightness adjustment works very well. It holds a zero perfectly, even after hundreds of rounds, and the sight picture stays clean and uncluttered. I really like the top mounted battery. No need to remove the optic and re-zero just to swap batteries. Controls are intuitive, and the build quality feels rugged enough for real use, not just the range. For the price, reliability, and performance, the FastFire III is a fantastic optic that delivers far more than expected.

My only gripe with this sight is how finicky the battery cover is. It was very difficult to screw the cap on without cross threading with the battery in place but once I got it together, the sight worked great and held zero no problem on my CO2 blowback airsoft rifle. The included lens cover is awesome, it just easily snaps on and off and covers both the front and rear with a plastic/glass. I am not sure how it will hold up to impact from a BB but it is a lot better than nothing. The auto brightness setting works great while transitioning from bright to dark areas and vice versa. I have high hopes for this sight on my firearms in the future.

Rettifico recensione iniziale...dopo un paio di sedute e relativa taratura, trovo che la caratteristica tanto declamata che indica la non influenza del parallasse completamente non veritiera,semmai qualcuno leggesse questa recensione mi convinca del contrario spiegandomi cosa eventualmente io possa sbagliare nell'utilizzo.....PS 347 €uro!!!!

Easily adjustable, and holds zero on all the low-recoil arms I've tried. Did not try it on anything like a 12-ga pump, or 6lb 30-06 bolt, etc. Mounted on a rifle with the hood, it's been easy to use the sight, even in bright daylight. Mounted on any of my flat-top type rifles and it is too low without a 1/2" riser for a proper cheekweld. The reticle will shift slightly when you're not perfectly lined up with it. If you have a repeatable cheekweld then it's good enough for most people. There is a little white center-mark on the lower edge to facilitate this. Did not review sight on a pistol.

I now own three of these. I got the first one for my turkey shotgun after having some focus issues with my eyes. I hate to admit it, but I am getting a bit older as far as my eyes and a couple of gobblers got out of Dodge when using my turkey scope and/or the vent rib. I researched forever trying to figure out if I wanted 8 or 3 moa and I am so glad I got the 3 as it doesn't cover up my target too much which forces me to aim a bit better. My turkey season last year was a lot more successful with it and after taking that pounding (my 12 gauge kicks like a mule) it still holds the first zero and I haven't adjusted it one bit. Next I decided I wanted to try one of these out on my new handgun; a Canik TP9SFX. Talk about quick to set up and zero, and start dinging the metal target I have. Before this pistol and this set up I couldn't hit the proverbial barn with any type of pistol. I don't know how many times I said I would never own a pistol cause I could never hit anything with em. The Canik and the FF3 sure changed that. That Canik came with just the right optics plate I needed and its just a sturdy, quality set up. I also just got a Taurus TX22 and after once again not being able to focus well on the rear, front, and target with the open sights it was just a no brainer to get the FF3 again. I mean you push the button once and it auto adjusts to the light outside. It has two other settings, but I have never needed them in any light, in any hunting situation, or any target shooting I have done. Hit the button three more times to turn it off. I like simple and dependable things. This is it. I have also never had a battery run out on me yet, but I do have some spares just in case. About the only thing I could ever say bad about it is to just be patient with putting the battery in it and tightening the lid as I can see how it would be easy to strip, but being able to not have to take the sight off the gun to put a new battery in it is well worth being careful putting the battery lid back on. And most sights I have seen like this have similar battery compartments if it is on the top of the sight. For me, this sight lets me continue to hunt and shoot the way I was taught; safely, accurately, and always in focus. I also never leave reviews so I hope that tells you something too!
