Stlhead Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Hello, I have an R8 that currently has a Smith branded tube Aimoint knock off on it and I am considering putting something else on it. I plan on using the gun for steel and possibly some fun matches. C-more? Fast fire? I am leaning to the C-more, but have toyed with the idea of an Aimpoint T-1. Tough little red dot, but not sure how it would be on a pistol. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revopop Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 My girlfriend's ruger has an Optima on it, which is the same as a Fastfire. After using a borrowed gun with a C-More with an 8min dot, I much prefer it over the Optima. It's faster to pick up, and the bigger dot felt much faster to me.

vrmn1 Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 They jury is still out on whether or not I will shoot open in anything steel or ICORE but I am trying the FASTFIRE just because I like how low it can be mounted. I know Pinshooters C-more mount is low but I think the JP mount for the Fastfire, Doctor,Optima, ect is still a good bit lower. I tired it practicing on steel today and did OK a huge change for me though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaxshooter Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 I have two 627s one is 38 super and one 38/357. I have a J Point on one and a C-More on the other. I prefer the C-more probably because I shoot open and am use to the C-More. The new Aimpoint might be nice on a revolver. I would like to try one but they are to pricey if you ended up not liking it.

Stlhead Posted March 8, 2009 Author Share Posted March 8, 2009 I could actually pull a T-1 off of a carbine to try it out so all I would need is to get a low mount from Larue and re-zero if I put it back on the carbine. I have a C-more on my open bottom feeder and I like it, but it is pretty high off the bore and takes a little getting used to. I just was wanting a little feedback before a plunged down either path. If I do the C-more I think that Pinshooter's mount looks like the way to go. Thanks guys for the opinions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
