   First time using a dot optic. Was easy to zero using my Triumph Systems Laser Bore-sight.
   At first it was taking me too long to get the Dot into view. Then I tried holding Pistol closer vs arm’s-length, now it comes right into sight. The auto-brightness seems to work well. My Kimber R7 Mako has and RMSc cut-out, this said it fit. It fit perfectly. I removed the included rear-Sights as it co-witnesses with mine just fine. At lower brightness, the dot seems smaller. The Dot is sharp. And the price was so low when I bought it.

   I am an old-timer (real years and red-dot years), having bought an Aimpoint (stupid heavy and big) way back when. That cured me of holographic sights for sometime, but aging eyes made me try again, with Burris Fastfire–not this one, the previous ones. More recently, the Vortex Defender CCW, much tougher than the flimsy Fastfires. All my prior dots were somewhere around 3 moa, so I was wary of a 6 moa dot, but this C not only looked tough, it also fit directly on my new P322. And the price was right. Turned out to be so good, I moved it to my Buck Mark (replacing a not-too-bad Crimson Trace). The “always on” tech beats the “shake awake” by a country mile. The dot is certainly good out to 15 or 20 meters (the distance I shoot pistols). Windage/elevation screws use a very small flat screwdriver, and work OK. Have not had trouble with inadvertent settings change. Although I want tritium iron sights for EDC and bedside, this is the only dot I would use at the range. One gripe: the glass is not receded enough at the front (Burris should look at the Vortex Defender) so it gets smudged too easily.

   I purchased this RMSC micro dot to replace the pre installed Holosun 407k x2 on the Mossberg 940 Pro Tactical Shotgun. The Burris FastFire C is a perfect fit, it held zero after 250 rounds of buck, slugs, and birdshots! I rated it 4 stars because the battery is installed at the bottom which will require for the dot to be removed.

   Direct bolt on to a Glock 48 MOS. Very bright and installed in moments. Comes with an assortment of screws to fit your application.

   I have a bad astigmatism and finding optics is not easy. I have bought several, one in particular which was supposed to be perfect for astigmatism and it was horrible for me. Someone at the big box sporting goods store suggested I try Burris. The price was right so I gave it a try. All of them work and Burris customer service was excellent.

   Easy to use, hold a zero and well made. No matter which one you choose you should be happy. As a matter of fact I took my pistol for some work to a gunsmith and when he was done he mentioned that he never saw one mounted as most pistols come in with the ultra high end optics, and really liked it.

   I have three Burris Fastfire 3 red dots on various long guns. The Fastfire C has long intrigued me, being even smaller and lighter. So I mounted it on a G48 MOS — no interface required, proper screws supplied. I couldn’t notice any increase in weight, and the pistol functioned with the expected Glock reliability using a variety of loads. Results on the target were a real improvement. Note that when you go from iron sights to a red dot on a handgun, the dot shows every twitch and wiggle. It can be discouraging at first; you need to commit to the sight and practice.

   I love the small size with the large window. It’s made of reinforced polymer and feels very strong. I did not need to adjust it. When I put it on my pistol it was dead on. It is bright and has both auto brightness and set brightness modes. You can also turn the unit off entirely if you’re storing the pistol. The red dot is a perfect size, not too small or too big. My only gripe is the activation button. I find myself pressing it inadvertently when racking a round. But you can do that without hitting the button. Depending on how you carry the pistol you could accidentally press the button while carrying. That would turn off the unit if you have it set to the last on setting which is auto brightness. The next press is off.
   I do recommend it. It’s great red dot with a good price.

   In the big world of micro/pistol red dots, we’re used to most being a RMR type mount. This is a smaller, RMS-C type optic. I posted a picture that shows what models and makes it fits; make sure to check! This is even smaller than most of your pistol red dots, made for carry guns/compact pistols with slide cuts. The optic itself is beautiful, well made and feature rich. Polymer housing, crystal clear, curved glass. This is some of the clearest glass I’ve ever seen on a micro red dot. For example, on my CCW rig, I have a popular brand of optic on there and there’s a blueish hue which doesn’t lend itself well to shooting at dusk. This glass is very, very clear with no hue of any color in the glass. The brightness adjustments are just done with one button on the left of the optic to cycle between 1-5 brightness settings, which then auto adjust to your lighting in any new environment. The optic should go very low or off when in the dark, assuming it’s holstered or in a safe. There’s texturing on the front of the housing, should you need to use it to rack a slide, and there’s a hood over it to protect the glass. The optic also only weighs half an ounce. I love that it comes with small rear site nubs that are removable… Also a white line in the middle just for quicker target acquisition if you’re trying to co-witness your sights. Only downside about those removable rear nubs up top is that it is not a top mounted battery. You do have to remove the optic to replace the battery. That being said, it does boast a 25,000 hour battery life, which is 2-3 years. This is achievable because of their light, sensing technology that allows you to set your brightness, and it will adjust in different light settings to save battery life, and not be too bright or too dark. It comes with many screws to mount, backup batteries and a no questions asked lifetime warranty. If you’re looking for a feature rich compact micro red dot on a middle of the road budget with a fantastic warranty, I would strongly recommend the Burris FastFire C.

   This is very good but it doesn’t fit. They are made very nice and durable. My husband really love it but just doesn’t work .please refund our money, thank you very much.

    Does not hold zero after several rounds, red “dot” is blown out and almost gives two points of aim. Contacted customer service, took them 3 days to respond just to tell me to mail it to them and to expect it back in 5-6 weeks.

    That’s if when they receive it, they take ownership and actually do what’s right. I’m not willing to take that chance after spending $200.

    The packaging was nice and adjustability was a good touch, but what is the point of any of that if it cant hold zero after setting. I would understand if after 250 rounds I would have to readjust windage, but after 4 rounds on the Hellcat Pro Comp with a reduced recoil system, not worth it in my experience.
