Frequently Asked Questions:
Question: Is the 8 MOA version of this product more suited to the shotgun applications? The red dot being larger for close ranges.
Answer: 8 MOA means having this range at 100 yards. Likely to work fine for the shotguns.
Question: Will the fast fire red-dot reflex sight work fine with my glock 23.3 gen?
Answer: It depends if your slide could be cut to get an optic. It won’t otherwise. The ones manufactured by the factory do not have the right cuts for the mounting
Question: Is it likely to fit onto my glock 34 mos? If so, would it mess with my rear iron sights?
Answer: Yes, the Burris fast fire red-dot reflex sight will fit on a glock 34mos. For the rear sight, you may take the help from co-witness, replacing the iron sights. This would improve the situation a lot.
Question: Does the Fast Fire II require adapter to mount over a Browning Buckmark rail mount?
Answer: No, it does not need an additional adapter. The Browning Buckmark alone is good enough. The Burris fast fire can easily mount over Picatinny and Weaver. Though the Burris fast fire red-dot reflex sight does come with four adapters for better adaptability. The adapters may be turned upside down to adjust the fittings.

Testimonials:
- Ditta:
Decided to buy this product after a previous failure with another one. Everything is great so far. I use it mounted over a Burris MTAX scope. The zeroes are still not lost, the brightness is sufficient for daytime shooting and the recoil is superb, just what I wanted.
- Richard J. Holloway:
The sight delivers on the expectations. I am just not too happy with the fact that I need to remove it from its base whenever the battery needs to be changed. It required a re-sighting once the battery was changed, not something you want during a match. If only I had spent a few more bucks to buy the Fast Fire III.
- Bryan:
This happens to be among the best red dots available in this price. It is easy to mount, easy to use and the zero is steady. I use for an S&W .22 pistol and it’s so much fun to shoot with that. Feels like cheating.
