Re: 3 MOA vs. 8 MOA
If you want a bigger dot with the 3, just turn it up more, right? Brighter, not bigger. I've bought 4 FF3's 8 MOA. I have two Trijicon Reflexes at 6.5 MOA. I've had an Aimpoint, 1 MOA. I like the bigger dot. An 8 MOA theoretically covers 3.2" disc at 40 yards. If the dot obscures the head, the...

Re: How far would go to retrieve golf ball?
Darwinism at work. Screwing with a gator is stupid. I can't believe he got away without getting chomped. A few years ago a local golfer lost an arm when he reached into water's edge to retrieve a ball. The gator was in stealth mode looking for a meal. It grabbed the golfer's hand and did a death rol...

Ronnie, William will make it right and do what it takes to please you. I've heard this over and over the years and have first hand experience. I had William make a choke for a buddy's Yildiz .410 that wouldn't pattern well enough with the factory choke. He sleeved it to the barrel. When we shot it, ...

Re: eotech or burris ff3?
I've purchased 4 for myself and friends. All have been 8 moa by choice. If a Burris 336 mount can be mounted on a cantilever arm, that's what I'd do. To keep a low profile I would avoid the Picatinny mount if possible. Otherwise you would have to use a neoprene sleeve comb raising kit which is not t...

Re: new or used burris fastifre 2 or one
Spur, I have click dyslexia when it comes to relying on calculating clicks. Invariably, I turn them the wrong direction. After zeroing a lead shell at 20 yards, I set up at 40. First shot is at target center marked by a black dot. I lock the gun into a workmate (don't have a lead sled which would be...

Re: new or used burris fastifre 2 or one
Check ebay. I see a few there. Prices have really dropped on the 3. Seeing them on ebay under $210 with free shipping. Main advantage (for me) of 3 over 2 is battery removal can be done without taking the red dot off the mount. Gil

Re: eotech or burris ff3?
The size of the eotech isnt a problem? From the ones ive seen they seem to be real big. This is just a matter of personal prefrence. For years, I shot an SBE with an Aimpoint. Two of my guns have Trijicon Reflexes. Both the Aimpoint and Trijicon Reflexes are larger than the Eotech. On my .410 and 2...

Re: eotech or burris ff3?
If you are going to take the cost out of consideration, I'd substitute the Trijicon RMR for both. I like the size of the FF3 for my use; no question the Eotec is a tougher red dot, higher quality, etc. The RMR is not much bigger than the FF3, powered by fiber optics and a tritium lamp--no batteries....
