Product Features
|
The lightweight, low profile FastFire II features a light sensor that automatically adjusts the dot's brightness to the surrounding condition. |
Constructed of metal for strength and durability, the FastFire II's lenses are precision-ground and polished to exacting geometries to virtually eliminate parallax and provide a clear, crisp sight picture. Fully windage and elevation adjustable and lockable, the sight features both an on/off switch and a light sensor that automatically adjusts the dot's brightness to the surrounding conditions. An included plastic hood covers the light sensor and puts the unit in sleep mode when the on/off switch is set to "on." The Picatinny Mount allows mounting on just about any rifle, and special bases are available for most common firearms.

This review is from: Burris FastFire Red-Dot Reflex Sight with Picatinny Mount ( 4 MOA Dot Reticle) (Sports)
This is my second fast-fire for a competitive handgun application, so obviously I like the product. It is lightweight and durable, and has a dot that is relatively easy to see in a variety of light conditions, and for it's price range it is the sharpest red dot on the market. Having said that, the adjustments are not the most user friendly. To adjust point of aim, the user must first loosen the locking screws make the adjustment in either horizontal or vertical, then tighten the locking screws. The process must then be repaseted for the remaining axis. All this is done with a micro screw driver (provided with the sight), and itty-bitty screws with tiny little hard-to-see screw heads. In addition, a very small movement of the screw results in a big movement in point of aim. However, after the initial hour or so that it takes to get the sight set up and locked down, it stays on target without the need for readjustment. My problem may be that I like to try my sights on different firearms to see where they balance and feel the best. Comparatively, I have two Eotech's with easy to adjust external controls, and I can freely switch them from one firearm to another, and sight in within five minutes or less. I also have an Ultradot, which exceeds the optic quality and reticle versatility of the fast-fire, and is also much more user friendly to set up, but both the Eotechs and the Ultradot are somewhat bulky, and weigh about 3 to 4 times as much as the fast-fire. If you're a competitive shooter, you know that half way through a long day of competition, a little less weight can make a big difference in your ability to score points. I guess there are always compromises. I like the fast-fire, and I am hopeful that the next generation of the fast-fire has some modifications to make it easier to set up. If the inconvenience of taking additional time to set up your sights is not a concern, then by all means this is a good buy.

This review is from: Burris FastFire Red-Dot Reflex Sight with Picatinny Mount ( 4 MOA Dot Reticle) (Sports)
The Burris FastFire II works as advertised. However, it does have some flaws. The red dot is simply too bright on other than very bright days. The instructions say not to do this, but I find that three layers of masking tape over the automatic eye is just about right on a cloudy day to get the dot brightness down to a useable level. If not for that I would put this unit in a drawer and not use it.
The optional Glock mounting plate is not confidence inspiring. On the standard thin framed models, mine is a Glock 35, the mounting plate is properly sized. It does not work on the large framed Glocks, .45 cal and 10mm, at all. Mounting the base plate on my Glock 35 worked best when the included star washers were used with every screw, something that was not very clear from the instructions. Use loctite on all screws and torque only to the stated torque. The mounting plate is then minimally secure. Don't try and wiggle it--you may succeed! Now, go shoot, but keep your fingers crossed that the unit will stay attached.
