I put a Vortex Sparc 2 read dot on one of my AR15s. I got its for $99.99 with my military discount. I'm going to use it for a home defense gun.
What optics do you use for home defense /k/?
Here's down the sight.
I too use a sparc II for my ar. But for home defense I just have a sigsp2022 in 9mm.

How do you like the Sparc II? I had a hard time sighting it in because it was so far off when I got it.
>>29767218
I have a primary arms microdot for my ak74.
Which I literally never zeroed or use. A nice $300 paperweight
>>29767247
I like it a lot actually. I sighted mine in at 25 meters to get it on, then 100. It only took about 10 rounds.
>>29767218
Should have gotten an Advanced micro dot
Smaller, better battery life, better FOV
>>29767300
Mounting stuff cost $140
>>29767306
I'm guessing you mean to mount it to an AK?
Just a reminder that you are 30x more likely to accidentally shoot yourself with a home defense firearm than you are to defend yourself from a home invasion.
>>29767338
how do you quantify 30x?
>>29767313
Yup. Might sell the mounting stuff and use the dot for my ar.

> Vortex Strikefire II
> Vortex Viper PST
> Aimpoint PRO
Whichever one is closest.
>>29767338
It's impossible to accidentally shoot yourself unless you're a complete retard, meaning it's illegal for you to own guns in the first place.
>>29767396
its a nice damn dot, mayne
It's been on my AR for...fuck I don't even know how long and the dot still runs and has held zero well even on a shitty UTG riser
>>29767218
Had mine for about a year and finally got it zeroed two weeks ago for 25 yards. Awesome sight when it's on.
>>29767447
>Awesome sight when it's on.
Well yeah, it wouldn't be very effective when it's off
>>29767452
On referring to its zero. Coincidentally, it is quite effective when it's off with BUIS. I have it lower 1/3 cowitness. Nothing gets in the way and transition from dot to irons is smooth.
>>29767338
> small price to pay
>>29767230
That seems obtrusive. I just use a glock for HD, but if i wanted a rifle with an optic, I'd want it to be as open as possible. Like the actual red dot sight from CoD4, or something similar.
>>29767218
You need an aim point t2, with flip up sights. Mount it to an integrally suppressed 10.5 inch upper. Must have at minimum a peq-16 with pressure pad. If you trust you and your families lives to anything but the best possible weapon combination money can buy you, you are a terrible person. You wouldn't send your sick child to the cheapest doctor would you. Take some cqb classes. Learn to protect those you love.
>>29767564
Ok james I'll get right on that
>>29767550
only companies that make that type of optic are cheap as shit and break easily
I wish someone would make one that was shit, though because they're pretty nice for FOV
Also
>not using 2 eyes open
Anyone have experience with the Burris fastfire, or maybe that snazzy combo they have with the tactical scope for $500 or whatever the fuck it is?
seems a lot for an optic, but this would be for my home defense Beretta CX4.
>>29767593
>HURR DURR got my double barrel boom stick.
Use a real weapon tard. Watch a tactical video sometime. Protect what is yours
>>29767606
>paying that much for shit battery life
>>29767606
RMRs are like 500 right? Just get that breh
>>29767396
Selling the mount you say?
>>29767218
>>Optic
>>For home-defense
Just mount a flashlight or fucking ziptie a cheap small one on your shotgun or AR. You literally don't need one unless you live in a mansion/castle with hallways being more than 25 yards is the norm. If fun and a heavy wallet is telling you to use an optic for indoors, then get a NV scope with flash hider/suppressor.

>>29767606
Yes. The Burris lives up to its name. I mounted one in my ar, and it promptly caught one fire. I threw a few of them in my survival bag.
>>29767614
You realize how much a sperg you sound like right now right
>>29767620
Thingken of doing it.
>>29767822
Cool 4chan word
>>29767564
Nigga you crazy
I just grab a slam bang with some 3 inch shells of buckshot
